SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)...
This week’s WWE Smackdown rating on USA Network among live and same-night-DVR viewers drew a 1.40 rating, back where it was two weeks ago and above the 1.27 record non-holiday low rating from last week.
Total viewership was 1.921 million, above last week’s 1.859 million.
It scored a 0.6 rating in the key 18-49 demographic, good enough to top Tuesday night cable ratings, edging out “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” on Bravo which drew a 0.5 rating. “Christly Knows Best” on USA also scored a 0.5 key demo rating right after Smackdown.
Very low ratings compared to the “heyday” of wrestling.
