– This week’s WWE SmackDown, featuring Randy Orton and Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Rusev and WWE Champion Jinder Mahal in the main event, drew 2.455 million viewers. This is down 8.6% from last week’s 2.685 million viewers for the post-SummerSlam episode.
SmackDown was #9 in viewership, behind The Have & Have Nots, Rachel Maddow, Tucker Carlson, Special Report, The Story, Hannity, Last Word and The Five. SmackDown #1 in the 18-49 demographic on cable this week.
