7/11 WWE SmackDown Draws 1.39 Million Viewers – The July 11 episode of WWE SmackDown saw a significant viewership increase as the final stop before a stacked weekend of WWE programming, including Saturday Night’s Main Event and WWE Evolution 2.
According to Programming Insider, SmackDown drew 1.399 million viewers on the USA Network, a notable jump from the 1.166 million viewers the show brought in on July 4. The episode also scored a 0.37 rating in the coveted 18–49 demographic, up from the 0.32 posted the previous week. These numbers were strong enough for SmackDown to finish #1 on cable for the night.
The increase comes amid a major shift in WWE’s summer schedule, with SmackDown continuing to build momentum despite its recent move to cable from broadcast TV. The July 11 episode featured high-profile storylines and star power leading into the weekend’s premium events.
Highlights from the show included a celebrity appearance from Grammy-winning artist Jelly Roll, who pulled Logan Paul off Randy Orton during a heated segment. The Wyatt Sicks—represented by Joe Gacy and Dexter Lumis—also captured the WWE Tag Team Championships, defeating The Street Profits in a dark and physical encounter.
