This week’s RAW saw its ratings drop as expected because of the July 4th holiday. According to Brandon Thurston of WrestleNomics, the episode drew an average of 1.563 million viewers on the USA Network, down from the 1.951 million viewers last week.
The 18-49 demo saw the average rating be 0.37, down from the 0.54 rating last week. This was the fallout edition of Raw from last Saturday’s Money in the Bank.
