Think that was even worse than I was expecting. No complaints though.
Looking it up, pretty easily set a new record low. Like not even close to the previous one. Even the first hour was well below it.

And that's with Monday Night Football getting some of its worst ratings in years

If its still in the Top Five on Cable, USA won't care. Honestly, yeah, they probably will. Most of their recent shows have not been doing that well and the reason SmackDown was brought over to begin with was to help shore up the network average. If Raw stops being able to hold up its end of that bargain there's going to be a problem. Don't figure USA would want to cancel them or anything, but could see this leading to more in the way of micromanaging and of network mandates, and chances are USA's going to lowball them next time they're up for renewal given they did so last time anyway back when WWE's viewership was much stronger than it is now.

I'm not saying it's the booking, but if I booked like this on EWR, I'd be fired.

And the potentially scary thing for WWE is that so far Smackdown has followed Raw's ratings trend, good or bad. Obviously regular season NFL is a big enough deal to break the trend but the ratings for tonight's show will be very interesting.

I'm hoping beyond hope Backlash gives SmackDown a boost, people like what they see, and it beats Raw on a weekly basis from now on. But we shall see.

Can you blame people for turning it off? This shit is horrid. I quit somewhere around the 10pm mark. A little before I think. I'm sorry but these "new" guys and girls coupled with this absolutely shitty writing is turning me off of watching. It's just making for some really boring television.
As a personal thing: can they please get rid of Chris Jericho already? I'm so sick and tired of his act. I cringe every time he shows up on screen and this pseudo-gay for Kevin Owens thing he's doing isn't entertaining at all. It's time for him to go away. I don't care where he goes as long as it's away.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way towards these so-called new guys but none of them are charasmatic at all. I've never seen characters in anything this dull.

Clearly it's the fault of cord cutting or football. Only explanation.
Can't be viewers sick of Stephanie all over the screen, some historically bad writing, no one getting over with the way things are booked, or the 3 hour drain.

Ouch. And that's despite the fact that the two NFL games were not exactly stellar!

I'll never understand why USA asked for RAW to have a third hour. Even Vince knows 3 hours is too much. He's gone on record as saying his perfect show length would be 90 minutes. 3 hours is just too long for a weekly wrestling show. It's too much.
