• This week’s “Day 1” edition of RAW drew 1.75 million viewers with a 0.60 rating in the 18-49 demo, which is up from last week’s 698,000 viewers with a 0.18 rating for the 2023 highlight show.
The Rock’s return segment on TV drew 2.15 million viewers with a 0.79 rating in the 18-49 demo (which equals to 1 million viewers in the 18-49 age group), which is a number that RAW hasn’t done in a while.
RAW faced tough competition this past Monday. In the college football playoff semifinals, the Michigan vs. Alabama Rose Bowl game attracted 27.2 million viewers and reached a peak of 32.8 million during a period that overlapped with the early part of RAW.
The other playoff semifinal, the Washington vs. Texas Sugar Bowl game, which went against the last two hours of RAW, including The Rock’s appearance, drew 18.4 million viewers.
