Re: ratings
The rating for Raw the week before the draft was 3.3. The draft itself in the two normal hours for Raw did a 3.7. They were at 3.5 the next two weeks but dropped to 3.2 last week.
That shows a big bump for the draft show and they managed to hold some of that extra audience for the next two weeks. But last week it was back down to pre-draft levels. This week, coming off a PPV, maybe they will rise back up.
For Smackdown, the week before the draft had a rating of 2.1. (Keep in mind cable and network ratings are figured differently.) The episode after the draft did a 2.5. That is a big jump without something like the draft as a hook. And last weeks rating was a 2.7.
Smackdown has been doing very well since the draft, which is when HHH and others moved over. Raw had the benefit of the draft to bring in new viewers, but doesnt look like it is keeping them.
