Monday’s August 24th edition of WWE Monday Night Raw did what had to be considered disappointing numbers coming off a big SummerSlam weekend, down slightly from last week, doing 3.72 million viewers, not much above the summer average.
The unadvertised surprises of Sting, Ric Flair, and the Dudleys probably helped minimally, if at all, since few knew ahead of time they would be there.
Raw finished second for the night on cable behind NFL preseason football.
The three hours were:
– 8 p.m. 3.61 million viewers
– 9 p.m. 3.79 million viewers
– 10 p.m. 3.76 million viewers
