Up and down, just like Titus O’Neil. To say it’s been a busy month in the WWE would be a huge understatement. I can’t think of a month before with so much stuff going on at once. While this is certainly going to mess with the wrestlers themselves, it can also cause issues for the fans trying to keep track of everything. Even if they’re confused, all that matters is whether or not those fans are still watching the shows. So did this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw do well?

Miss the show? Here are some quick highlights.

Top 10 Raw moments: WWE Top 10, April 30, 2018

According to 411mania.com, this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw drew a 1.08 rating in the 18-49 demographic rating and 3.066 million viewers. These numbers are up 3% and down 1% over last week’s 1.05 demographic rating and 3.104 million viewers. This week’s show was headlined by an Intercontinental Title match between champion Seth Rollins and challenger Finn Balor while also dealing with the fallout from last Friday’s Greatest Royal Rumble.

Opinion: All said, these aren’t too bad. The numbers did slip but they didn’t slip at any kind of major level. It was building up to Backlash, which isn’t the most interesting show. What should be a lot more interesting, if not important, will be what the numbers do next week. That will be the first show in a long time that isn’t setting something up or having some big moment included. Let’s see what this new roster can do, because at this point it’s hard to say what they have on their hands.
