“Smackdown Live” Ratings and Audience – March 6, 2018

That’s not good. This coming Sunday will see “Smackdown Live” present “Fastlane 2018” as the final stop on the Road to Wrestlemania. The show has prevented WWE from fully focusing on the biggest show of the year and that’s creating some problems. Have fans been all that interested in the build to this show?

Miss last night’s show? Here are some quick highlights:

Top 10 SmackDown LIVE moments: WWE Top 10, March 6, 2018

According to 411mania.com, this week’s episode of “Smackdown Live” drew a .75 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.58 million viewers. These numbers are down 13% and 4% respectively from last week’s .86 rating and 2.692 million viewers. The show was headlined by a fatal five way match featuring Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, Baron Corbin, Dolph Ziggler and AJ Styles.

Opinion: Well duh. This week’s show didn’t feature John Cena, but more importantly it did feature the build to a show that isn’t coming off like it matters in the slightest. This show comes off as a show that has to take place for the sake of filling in a spot on the calendar. You can tell that it’s not very important and there’s no hiding that.

Here’s how the main event went down.
