Did "Smackdown Live's" Audience Hold Up?

Good enough for a win. With the WWE over in the UK for the week, it shouldn’t be that surprising when the ratings and audience aren’t all that high. The fans have caught on to the fact that the shows from England just aren’t going to mean all that much and the spoilers make things even worse. So how bad did things for “Smackdown Live” this week?

Actually not much worse than they had been before, though to be fair that’s not saying too much. According to 411mania, this week’s show drew a .74 rating and 2.348 million viewers, which are down 1% and up 2% respectively from last week. Unfortunately that’s still the lowest rating and the second lowest audience of the year. Either way, it’s still better than the major drop that “Monday Night Raw” received.

Opinion: What does it say that the show only staying at the lowest levels of the year isn’t the worst news of the week? I know a lot of this has to do with the NBA Playoffs and the show being in England but that still doesn’t make things much better. The fans just aren’t interested at the moment and it’s really starting to show.
