NBCUniversal Comments On WWE’s Declining Viewership

Over the past week, several mainstream media outlets have been reporting on the sharp decline in WWE RAW viewership, including Fox News and the New York Post.

A rep from NBCUniversal issued a brief statement to the New York Post about the situation, showing support for the company they are paying so much to for original content:

“WWE programming delivers one of the most massive live audiences in cable on a weekly basis and is consistently a top performer for our networks,”

The Post article notes that some cannibalization of RAW’s viewership by the WWE Network was expected and WWE stock is up 40% this year.
