The Monday, September 8th “season premiere” edition of WWE RAW scored a final cable rating of 2.88, according to Nielsen Media Research. The 2.88 final draw marks an increase compared to the 2.81 rating that the show drew last week.
As noted earlier today, Monday’s RAW averaged 3.986 million viewers, which was also up from the average of 3.920 million viewers who tuned into the show last week.
The surprising part about this week’s RAW numbers is the fact that the show managed to increase in both the final rating and in overall viewership despite heavy competition from the NFL, which premiered its’ double-header of Monday Night Football against RAW.
