WWE SmackDown viewership dropped on March 24.
According to Wrestlenomics, 2.219 million viewers tuned in, which is down from last week, when 2.258 million viewers watched the show.
In the 18 to 49 demographic, SmackDown scored a 0.58 rating, which is slightly down from the 0.59 rating the March 17 episode drew in the same demographic.
Per Wrestlenomics, the viewership number for the March 24 episode of SmackDown was the show’s lowest of 2022; coverage of the Elite Eight in the NCAA men’s basketball tournament proved to be stiff competition.
This week’s episode featured a singles match between Cody Rhodes and Ludwig Kaiser. In the main event, Kevin Owens hosted the “KO Show”, and Sami Zayn was his special guest. Elsewhere on the show, Rey Mysterio battled LA Knight.
