WWE SmackDown Viewership Dips On Election Night

This week’s WWE SmackDown viewership brought in 2.088 million viewership, which is down from 2.110 million viewers last week.

This week’s show was the 23rd overall ranked show in total viewership, and the 17th ranked show in the 18-49 demographic. While this week’s show was the third lowest show of the year so far (behind the July 3rd and October 23rd show), it did go up against last night’s coverage of the midterm elections on a number of networks.

By comparison, the WWE SmackDown viewership during the last Presidential Election brought in 1.921 million viewers in 2016, dropping nearly 250,000 from the previous week’s show (on 11/1). That following week also saw an 804,000 increase when WWE aired Smackdown 900 on November 15th, 2016.

This week’s episode of WWE SmackDown Live was taped in Manchester, England yesterday.
