This past Friday night's edition of WWE Smackdown finished with a 1.83 cable rating, which is up slightly from the previous week's 1.81 draw.
The show brought in about 2.9 million viewers.
Smackdown last week was headlined by a 20 man Battle Royal Match, which was won by Mark Henry. Randy Orton was advertised in advance to appear on the show as the post-SummerSlam, new World Champion.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
