Smackdown Viewership Numbers Continue To Fall

WWE's viewership numbers continue to fall.

This week's episode of Smackdown, averaged 2.316 million viewers in the overnights, according to Showbuzz Daily. This is a drop from last week's 2.340 million viewers.

Smackdown ranked #9 for the night in viewership, with the MLB wild card game and the Vice Presidential debate both blowing WWE out of the water. Tuesday's Smackdown featured the return of The Spirit Squad, and a face-off between Dean Ambrose, AJ Styles and John Cena.

Smackdown hasn't outdrawn Raw in viewership once after the WWE Draft took place in July. Smackdown's No Mercy PPV has some stiff competition this weekend, as they battle NFL Football, the MLB Playoffs, and another Presidential Debate.
