WWE Raw Viewership On 3/22/21 Drops After WWE Fastlane
Monday Night Raw viewership fell this week on a night that would see many matches announced for WWE WrestleMania 37 and The Fiend’s Raw ressurection.
According to Showbuzz Daily, the March 22 episode of Raw averaged 1.816 million viewers, which is down from the 1.843 million viewers the March 15 episode drew.
This was yet another announcement-heavy episode with multiple high-stakes matches being announced for WrestleMania 37 including matches with Rhea Ripley, Shane McMahon, and Bad Bunny.
In the ratings, this week’s episode of Raw drew a 0.56 rating in the 18-49 demo, which is identical to last week’s number.
Monday Night Raw was not the most-watched program in the coveted 18 to 49 demographic this week. NCAA Basketball holds that distinction. For the second straight week, the third hour was the most viewed hour.
