Tuesday’s WWE Smackdown Live averaged 1.833 million viewers for USA Network, according to Showbuzzdaily.com. The number was down from the 2.072 million count from last Tuesday’s edition.
Powell’s POV: WWE has a real problem. The numbers for Raw and Smackdown continue to fall and Raw is widely regarded as a creative mess. Smackdown finished seventh in the 18-49 demographic behind the NBA and NHL playoffs, Curse of Oak Island, and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The May 1, 2018 edition of Smackdown delivered 2.436 million viewers.
