The September 11 WWE Friday Night SmackDown averaged 1.220 million viewers for USA Network, according to Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics.com. The number was down compared to the previous episode’s 1.3 million average.
Powell’s POV: Friday’s SmackDown finished with a 0.29 rating in the 18-49 demographic, equal to the previous week’s 0.29 rating. I’m a little surprised that the viewership wasn’t higher, but there was a lot of special 9/11 programming and several college football games on Friday night. One year earlier, the September 12, 2025, SmackDown averaged 1.316 million viewers and a 0.37 rating for USA Network.
