The number was up from the 2.087 million count from last Tuesday&#8217;s edition.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Powell&#8217;s POV:<\/strong><\/span> The good news is that Smackdown led the night on the cable viewership. The bad news is that the show didn&#8217;t get much of an increase over last week&#8217;s show, which aired opposite a World Series game. Furthermore, WWE gave away AJ Styles vs. Daniel Bryan for the WWE Championship without advertising it ahead of time. The October 31, 2017 edition of Smackdown delivered 2.119 million viewers.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><b>NEW:<\/b> Help support Prowrestling.net when you shop Amazon by starting your online Amazon shopping at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/prowrestling.net\/amazon\">Prowrestling.net\/amazon<\/a>.
