I will be gathering interesting info from the original thread on Covo. Feel free to post TNA, Smackdown, NXT, Superstars. From re-reading that thread ratings don't mean all that much in terms of draws but here it goes.

*Yes, CM PUNK is my favorite wrestler currently but he like Miz breaks even with ratings, 60/40 Punk loses or gains poorly. Now that that's outta the way...

Background Info:
Raw Ratings on Wrestlemania go-home shows as well as Post-Wrestlemania Raws have gone down over the last five years.

Average losses after 9pm slot: 150,000-200,000
Average gains @ 10pm slot: 500,000
Average losses after 10pm slot: 150,000-200,000
Average gains @ Main Event (around 10:45): 200,000-400,000
Average overrun: about 600,000

Last night's episode of WWE Raw did a 2.94 rating with 4.21 million viewers. Those numbers are both down 3% from last week's numbers and the rating is down 12% from the 3.33 the show drew two weeks ago. It's the first time Raw's been below a 3.0 since February 13th and the second-lowest rating of the year, topping only the January 9th episode against the BCS National Title game.

The show averaged 4.09 million in the first hour and rose to 4.32 million in the second hour. Among cable shows Raw #2 in viewers and demos for the night, trailing the NBA Playoffs. It was down 0.1 more or less cross the board in the demographics.

By comparison, last year's Raw did a 3.08 rating and averaged 4.69 million viewers.

PW Torch has a breakdown of the last three episodes of Raw broken down hour by hour, which you can see below:

April 30th Hour One: 4.99 million viewers
April 30th Hour Two: 4.77 million viewers
May 7th Hour One: 4.43 million viewers
May 7th Hour Two: 4.19 million viewers
May 14th Hour One: 4.09 million viewers
May 14th Hour Two: 4.32 million viewers
