WWE Smackdown Live viewership for the first show after Backlash - Pro Wrestling Dot Net
Tuesday’s WWE Smackdown Live averaged 2.328 million viewers for USA Network, according to Showbuzzdaily.com. The number was up from the 2.175 million count from last Tuesday’s edition.
Powell’s POV: Viewership improved for the first show with Jinder Mahal as champion. It was not a great number, but the show was opposed by the NBA Playoff game that delivered over seven million viewers for TNT. We hope to have the actual rating later today.

Jinder doing numbers against an unbelievable playoff game. Like they said... it ain't great, but the last few playoff games SD went against only did 4 million compared to the 7 million this one did... but yet Jinder still brought in the viewers
This gon be a long ride for cacbeards

NBA had to have an effect. Boston was leading and LeBron had four fouls.
The thread numbers don't lie.

I planned to watch SD and just flip to the game sporadically. Once Boston went up like 11-5 I only flipped back once for the Mahal celebration. By the time Kyrie took over and Bron started cooking again SD was already off.
WWE SmackDown ratings up one percent this week
With no competition from the NBA or NHL playoffs, SmackDown was up, very slightly, to 2.35 million viewers on Tuesday night.
The show was third for the night in total viewers on cable and was first in the 18-49 demo with a 0.77 rating.
This was actually the highest number for SmackDown since the April 25th episode, which did 2.493 million viewers. SmackDown also retained over 90 percent of the Raw audience from Monday night, which is only the second time that has happened this year.
Ratings have been down since last month's roster shakeup, but this is a sign that they are starting to stabilize. The average SmackDown viewership has been 2.483 million since last July's brand extension and 2.599 million for the 2017 calendar year.
The show was built around a five-way elimination match to determine a number one contender for Naomi's Women's title (which ended up not happening), as well as Randy Orton's first appearance since losing his WWE title to current champion Jinder Mahal.

WWE Smackdown Live viewership - Pro Wrestling Dot Net
Tuesday’s WWE Smackdown Live averaged 2.349 million viewers for USA Network, according to Showbuzzdaily.com. The number was down just a tick from the 2.350 million count from last Tuesday’s edition.
Powell’s POV: Smackdown hype focussed on the Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Kevin Owens main event. There were no NBA or NHL finals games airing opposite Smackdown this week. We hope to have the actual rating later today.

In my own league.
Honestly with the tag team division finding its groove, I don't think they are needed right now.
I would find it cool if Angle came back on Smackdown after all these years to be their manager (these dudes can't talk and have zero personality), but instead he's stuck on RAW. *sigh*
