How Was This Week's WWE SmackDown Viewership With Shinsuke Nakamura Vs. Shelton Benjamin? - WrestlingInc.com

This week's WWE SmackDown, featuring Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Shelton Benjamin in the main event, drew 2.576 million viewers. This is down from last week's 2.888 million viewers, which was the best blue brand viewership of 2018 and the best SmackDown viewership going back to the April 11th, 2017 episode.

This week's show featured fallout from Daniel Bryan getting cleared last week, The New Day vs. The Bludgeon Brothers, Bobby Roode & WWE United States Champion Randy Orton vs. Jinder Mahal & Sunil Singh and Nakamura vs. Benjamin advertised ahead of time. Natalya vs. SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair was also advertised but did not happen due to Flair's minor dental operation from last week.

SmackDown was #4 in viewership for the night on cable, behind Fixer Upper, Hannity and Rachel Maddow. SmackDown was #1 for the night in the 18-49 demographic, for the third week in a row.

WWE Smackdown Live viewership for the WrestleMania go-home show - Pro Wrestling Dot Net

Tuesday’s WWE Smackdown Live averaged 2.467 million viewers for USA Network, according to Showbuzzdaily.com. The number was down from the 2.576 million count from last Tuesday’s edition.

Powell’s POV: The decreased number is discouraging considering this was the WrestleMania go-home show. WWE’s hype on Raw was built around Shane McMahon appearing. The April 4, 2017 edition of Smackdown delivered 2.885 million viewers for the first Smackdown after WrestleMania 33. Last year’s WrestleMania go-home edition delivered 2.698 million viewers.

How the hell are both the go-home shows for RAW and SMACKDOWN doing worse...on the ROAD TO WRESTLEMANIA....better hope this Wrestlemania turns out to be like Wrestlemania 31

WWE Smackdown Live viewership for night two of the Superstar Shakeup - Pro Wrestling Dot Net

Tuesday’s WWE Smackdown Live averaged 2.796 million viewers for USA Network, according to Showbuzzdaily.com. The number was down from the 2.952 million count from last Tuesday’s edition.

Powell’s POV: The April 18, 2017 edition of Smackdown delivered 2.554 million viewers. However, the second night of the Superstar Shakeup on April 11, 2017 delivered 3.105 million viewers. The drop from the post WrestleMania edition was expected, but the decline compared to last year’s Shakeup was a bit surprising. It didn’t help WWE’s cause that the show ran opposite the NBA playoffs.

WWE Smackdown Live viewership - Pro Wrestling Dot Net

Tuesday’s WWE Smackdown Live averaged 2.549 million viewers for USA Network, according to Showbuzzdaily.com. The number was down from the 2.796 million count from last Tuesday’s edition.

Powell’s POV: Smackdown did not take as big of a hit as Raw did this week compared to last week’s numbers. The show was opposed by an NBA playoff game that delivered 3.610 million viewers for TNT. The April 25, 2017 edition of Smackdown delivered a 1.71 rating with 2.493 million viewers.

Brehs, help me out here.... there's something I have yet to figure out about this Usos vs. Bludgeon Brothers feud.

This feud obviously isn't as hot as the Usos vs. New Day feud of last year... but for some odd reason, every video from that feud does crazy #s on Youtube.

Like from this past week when Naomi saved them with the booty meats



2 MILLION... that's far more than any other video from this past SmackDown.

From two weeks ago:



2.4 MILLION, second most views behind Jeff Hardy's SD Debut




3.4 MILLION views from the March 13th SDLive, far more than any video from that episode

WWE Smackdown Live viewership for the Backlash go-home show - Pro Wrestling Dot Net

Tuesday’s WWE Smackdown Live averaged 2.436 million viewers for USA Network, according to Showbuzzdaily.com. The number was down from the 2.549 million count from last Tuesday’s edition.

Powell’s POV: The declining numbers coincide with the NBA playoff game delivering over 5.5 million viewers for TNT last night. The May 2, 2017 edition of Smackdown delivered 2.3 million viewers.

Naomi or the possibility of Naomi = ratings

WWE Smackdown Live viewership coming out of WWE Backlash - Pro Wrestling Dot Net

Tuesday’s WWE Smackdown Live averaged 2.293 million viewers for USA Network, according to Showbuzzdaily.com. The number was down from the 2.436 million count from last Tuesday’s edition.

Powell’s POV: An NBA Playoff game delivered over 4 million viewers for TNT in competition. Nevertheless, this is still a disappointing number given that they advertised three Money in the Bank qualifiers. The May 9, 2017 edition of Smackdown delivered 2.348 million viewers.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That terrible PPV killed the numbers for both shows.

Was expected after that shytshow on Sunday since usually fallout ppv shows get decent ratings
