WWE Raw ratings (Mar. 9, 2015): Viewers up but not by much

With WWE just three weeks out from the WrestleMania 31 pay-per-view (PPV) scheduled for Sun., Mar. 29, 2015, at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, the idea that the company's flagship program, Monday Night Raw, can't get over an average of four million viewers on a consistent basis seems preposterous.

Yet that's exactly what is happening.

Last week's show drew 3.82 million viewers while this week's episode got up to just 3.86 million. The hourly breakdown reveals not a single hour hit the 4 million mark.

Hour one: 3.69 million
Hour two: 3.93 million
Hour three: 3.94 million

Daylight savings time could be to blame for the shift in viewing habit -- the last hour being the highest over the first, as had been the pattern -- but either way it's troubling that what should be the highest drawing time of the year for WWE is proving to be anything but.
