The ‘go home’ show for Extreme Rules started to get WWE’s Tuesday night numbers headed in the right direction, and the fallout episode of the blue brand kept things going.
On July 17, SmackDown‘s audience increased by more than 100K viewers to 2,293,000. That again made it the sixth most watched among cable originals on the night, behind the usual political talk shows on Fox News and MSNBC.
It’s demographic rating among 18 - 49 year olds was up for the second week in a row. WWE won the night on cable with .74, it’s second best Tuesday night share since May 1.
