WWE SmackDown Live ratings (June 25, 2019): Mysterious

Was it the lure of an explanation for Undertaker’s surprise appearance the night before? Due to it being a pay-per-view (PPV) fallout episode? Maybe it’s because of the buzz generated by that viral smash hit, the 24/7 championship? Or is it just something we shouldn’t be celebrating, since it’s still down from years prior?

We don’t know. We can only tell you the numbers.

And in viewership and rating, the June 25 edition of SmackDown LIVE was up from the week before. The audience remained under two million, but did grow by approximately 62K from Tues., June 18 to hit 1,921,000. That made SmackDown the 8th most watched cable original on Tuesday night, trailing the usual Fox News shows, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow and the College World Series on ESPN.

The blue brand’s .62 overall share of the 18-49 year old audience was its best in a month, and gave WWE the highest rated original program on cable last night.
