Smackdown pulled in 2,088,000 viewers this week, down 22,000 viewers from last week’s broadcast. The show was #17 in the top 50 cable chart among the 18-49 demographic, a huge drop from #1 last week.

Smackdown faced heavy competition from news networks due to the election coverage which dominated the whole night in terms of viewers and 18-49 demo. (Ratings credit: Showbuzzdaily.com)
