Monday Night Raw suffered a hefty decline in the ratings this week, getting only 1,725,000 viewers, down 171,000 viewers from last week’s broadcast.

Hour one started with 1,762,000 viewers, then grew slightly to 1,800,000 viewers, before ending the night with 1,613,000 viewers.

The show was #5, #6, and #8 in the top 50 cable chart among the 18-49 demographic with 0.50, 0.48, and 0.45 respectively.

Things are going to get scary from next week with the return of Monday Night Football and ratings are expected to reach record lows in the weeks to come. (Ratings credit: Showbuzzdaily.com)
