WWE Raw only dropped slightly in its 2024 viewership average compared to 2023, a big win for the company considering the loss of cable homes from year to year.

In 2024, the average Raw viewership was of 1,656,075, which is down only just over 38,000 viewers from the average of 1,694,173 from 2023.

The slight less in viewership is also helped by the fact that Raw moved to two hours on October 7, limiting the heavy losses against NFL’s Monday Night Football, which was the usual heavy competition for the broadcast.

Raw had one show which surpassed the 2 million viewers on average and that was the night after WrestleMania 40 which drew 2,360,000 viewers. Apart from that, the first hour of the January 29 episode and the first hour of the August 12 episode were the only ones which did over 2 million viewers.

In the 18-49 demo, Raw averaged a 0.53 rating, slightly up from the 0.52 it did in 2023, so the audience was a bit younger with the over 50 viewership dropping. Their biggest 18-49 demo was the Raw After Mania with a 0.83 rating.

Raw had a few very bad nights in 2024, with the September 23 episode doing the second-lowest Raw ever with 1,338,000 viewers, saved only by the September 18, 2023 episode which did 7,000 viewers less.

The show was doing great until the NFL season on ESPN and ABC started, averaging 1,727,389 from January to September and a 0.56 rating. That average dropped to 1,505,000 viewers and a 0.47 rating when it went against the NFL.

Raw’s run on cable television ended on December 30, with the show now moving to Netflix from January 6.
