The segment led to a +9% increase in total viewership and a +11% in the 18-49 demographic.
This increase shows that Roman’s “Needle Mover” shirt is not just a tagline.
As previously mentioned, the WrestleMania Raw episode scored 1.979 million viewers and 0.55 demo rating, which is the highest since the August 23 episode.
