Smackdown Viewership Falls Once Again Ahead Of WWE Stomping Grounds

Last night’s Smackdown was the final show before this weekend’s WWE Stomping Grounds pay-per-view event.

The show featured Seth Rollins and Kofi Kingston teaming up to take Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens in a two out of three falls match, and a fairly decent Moment of Bliss segment with Alexa Bliss and Bayley ahead of their Smackdown Women’s Championship match on Sunday.

However, just like last week, the blue brand’s show fell below 2 million viewers. According to Showbuzz Daily, Smackdown brought in just 1.859 million viewers.

This is 3.7% down from the post-WWE Super ShowDown show last week which brought in 1.930 million viewers. This week’s figure is the third-lowest SmackDown has obtained in a non-holiday episode.

By comparison, Monday’s Raw averaged 2.235 million viewers, which was an improvement on the 2.125 million viewers they achieved the week prior.
