WWE Contacted By Nielson Over Ratings

WWE officials were informed on Thursday by Nielsen Media Research that there was a technical issue affecting the listed ratings of several programs this week, including Monday Night Raw.

This explains the dramatic drop in the rating for Raw this week, dropping from a 3.4 last week to a 2.5. Details on a new "revised" rating has not been released at this point. If anything new is released, we will pass it along. Either way, WWE has been concerned about the lower number for the last three weeks for Raw so changes are still expected to take place.
