WWE RAW Viewership Up From Last Week's Record Low For Final ThunderDome Show

Monday's live Money In the Bank go-home edition of WWE RAW, the final show of the ThunderDome era with the final build for Sunday's pay-per-view, drew an average of 1.609 million viewers on the USA Network, according to Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics.

This is up 9.31% from last week's 1.472 million viewers. Last week's show drew the lowest RAW viewership in history.

RAW drew a 0.43 rating in the 18-49 key demographic. This is up 4.88% from last week's 0.41 key demo rating. That 0.43 key demo rating represents 560,000 viewers in the 18-49 range, which is up 4.48% from the 536,000 18-49 viewers that last week's 0.41 key demo rating represented. Last week's RAW was tied with two other shows for the lowest key demo rating in show history.

Monday's go-home RAW drew the best viewership since June 21, but still ranked as the fifth-lowest of all-time. The key demo rating was the third-lowest of the year, and the second lowest in history. Viewership was up 9.31% from the previous week, while the key demo rating was up 4.88% from last week.

Monday's RAW viewership was up 3.07% from the same week in 2020, while the 18-49 key demo rating was down 10.42% from the same week in 2020.

Monday's go-home RAW featured several matches and segments advertised ahead of time this week – John Morrison vs. Ricochet in a Falls Count Anywhere Match, WWE United States Champion Sheamus returning to defend against Humberto Carrillo, RAW Tag Team Champion AJ Styles vs. Ivar, RAW Tag Team Champion Omos making his singles debut vs. Erik, Asuka vs. Naomi vs. Nikki Cross vs. Alexa Bliss, the latest on the Jinder Mahal vs. Drew McIntyre feud, plus WWE Champion Bobby Lashley vs. Xavier Woods in a non-title match, which ended up being the opener.
