WWE no longer has to compete with Monday Night Football and ratings are starting to recover as a result. This week's episode of RAW surged as a result of that with an impressive 2,722,000 million viewers. That's quite an increase from last week's 2,326,000 million viewers, that's for sure. It's also worth noting that much of the show revolved around former Universal Champion Finn Balor.
Things kicked off with Vince McMahon doubting his abilities before he defeated Jinder Mahal in a singles match and then pinned John Cena in a Fatal-4-Way bout which also included Baron Corbin and Drew McIntyre. With that, he earned a shot at Universal Champion Brock Lesnar at the Royal Rumble and fans are now excited about the possibility of him taking the title from the often missing Beast.
Hour one drew 2,775,000 million viewers, hour two did 2,781,000 viewers, and the final hour held up well with 2,610,000 viewers. What did you guys think of Monday's RAW? Share your thoughts below.
