SMACKDOWN LIVE Ratings Remain Strong Following Last Week's Superstar Shakup

This week's RAW was something of an underwhelming effort but with a stacked roster following the Superstar Shakeup, you probably won't be surprised to learn that ratings for SmackDown Live remain strong.

It's fair to say that SmackDown Live came out on the better side of the Superstar Shakeup. The show now boasts a roster made up of names like Daniel Bryan, Asuka, Big Cass, Shinsuke Nakamura, AJ Styles, Jeff Hardy, and various NXT callups, so it's no wonder a lot of fans tuned in this Tuesday. 

While RAW suffered a pretty significant drop in ratings, SmackDown Live did a solid 2,549,000 viewers. That's obviously down from last week's 2,796,000 viewers but a sign that the show has managed to retain a lot of wrestling fans, something which couldn't really be said for Monday's boring RAW.

Which brand is your favourite? Did you think SmackDown Live topped RAW this week? As always, be sure to let us know your thoughts on that in the comments section down below.
