WWE SmackDown turned in a slight viewership increase this week as the blue brand continued its build toward Survivor Series season.
Programming Insider reports that the November 14th edition of SmackDown drew 1.158 million viewers on USA Network. That’s up from the 1.141 million the show brought in on November 7, giving WWE a modest week-over-week rise as storylines continue to heat up.
The key demo also ticked upward. Friday’s broadcast scored a 0.27 rating in the 18–49 demographic, edging out last week’s 0.26. While not a dramatic jump, the increase keeps SmackDown stable among cable’s top performers.
SmackDown ultimately finished second on all of cable for the night. Only ESPN’s Clemson vs. Louisville college football matchup — which pulled 2.564 million viewers and a 0.53 demo rating — managed to outdraw WWE’s Friday flagship.
