WWE Raw 5-21 Ratings, Hits New Yearly Low

May 22, 2012

Last night's Monday Night Raw, post Over The Limit Pay Per View, scored a 3.04 television rating. This number, while slightly low, is an improvement from last week's terrible 2.94 rating. Last week, CBS had their season Finale's of their popular comedy shows Two and a Half Men and How I Met Your Mother.

This week, Raw was once again up against stiff competition, which included 8 million viewers tuning into Lakers/Thunder Game 5 of the NBA Western Conference Semifinals. This was almost double the number of viewers who tuned into Raw.

It should be noted that this was the lowest rating of Monday Night Raw of 2012 in the demographics in male 18-34 and 18-49. The second hour raked in 4.14 million viewers, as hour one produced 4.17 millions viewers.
