The show dropped to a new monthly low on June 28, as it drew 1.57 million viewers. This number was the fourth-latest figure of all time for the program, but the drop this past week leapt all the way to a record low. In the main event of the show, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods defeated WWE Champion Bobby Lashley and Xavier Woods.
Update: Thurston noted that 1.021 million viewers watched the show on September 13th, 1993 and explained that if this episode had less than 1.45 viewers per home, its viewership would be lower than this Monday’s episode.
It's been pointed out to me the Oct 1993 issue of Matwatch reported the Sept 13, 1993 episode of Raw was watched by 1.021 million households. If that episode had fewer than 1.45 viewers per home, it could have had fewer total viewers than Mon's episode. (Repost to correct date) pic.twitter.com/0RvHEFUzWf
