TV RATINGS

698,000 viewers (P2+)
P18-49 rating: 0.18

Last year’s “Best of” Raw episode aired on Dec 26, 2022, the day after Christmas, and averaged 1,074,000 viewers and a 0.27 P18-49 rating, which at the time set the record low for Raw. That record is broken by Monday’s episode by a wide margin. This week’s “Best of” show had the additional disadvantage of airing on Christmas night, as opposed to the day after.

Like last year’s “Best of” Raw show, because it’s such an anomaly, this episode’s viewership will be excluded from annual comparisons and will be treated like a preemption.
