The TV ratings and viewership data are in for the Oct. 24 episode of WWE SmackDown on the USA Network.
Per Programming Insider, SmackDown netted 1,147,000 million viewers and drew a 0.29 rating in the 18-49
year old demographic. That’s a slightly smaller total audience than the Friday before, and a small uptick in the demo. It helped SmackDown finish first in the cable ratings, and third overall on all of television.
Game 1 of the World Series led everything on the night, bringing approximately 12.5 million viewers to FOX while drawing a 2.53 rating. But the mystery of who attacked Jacob Fatu, and Drew McIntyre’s latest take-no-prisoners campaign for a World title kept SmackDown in the fight, even against Shohei Ohtani and Vladimir Guerrero, Jr.
