0:00.0	Hey, what's up, everyone? Don Tony here. Welcome to your Pro Wrestling Daily News Update for Wednesday, August 21st, 2024.
0:07.9	Got some wrestling news to get into, and we have some ratings. Now, I will tell you, the raw rating came in very, very late Tuesday night.
0:14.9	And I'm assuming it's because of the ratings for the Democratic National Convention, which although I think they did
0:22.1	like 11 million viewers, which is a good number, it's not like Super Bowl numbers. So I don't
0:28.2	know why everything was delayed. There was no holiday that I'm aware of. But we have ratings
0:33.7	for the weekends shows and Raw. Tomorrow we should have the quarter hour breakdowns, and we'll take a look at that
0:41.1	and see what peaked and, you know, what nose dived on all the shows.
0:45.2	But Raw this past Monday night, I think we all expected it, not because of the convention,
0:51.0	but because this week's Raw really felt flat in a lot of ways.
0:55.9	None of the matches advertised
0:57.5	were really bond burners, must
1:00.0	see TV, and building
1:02.0	up three hours to lead to Randy Orrin
1:03.8	versus Louvre Kaiser as much as we are
1:05.8	fans of both guys.
1:07.9	I don't know how many people wanted
1:09.9	to wait until 10.30 at night to see those two
1:13.2	battle it out. But Raw this past Monday night, still an excellent number. 1,641,000 viewers,
1:22.9	down from the week prior is 1,889,000 viewers.
1:37.2	Smackdown from this past Friday, August 16th, 2,252,000 viewers, slightly down from the week prior as 2,269.
1:40.0	We should also point out that there were multiple markets that did not air SmackDown in its normal time slot because of preseason football for the NFL.
1:50.1	So that definitely had an impact on Smackdown's number, which still, again, only down about 17,000 viewers, even with the preemption.
