What are the news?

Monday Night Raw left a bad taste in the mouths of many fans and the audience saw how dissatisfied the fans were.

The Nov. 26 issue of Raw recorded a significant drop in viewership and was almost identical to the most-watched episodes of all time in 2018.

In case you did not know it

Raw started with Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley during their assault on Braun Strowman last week, which eventually led Elias to be attacked by the group.

Seth Rollins beat Dolph Ziggler to retain the Intercontinental title, Nia Jax and Ronda Rousey exchanged words and Corbin and his group attacked Finn Balor in the main event.

The heart of the problem

Raw attracted an average of 2.37 million viewers, 125,000 fewer than last week's average of 2.49 million.

Hour one: 2,612 million

Second hour: 2,382 million

Third hour: 2.111 million

The show was Monday Night Cable's fifth most-watched show and was behind the content of Love and Hip Hop and the NFL.

Heels dominated the entire program with only Seth Rollins and Ember Moon winning games definitely won, while others won by disqualification.

Every hour of Raw attracted far fewer viewers than the previous week, but the third hour generated the least viewers of the month of November, with 2.131 million viewers, 30,000 more views than the most episode poorly rated all the time on October 1st.

And after?

Nothing has been announced for Raw next week, but the fallout from this week's program could affect what the WWE announces for the first December Raw.

Many fans have argued that it was one of the worst Raw of all time, but the situation could worsen when the WWE gets ready for 2019.
