The overnight ratings for WWE SmackDown on Friday, August 2022 are in and they’re disappointing from a viewership standpoint for the company.
SpoilerTV is reporting that the show averaged 1.983 million viewers on August 5th, down from the 2.060 million viewers the show managed to average for the previous week.
The first hour of the show reportedly pulled in 1.986 million viewers, whilst the second hour reportedly did 1.980 million viewers overall.
