Last week's Raw Ratings were 3.3 and 3.1

[Kane Knight]

Not as stellar a comeback as we were told, but still an improvement. :y:

That's about 5.5 and 5 million viewers, respectively.

I thought I read somewhere that for the past two weeks the ratings were 3.8

WWE RAW Rating Is In; NFL vs. WWE

For the second week in a row, RAW scored a 3.8 cable rating. RAW did hours of 3.7 and 3.9. On a side note, WWE RAW beat the NFL preseason game on ESPN.

Cue 6 months of McMahon and his bastard, but good figures.

Grabbed mine from Nielsen's site.

Is Nielson's like THE PLACE to go to to find accurate rating numbers?

Anyways, either one of the ratings is better than that 2.5 rating they earned a few weeks ago.

Everyone else declares these other numbers and you always show significantly lower numbers.

I'm not saying that you're lying, but 2+ legit sites always report the higher numbers.

Edit: Bah, just found another non-wrestling site showing the lower numbers. Looks like someone's either taking them from an unreliable source or are embellishing them.

Considering the numbers reported from the wrestling dirt sheets are supposed to BE Nielson ratings, I'd say yes.

I don't mean that to be sarcastic, but NMR is the ratings company they use. Everyone uses them.

I know you said you found a site, but for people who do doubt me (After the Tardfest that was #1WWF Fan posting LOP numbers...), here's a screencap.

The numbers actually given by Nielsen are ALWAYS lower than the ones given in wrestling ratings news. I have NEVER seen the numbers tied or exceed the claimed ratings. On the two instances where I've seen WWE give concrete numbers, they've agreed with Nielsen Media and not with the internet reports.

The wrestling sites all seem to crib them from the same place, and I don't know why the disconnect, but if even WWE's agreeing with the Nielsen ratings, especially since they're lower...
