Assuming it has a similar drop next year, within 5 years RAW would have halved their audience and its all due to how badly WWE botched the transition from the Cena era to the Reigns era and handling of NXT call-ups.
For some reference, within the same time period NFL managed to stay relatively even to where it was five years ago despite the growing trend with cord cutters. Similar to WWE, NFL also had a period where they had the view of nobody could be bigger than "The Shield" or brand but then stopped that mentality once it started to really hurt the ratings.
