WWE SmackDown 7/14/23 Ratings Drop from Last Week’s Trial of the Tribal Chief Segment

The latest edition of WWE Friday Night SmackDown saw the ratings be down. The show averaged 2.309 million viewers on FOX, which is down from 2.561 million viewers, according to PWTorch.

In the all-important 18-49 demographic, the show did a 0.62 rating, down from the 0.76 rating a week ago.

The ratings were expected to be down as last week featured the Trial of the Tribal Chief segment with Roman Reigns. It was the highest key demo viewership since December 2020, when they had a lead-in with an NFL game on Christmas. Excluding that, it was the highest since March 2020.

Women’s World Champion Asuka vs. Bianca Belair, Pretty Deadly (Elton Prince & Kit Wilson) vs. The Brawling Brutes (Ridge Holland & Sheamus), Bayley vs. Zelina Vega, AJ Styles vs. Santos Escobar vs. Butch vs. Grayson Waller was among the matches featured on the show.

The show on the same week last year did 2.077 million viewers with an 18-49 demo rating of 0.47.
