Tuesday’s WWE Smackdown Live rating drew a 1.64 rating, down from the 1.66 rating from the previous two weeks. It’s the lowest rating since Oct. 31 last year and the lowest non-holiday rating since Oct. 17, 2017.

Viewership was 2.298 million.

The rolling ten-week average headed into this week is 1.81.

The average rating so far in May is 1.66, down from 1.90 in April and 1.86 in March. Last May, Smackdown averaged a 1.60 rating the last two Mays, so it’s down from recent ratings, but above previous May averages.
