Do TV ratings tell the whole story?

WWE's TV ratings in the USA has seen a sharp decline in recent times. Ratings for WWE's weekly shows have consistently gone down over the last two decades.

The ratings dip has become more critical with each passing year. Recently, Raw's ratings plummeted alarmingly as the July 13th episode of Raw averaged 1.561 million viewers.

However, there's another side to this story. While WWE's TV ratings have gone down, content consumption over other mediums has hit record highs. A report by wwe.com stated:

“WWE set WrestleMania Week viewership records with more than 967 million video views across the company’s digital and social platforms including WWE Network, WWE.com, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Snapchat, an increase of 20 percent year-over-year.”

In addition to video views, fans consumed 46 million hours of content during the week, and they made 13.8 million social media interactions.
