The September 14 episode of WWE Raw attracted a robust 3.1 million weekly viewers, sparking curiosity about whether this indicated growing momentum or was mainly driven by the WWE World Heavyweight Title match featuring Penta versus Roman Reigns. It seems to be a combination of both factors; although overall viewership has declined, it remains relatively strong compared to summer numbers. According to Wrestlenomics, the September 28 episode of Raw garnered 2.5 million viewers over the week, alongside 4.4 million hours watched.
This viewership count stayed steady compared to the September 21 episode, which also had 2.5 million weekly viewers, keeping Raw’s ratings within the typical summer range of 2.3 to 2.7 million. However, hours viewed dropped by 400,000 from the 4.8 million recorded on September 21, and significantly declined from the 6 million hours seen on September 14—the highest figure in the past three months. In terms of Netflix’s global and domestic rankings, Raw placed 8th worldwide and 7th domestically; while this represents a slight dip from the previous week (down one spot globally and two spots domestically), the show maintained a solid position overall.
The September 28 episode continued to spotlight The Bloodline saga inside the 946 area code, now featuring former NXT star Jaida Parker, who dramatically made her debut by running over Jacob Fatu with a car. The escalating rivalry is set to culminate in an upcoming Raw match where Royce Keys, Bronco Nima, and Lucien Price will face off against The Usos and Solo Sikoa.
