WWE Raw rating: Did the Triple H related walkout lead to better numbers?

Monday's WWE Raw television show earned a 3.2 rating (minus the overrun), which is up from the 3.04 rating the show scored last week. Raw averaged 4.996 million viewers, compared to the 4.27 million from last week.

Powell's POV: The Monday Night Football ratings for the Lions and Bears game did the second highest numbers of the season for ESPN, yet WWE still drew a better than average rating. The walkout stunt was successful in that the first two quarter-hours drew a 3.6 rating and the first hour averaged a 3.47, and the second hour dropped to a 3.0 rating.
