WWE Smackdown TV rating: Final number for Friday's television show

Friday's WWE Smackdown television show drew a 2.03 rating, down from a 2.08 rating the week before. As previously noted, Smackdown averaged 2.973 million viewers compared to the 3.03 million average from the previous week.

Powell's POV: WWE has to be pleased with their ratings for Raw and Smackdown last week. The Smackdown number was down slightly, but that's minus Rock and C.M. Punk, who appeared on the Royal Rumble go-home edition of Smackdown.
