WWE Smackdown viewership: Impressive viewership for Mark Henry's return to the Friday night show

Friday's WWE Smackdown averaged 3.19 million viewers, up from the 2.973 million viewers from the previous week, according to Zap2It.com. [Thanks to Dot Net reader Darius Malcisky]

Powell's POV: A strong bounce back from last week's show dropping below the 3 million viewers mark. Friday's show was headlined by Mark Henry vs. Randy Orton. There were no special appearances by The Rock or C.M. Punk this week. In fact, Mark Henry's return was the only notable addition. We hope to have the full rating later today.
