Raw last night did 3.46 million viewers, the second lowest non-holiday number for the show since 1997, meaning it even fell below games against the NFL.

The only non-holiday Raw below, on December 3, 2012, went against a monster ratings for a New York Giants vs. Washington Redskins game.

If there is a positive, the numbers for the second straight week grew during the show and peaked in the final hour.

What makes this number even worse is that competition was non-existent, aside from the usual Love & Hip Hop Atlanta 4, and there was nothing of note when it came to sports competition, with a baseball game head-to-head on ESPN doing 669,000 viewers.

Raw was still the highest rated show on cable.

The three hours were:

8 p.m. 3.36 million viewers

9 p.m. 3.48 million viewers

10 pm.. 3.54 million viewers

If they are getting record-low ratings and are still the highest-rated show on cable, doesn't that say more about cable in general than it does about WWE in particular?
