Bully Ray compared the scenario to how it used to be back in his day. He said that the second-tier stars would step up in the absence of top Superstars and that was the reason why WWE never dipped. (H/T 411Mania)
WWE’s dip during the COVID-19 pandemic
WWE has seen a steady decline in their viewership, both on RAW and SmackDown, during the empty-arena shows. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, WWE has been forced to shoot all their shows inside the Performance Center without an audience since March.
This week’s RAW recorded the lowest viewership since the Red brand moved to three hours back in 2012. WWE are pulling out all the stops to get the ratings up as next week’s RAW will see both Edge and Randy Orton return for the first time after their brutal Last Man Standing Match at WrestleMania 36. Whether or not this helps the ratings go up remains to be seen.
