How Was WWE Raw Viewership This Week? Bayley Talks Not Getting Called Up

This week’s episode of Raw was action packed and it kicked off with a big segment that featured a confrontation between Samoa Joe and Roman Reigns. The show also featured a Raw Tag Team Title match and an appearance from Goldberg, but unfortunately it wasn’t enough to bring in the viewership that last week’s post-Royal Rumble show drew.

Monday Night Raw drew 3.115 million people this week according to ShowBuzzDaily.com. Viewership was down compared to the 3.615 million viewers who tuned in to watch last week’s episode.

This week the first hour of Raw drew 3.339 million viewers, followed by the second hour which drew 3.165 million viewers. The third and final hour drew 2.842 million viewers.

Next week on Raw Bayley will get her chance to win her first title on the main roster, as it’s been announced that Charlotte will be putting her Women’s Championship on the line against Bayley in a singles match.

Bayley seems to be the star that WWE officials are pushing as the top face in the women’s division at the moment, but the former NXT Women’s Champion happened to be the last of the Four Horsewomen to get called up to the main roster.

Bayley was recently a guest on Lillian Garcia’s show Making Their Way To The Ring and she admitted that that she wanted to get called up with the rest of her friends. She did however note that although it sucked to be passed over, she was still happy for Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks and Charlotte.

“At first it sucked. To be honest, it sucked, because I wanted to go. I wanted that so bad. But when I saw them debut I couldn’t feel anything but happiness for them. I was just excited. I was like, OK we’re going in the right direction. It’s another step in the right direction. Honestly I thought I would be there shortly after with them… I’ll be there in maybe a couple more months and that would be fine, because I was the champion so it was OK. But then it took a whole ‘nother year, and I have to say that it was probably the best year I’ve had in wrestling thus far, because I had to rely on myself.”
