How Did Last Night's WWE SmackDown Premiere On The USA Network Do?

According to ShowBuzzDaily.com, last night’s edition of WWE Smackdown, which was the show’s debut on USA Network, averaged 2.757 million viewers.

This week’s number is way up from the 1.658 million viewers Smackdown aired on New Years Eve. This week’s number is also up from the Super Smackdown episode, which averaged 2.264 million viewers. The final episode of WWE Smackdown on Syfy in its regular time slot averaged 2.332 million viewers, so this week’s number is an increase from that as well.

This week’s Smackdown ranked #2 for the night in viewership, behind The O’Reilly Factor on FOX News.
