Many people immediately begin to want to know the ratings number after Raw, which is important. However these days we consume content alot differently than in 1999 or even 2009. Quick clips on the YouTube is what most people would look for if they missed the show.

It’s my belief that this is an accurate gauge of the casual fan. The fan that didn’t DVR the show or won’t set aside the three hours on another night. However want to still know what’s going on, as a PPV is approaching.

Here are the current YouTube views for Raw:

1.  Bobby Lashley Returns to Raw: 5.3 Million Views
2. Ronda Rousey puts Stephanie McMahons in arm bar: 2.7 Million Views
3. Braun Strowman and Nicklaus reliquish tag titles: 2.3 Million Views
4. Jeff Hardy runs into Bray Wyatt and Woken Matt: 2 Million Views
5. Paige retirement speech: 1.8 Million Views
6. Jeff Hardy helps Balor and Rollins: 1.7 Million Views
7. Ember Moon debut: 1.7 Million Views
8. Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens:  1.3 Million Views
9. Samoa Joe return: 1.2 Million Views
10. Rollins, Hardy and Balor vs. Miz and Miztourage: 1 million Views

The entire top 10 this week did one million plus views. That’s absolutely fantastic! Bobby Lashley posting a huge number will make WWE happy. Anytime someone does over 5 million that’s superstar numbers, let’s see how he holds up. This weeks winner for me though is Jeff Hardy. I maintain that he shouldn’t be Brother Nero and should continue being Jeff Hardy. He was featured three times and posted 1 million each time. WWE may have a low key main eventer as long as he doesn’t become broken.

The big loser this week is Sasha Banks, after having huge weeks with Bayley, her numbers plummeted. In a match with Mandy Rose she didn’t even hit 400k on a week where many people sought content.
