Greg DeMarco’s YouTube Performance Report: WWE Raw (4/29/19)

A look at the YouTube performance for the April 29th edition of WWE RAW!

As we all know, social media and other outlets have become a huge means of drawing in interaction and viewers for WWE. Most people will point to television ratings like they did during the Monday Night Wars in the late 1990’s, however that can be skewed with so many various means of watching today that do not include cable television. As such, YouTube has joined social media as a metric as important to WWE as television ratings (if not more).

As you’ve become accustomed to, here is this week’s RAW YouTube Report, compiled Tuesday night (approximately 24 hours after Raw went off the air), for the 4/29/19 edition of WWE Raw:

• Seth Rollins and AJ Styles Contract Signing – 1.574 million views
• Bray Wyatt’s Firefly Fun House Bob Ross Painting – 902k views
• Becky Lynch and Lacey Evans Brawl – 897k views

Greg DeMarco’s WWE Raw YouTube Ratings Analysis

Bray Wyatt’s Firefly Fun House still holds strong, bringing in just under a million views. However, it came in second behind Seth Rollins and AJ Styles, who topped 1.5 million views for the second week in a row. Becky Lynch and Lacey Evans came in third with 897k views, the first appearance for women on this week’s list.

I’ve often said that the Top 5 is the most important number for Raw, and the Top 5 in terms of YouTube views is rounded out by the Men’s Money In The Bank Ladder Match. Braun Strowman & Ricochet win over Baron Corbin & Drew McIntyre came in 4th at 731k views, followed by Alexa Bliss announcing all four competitors with 633k views.

The internet favorites weren’t able to deliver on the internet this week, as The Usos, The Revival, Sami Zayn, Curt Hawkins, and Zack Ryder all sat at the bottom of the rankings this week. Another bad week for the tag team division…

My favorite video…the brilliance of Alexa Bliss!
