How people from USA Network reportedly feel about the changes to WWE RAW

The August 29th 2022 edition of WWE RAW drew 2.11 million viewers with a 0.59 rating in 18-49 and a 0.42 rating in 18-34. RAW’s average viewership in August was just over two million viewers which is the highest since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.

According to Fightful Select, there appears to be “a lot of happiness” from USA Network and NBC Universal officials that were spoken to in regards to the creative changes made in WWE so far. Fightful noted the following…

“A longtime employee of USA Network said that the WWE-USA relationship has long been an easygoing, business as usual one. However, they said that many in the company were happy to see creative changes implemented in August after Triple H took over that end of things. That same source indicated that they’d be surprised if USA didn’t make a play to renew WWE programming next year when negotiations are likely to start, and believes WWE has put themselves in an even better position in the last month.”
