This week’s WWE Raw rating is in, and wrestling’s flagship show delivered a 2.69, which is the single lowest number of 2014. As we reported earlier, this week’s viewership was actually up by a bit more than 1%, but WWE had to be expecting a much better final number with the return of Dean Ambrose, an advertised main event between John Cena and Randy Orton, and Monday’s show being the night after a PPV.

In terms of viewers, it ranged between 3.79 million (9pm) to 4 million (8pm). For comparisons, its between 200k to 1/2 million lower than last year's post-Night of Champs show.

Heyman may not have appeared because it appears WWE hasn't figured out Lesnar's plans for Hell In a Cell yet. As of this morning, another John Cena vs. Lesnar match for Hell In a Cell was not planned.
There was no word on any planned Hell In a Cell matches coming out of RAW either.

While WWE stock and Wall Street as a whole had a rough day on Monday, WWE stock is back over $14 per share this morning. Yesterday's drop may have had to do with financial analysts labeling WWE stock as a "sell" due to concerns over WWE Network subscriptions.

Speculation right now is the Network is tanking badly in the US to the point its likely to be higher than around the 130,000 they lost last time and might not even balance out with the new subs (WWE only gained around 76k overall).
