It may be a one week reprieve but Vince McMahon's appearance on Raw was a good move for WWE as the show averaged 4,108,000 viewers, up more than 600,000 from last week.
They did a better job of holding the audience as well as they only lost 2,000 viewers from hour two to hour three. Hour one was the most watched of the three however.
