More viewership data for SNME, double main event for ROH Final Battle, Will Ospreay note

Dec 17, 2024 - by Steve Gerweck

– According to Tony Khan, during the ‘Final Battle’ media call, the two world title matches will be featured as a “double main event”.

– According to Variety, the two-hour broadcast brought in a massive 2.3 million viewers, combining 1.59 million from NBC’s live airing and an additional 700,000 who streamed it live on Peacock. The impressive ratings put WWE’s return to Saturday Night’s Main Event ahead of ABC’s NBA Cup semifinal matchup between the Houston Rockets and Oklahoma City Thunder, which averaged 1.89 million viewers. Not bad for a show that hadn’t aired on NBC since 2008.

Will Ospreay proposed a “gentlemen’s agreement” to avoid another draw: if there’s one minute left, they will stand in the ring and fight until one drops, Holloway-style.
