While many consider WWE's Tribute to the Troops special to be a much-deserved recognition of the Armed Forces, others don't think of it as "must-see TV." WWE often books it to be highly predictable, with babyfaces almost always coming out on top.However, this year's special has proven to be highly successful from a ratings standpoint. According to reports from Wrestlenomics, the holiday special drew almost 2.030 million total viewers with a 0.51 rating (663,000 viewers) in the 18-49 demographic. Interestingly, WWE taped Tribute to the Troops at the Toyota Arena in Ontario, CA on October 15th, airing it a month later on November 14th on FOX.WWE@WWEThe beautiful tradition continues for @WWE.This is the 19th annual WWE Tribute to the Troops! 🇺🇸#WWETroops@TributeToTroops3:05 AM · Nov 14, 2021856158The beautiful tradition continues for @WWE.This is the 19th annual WWE Tribute to the Troops! 🇺🇸#WWETroops@TributeToTroops https://t.co/vpN5LKnNnTJudging from the stats, it seems that the one-hour holiday special drew more views than this past week's Monday Night RAW, which averaged 1.585 million views with a 0.42 in the 18-49 demographic.
