The December 26th, 2011 edition of WWE Monday Night RAW on the USA Network did an overall 2.93 rating, rounded to a 2.9 overall.

The show which featured CM Punk running the gauntlet, in which Dolph Ziggler pinned the WWE Champion to earn an opportunity at the title on next week’s edition of RAW, as well as “The Big Red Monster” Kane explaining his actions for attacking John Cena as of late had an overall viewing audience of 4,462,000 viewers and did hours of 2.88 and 2.98, breaking the trend in recent months of WWE losing viewers in the second hour, which is no doubt going to please officials heading in to 2012.
