WWE's Top Ratings Draws Revealed

WWE has been on a hot streak over the past year since Triple H was appointed Chief Content Officer in the summer of 2022, with the company regularly selling out arenas across the United States and drawing more viewers than ever for their pay-per-views due to the deal with Peacock. The company has also remained largely steady when it comes to ratings for Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown, while NXT's ratings have improved in 2023 when compared to the same period in 2022. 

As is typical with any pro wrestling promotion, some stars draw in more fans than others. For WWE, the top ratings draws within the company when it comes to minute-by-minute viewership are Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, and John Cena, Dave Meltzer reported in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. This will shock few as Roman Reigns has been WWE's top star for the past several years and he is the reigning Undisputed WWE Universal Champion. Cody Rhodes, meanwhile, is the top babyface in the company and John Cena always pops a rating whenever he comes back to WWE TV. 

Paul Heyman also moves ratings regardless of if he is alongside Roman Reigns or not. By association, this means Solo Sikoa also helps move ratings as he is almost always in segments with Paul Heyman and The Bloodline.
