Predictably, it was the first post-Wrestlemania installment of “WWE Monday Night Raw” that took the top spots in the Monday cable ratings this week. Airing on USA, the three-hour broadcast scored a peak 1.5 rating in adults 18-49, three-tenths higher than its previous 1.2.
VH1’s “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” managed to keep its place near the top of the ratings as well, despite dropping from a 1.6 to a 1.4 this week. Inching closer and closer to its final episode also, A&E’s “Bates Motel” took a minor hit, falling one-tenth from a 0.5 to a 0.4.
Meanwhile, “Vanderpump Rules” also dipped one-tenth from a 0.7 to a 0.6 on Bravo this week, and MTV’s “Teen Mom II” dropped from a 0.5 and a 0.4 last week to a 0.3 this time around.
