The following was issued by WWE: WWE® Fuels USA Network's Continuing Success - July 7, 2008- In a remarkably competitive 2Q 2008 marked by NBA playoffs and high-profile cable originals, USA was the No. 1 cable network delivering more P25-54 (1.27 million), P18-49 (1.25 million), total viewers (2.73 million) and households (2.04 million) than any other network in basic cable prime. USA's success was fueled, in part, by another tremendous ratings performance by WWE's Monday Night RAW, as it has been since the program returned to USA in 2005. In the second quarter, RAW regularly placed in the top 10, representing more of these top spots than any other show and reaffirming its status as the No. 1 weekly series on cable.
