For comparison for fiscal year 2000 (May 1999-April 2000), according to their annual report, two hour program of WWF Monday Night Raw on USA average 6.2 rating, 6.7 million viewers.
Meanwhile, in 2013, three hour program of WWE Monday Night Raw on USA averaged 4.16 million viewers and a 3.00 rating from Jan 2013 to Dec 2013.  (If you chose to "cherry-pick" the best two hours in 2013 for every single episode, it's still only 4.24 million viewers; this isn't a case where you can just argue that one certain hour is killing them.)
