The 0.5 rating that WEC scored on 9/5 is the highest of the three shows they have done yet. The debut episode back on June 4 drew a 0.39 rating. The 0.5 rating on 9/5 is one of the best ratings of the year for Versus.
Meanwhile, the Wrestling Observer has some more details of the impressive ratings of UFC 75 two weeks ago. The show drew more Male 18-49 viewers than any other show in the history of SpikeTV. In the Male 18-34 demo, it was the second largest in history, trailing only the Shamrock - Ortiz show last year.
With more homes having Spike and with Nielsen now counting Tivo viewership in ratings, the Dan Henderson - Quinton Jackson match will top 5.7 million viewers in it's peak quarter and surpass Shamrock - Ortiz as the most watched MMA match in U.S. history.
