The final rating for live Smackdown is 2.54, which is far, far ahead of Smackdown on SyFy, but the more surprising news is that the 2-hour Tribute to the Troops Wednesday did a 2.0, which is barely more than the difference between WWE is usually with Smackdown and a high interest Impact. What is being taken from this is that WWE needs to get Smackdown off Fridays for ratings to improve heavily.
