Unrivaled Ratings CRASH

Angel Reese TURNED OFF! Unrivaled Ratings CRASH on Friday! NOBODY is WATCHING! Look at these Disastrous Stats!

The latest ratings for Unrivaled’s third week are in, and the numbers are nothing short of disastrous. Angel Reese, who once boldly claimed that she was the reason fans were tuning in, is now witnessing a shocking decline in viewership. Compared to the debut week, the audience for Reese’s team, the Rose BC Basketball Club, has plummeted by more than 50%, raising serious doubts about the league’s sustainability.

Fans Tune Out as Reese Struggles

Reese’s outspoken nature and past claims of being a major draw for women’s basketball are now being called into question. Despite her high-profile presence, her latest game barely attracted viewers, with a meager 140,000 tuning in—an alarming drop from the 311,000 that watched her debut two weeks earlier. This steep decline suggests that fans are actively choosing to change the channel when her games come on.

Adding to the drama, Reese’s latest outing ended in chaos as she was ejected after receiving a double technical foul. Following her removal from the game, she took to social media to vent her frustrations, further fueling controversy around her presence in the league.
Unrivaled’s Ratings in FreefallThe overall performance of Unrivaled has been underwhelming, despite initial buzz surrounding its launch. The latest figures reveal that Friday night’s game between the Unrivaled Phenom and Rose BC drew only 140,000 viewers on TNT—a staggering drop that raises concerns about the league’s viability. Even before Reese’s game aired, Unrivaled’s earlier matchup that evening only managed 190,000 viewers.

Critics argue that the league is already showing signs of collapse, much like other short-lived women’s sports leagues in the past. Comparisons have even been drawn to failed ventures like the XFL and USFL, where dwindling attendance and poor ratings led to their ultimate demise.

Sue Bird Defends Unrivaled Amid Criticism

WNBA legend and Unrivaled investor Sue Bird attempted to downplay the ratings crisis, urging fans to focus on the league’s “success” in other areas, including social media engagement. In a recent discussion with Megan Rapinoe, Bird highlighted the league’s performance on platforms like TikTok rather than addressing the glaring issue of declining television viewership.

However, experts are quick to point out that social media buzz does not translate to sustainable revenue streams. Unlike advertising-driven television ratings, online engagement alone is unlikely to keep the league afloat.

Is Unrivaled Already Doomed?

From the very start, skeptics questioned whether launching another women’s basketball league—especially a 3v3 format—was a viable idea. The WNBA itself has struggled to turn a profit, and now Unrivaled appears to be facing even steeper challenges.

Many believe that had Caitlin Clark joined the league, the numbers might have been more promising. Clark’s absence has left Unrivaled without a true ratings magnet, and despite Reese’s self-proclaimed star power, viewers seem to be actively avoiding her games rather than tuning in.

Fans Boycotting Angel Reese?

One of the most shocking revelations from the ratings data is that viewership dropped significantly between Unrivaled’s first game of the night and Angel Reese’s matchup. Roughly 50,000 fans switched off the broadcast before her game even began, fueling speculation that Reese’s presence is actually driving viewers away rather than attracting them.

Reese, who once bragged about being the face of the sport, is now facing a harsh reality—she isn’t the draw she believed herself to be. With Unrivaled’s future looking uncertain and ratings in freefall, it’s only a matter of time before major changes are needed to keep the league from complete collapse.
