Payout Perspective:
Despite having a strong lead-in from FIFA Women’s World Cup semifinal between Japan and England which drew 2.3 million in the 6:41-8:56pmET time slot and Fox Sports Live 8:56pm-10:00pm ET time slot which drew 876,000 viewers per Sports TV Ratings, there was considerable drop off when TUF came on at 10:00pm. The TUF average is 391,000 for this season.

Last episode was higher than the average. Not bad, could be worse.
Will be interesting to see what the longest running combat reality show will do next season. Likely a return to traditional format with a small variation.
