Their viewership was over 3 million but they only gained ~200,000 viewers if I recall. Not sure what the rating share is.

Ratings continually mean less and less as many viewers go to streaming media--especially for cable services. Simply looking at ratings is dumb and you should only now consider it a partial metric of success/failure. No doubt people shut off the 2nd and 3rd hour of RAW because 11 year olds have a bed time and there's Hulu and the network and :words: . Remember that.

Speaking of which, the network's biggest downfall is not having RAW or Smackdown live, and I wonder how much poo poo creek WWE would be up if they attempted to do this. USA and Hulu would probably give them a major :getout:

I'm p. sure they paintbrush some yogurt on your face for these ads, so that's kinda funny, Stone Cold standing around while someone from Milk, Inc.'s makeup department just slaps him with some yogurt.

Actually this is true, it's like a wax or sugar that they can paint on. I remember seeing a making of back in the 90's of these ads.

Similar to how just about any time you see milk being poured over cereal it's actually just glue or something with the same consistency. Milk is too watery to be that beautiful.

yes but wwe's ratings are going down faster than other media after factoring in all of this

I'm sure at some point TNA also tried to argue that ratings don't matter

I mean they just signed a contract to be on some sort of tv guide channel for their main programming so obviously that sort of mentality works out

this year. march/april is usually an outlier because it's the leadup to wrestlemania plus the raw after wrestlemania usually gets the highest ratings of the year then it goes down after that

Screaming is the only useful thing that we can do.

Late to the WWE are racist because New Day aren't serious contenders and all the black wrestlers are rubbish chat... remember when Mark Henry was the best thing about WWE? I wish there was a compilation of his Hall of Pain run and it ends with his "retirement" announcement but he actually retires with his last words being "Cena nuff".

Big E should be WWE champion/Hall of Pain jury.
