People are off from work and Raw's ratings collapse? It almost looks like people get paid to inflate Raw's ratings and when given the choice, would rather do anything else with their time. Makes you think......

It was a clip show, on Christmas, in a world where the content they were showing is more easily accessible than ever before so there is no need to have scheduled time to see it. The number was fine.

A Best Of show should get the highest ratings because it only contains the best stuff. Who would waste their time watching a Raw whose quality isn't guaranteed?

isnt dynamite usually around 850k

700 isnt dead on but it's still in range - for a clip show that seems pretty good

Viewership doesn't matter. It was 0.18 and Dynamite usually averages around 0.28

The last Raw booked by Vince (April 3) did 2.26 million viewers and 0.76 in the demo. 8 months later and their audience is down 75%. Sad!

Goons are almost as brainwormed as the fed lovers on Twitter.

I’m only sympathetic because goons hate WWE, which is always right. Even if their reasons are bending reality.

It's a long ways back, and an irrelevant point to what you were talking about. So I am sorry,

But I feel that you are minimizing "institutionalized and serial sexual harassment, and multiple rapes" by calling them "extra marital affairs".

And I think that should be mentioned.

One, it was never my intention to minimize any poo poo he's done in the past.

Two, I was specifically referring to the payout he had to do most recently because he specifically had an extra marital affair. Not any of his past poo poo because I would have mentioned it.

Besides the new deal working with All Japan, WWE has also expressed interest in working with Stardom. Nothing is finalized that we know of regarding that but WWE is confirmed interested

Giulia right now is seen as likely to be coming here in 2024. Her contract expires with Stardom in March. She may not be coming in right away, but as of right now she’s leaning toward coming here in 2024.

Yes hello it is I Kurt's Secret Son


lol not phrasing things with meaning changes like that was literally my first week of headline training. It even perfectly matches the exact famous example story on why you don't do that!


quote:

WELLINGTON DEFEATED...

There were no telegrams or telephones in those days, nobody could send an SMS or put it up on Facebook or Youtube, of course, but everyone knew that Wellington was facing Napoleon in that great battle on the 18th of June 1815, and that the future of England was in great uncertainty.

A sailing ship semaphored (signalled with coded flags) the news to the signalman on top of Winchester Cathedral. He signalled to another man somewhere on a hill, and this way the news of the battle was passed on by semaphore from one place to another all the way to London and across the whole land.

When the ship came in, the signalman on board semaphored the first word: “W e l l i n g t o n”. The next word was “d e f e a t e d”, and then the fog came down and the ship could not be seen. “Wellington defeated” went across England, and there was great gloom all over the countryside.

After two or three hours, the fog lifted, and the signal came again: “Wellington defeated the enemy.” Then all England rejoiced.
