He's wrong.

We'd have to look at the numbers. The women's matches have improved greatly but Deezy is right when he says that if the ratings for their segments haven't improved; then it means nothing from a business perspective

I'd say the moment Sasha Banks won the Women's Championship was the highlight of the first New Era Raw.
Match didn't pop a rating tho.

Roman and Rusev did

TakeOver: Respect says hello.

Can't speak for Deezy especially cause I don't care either way but I'm pretty sure he's referring to TV ratings, not a Network special

I don't have the numbers on me, but it'll take years of changing the way the WWE sees women's matches before they can draw like the men do. Divas matches were viewed as a toilet break for decades.

The Roman fans talking about something not being over, funny. The women get louder pops than they do 7 out of 10 times, MAYBE even more. People give a damn about the matches now, they aren't used as piss breaks from the crowd. They are over, rather you like to admit it or not.

Sometimes all you want is good critical reception which they've got in spades. It makes them proud.

None of these make sense, just because a small sample group likes something, doesn't make it successful.

Critical praise means nothing if the audience doesn't care.

Owens debuting that shirt after winning the title is genius.

Do you not hear the fucking audience during the women's matches?

And?

Enzo gets the biggest reaction most nights, does it mean he moves the needle?

What was my original point? Nobody really cares. These bitches don't have to be killing themselves by taking stupid risks.
