Shout out to brother Fray for the digits.


That's a 2.16 rating. This promotion is leaking but no one is sealing the leak.

Hope this is the wake-up call that will make WWE get their shit together.

Ight WWE time to stop playing shit safe and pull out all the fucking stops
2 Million views isn't going to get WWE off of it's ass. Mind you RAW was sinking into the shorter side of 1 million at one-point in the late 90s. And they still took almost an entire year before taking any real abrasive actions.

And actually they've even been in worse positions. In May of 2013 they were dropping even lower than 2.16 (2.9 to be exact). A continued drop in ratings will likely lead to a blame game, ending on someone that has nothing to do with it at all. Much like how Daniel Bryan was blamed for low PPV numbers in 2013.

It's their way of thinking when it comes to pulling out the big guns. Because legends that drew 15+ years ago just have to draw today. Am I right??

I'm starting to think i'm just coming to this forum for Pokemon and music now, honestly I think it's time to move on from wrestling since it looks like it all sucks now, I get the feeling wrestling is dying now

Beg to differ. WWE and mainstream wrestling is dying. But there's other promotions and styles that are thriving like never before. To categorize WWE's retardation as the death of wrestling, is a vagues statement.

shut up and strap in because the wild ride isn't over until its over

watch this shit to make fun of it, because its bad

express that anger, that rage, through the live chat

generate banter

bad + positive attitude = still bad but kinda not as bad

I don't think it matters to them at this point how the Raw ratings are doing. What they care about is filling seats in the arenas, network subscriptions, and John Cenas merchandise sales.
