Oh you spelt a whole bunch of words intentionally wrong, that really argued your point.

Except you were creaming all over the matches and segments.

Just another opinion you changed at the drop of a hat like most things with you.

While there is somethings they have done wrong with his reign like too often not letting the WWE title stuff end the PPV's he has at least had a real reign so can't say they aren't pushing him. Also the idea of rehashing attitude era stuff to fix problems is just silly. Being stuck in the past doesn't help anything for the future.

That is a fantastic opening rating, pity everything dropped from there. Can't see why the new character would be blamed for the drop in ratings, surely the WWE champion and number one contender should bear the brunt of drawing viewers compared to a character that debuted a month or two ago and that isn't even booked in a match for the next PPV.

Wait a minute, Hatred weren't you going all crazy about the matches and segments every single week? Punk and Jericho are my top two favorites all time but I'm not going to lie and I'll say straight up that the feud didn't live up to expectations. The matches were really good but the weekly segments for it was pretty weak. I'm pretty let down but oh well, their is always that Austin-Punk potential. Hatred just needs to shut up.

most of the segments yes, but before the feud I was expecting more. everyone was wanting this best in the world feud including myself but then it got lame after a while. I'm still a Punk and Jericho fan tho.

pwinsider said:
The 5/12 edition of Smackdown did a 1.72 rating with 2,528,000 viewers.

Dropped back down again after getting close to 2 last week. The Smackdown booking has seemed quite a bit weaker in the past few months, the midcard seems really weak and I think that all the injuries to big names are definitely hurting the show.

Raw Rating in with Hourly Breakdowns
According to The Observer, the final rating for last night's episode of WWE Raw Supershow was a 2.9, with hours of 4.09 million viewers, and 4.32 million viewers. This is the lowest rating Raw has recieved since February.

Very poor rating but no surprise, it was a crap RAW.

One of the few times where I'll say the show actually got the rating it deserved was just a bad Raw.

It went head to head with Lakers-Thunder which ran from right after the Punk tag match - overrun. That is the first time a Lakers game let alone playoff game has run alongside he whole broadcast of Raw in years

Weak rating but from all reports a well deserved rating. Hopefully WWE see this and realise that fans want to see a bit less of the authority figures in Johnny Ace and HHH and want some more focus on the main wrestlers and the main titles.

I don't think people want to watch Big Show crying for ten minutes then John Cena make the usual stupid jokes on Big Johnny for 15. That's 25 minutes of awful also who could forget that five star classic between Kane and Show (sarcasm).

HHH and Heyman brought it as did Ace/Show/Cena/Kane

Everyone else is disturbing

John Cena's Make-A-Wish segment lost 370,000 viewers and did the lowest rated quarter in months with a 2.64 rating.

Randy Orton vs. Chris Jericho gained 108,000 viewers and the closing segment with Cena and Laurinaitis gained 990,000 viewers for a 3.43 overrun rating. This was among the best overrun gains of the year.
