Ouch!

WWE Ratings for the week of April 5 were 2.9 and 2.6.

Was this the week they were up against the NCAA? I forget whether there were other programs on that night.

[Ermaximus]

Yea. The NCAA title game between Butler and Duke was that night.

[Anybody Thrilla]

NCAA was two weeks ago.

Quick question...why are you so obsessed with the ratings?

[Ermaximus]

He's talking about the 4/5 ratings though ABT, which was 2 weeks ago.

[Anybody Thrilla]

That's fine. I was just stating that it was two weeks ago.

Duly noted sir.

[Swiss Ultimate]

What did TNA get?

People were just talking about the Monday night Wars and ratings on a weekly basis.

Total obsession, dude.

[Ermaximus]

What did TNA get?

I'd guess a 0.7 or lower.

Kane is all about numbers. Sad really. He lives in a world of data.

Maybe he's not a person but he is some really advanced computer?

Don't snub me, bro. You're always talking about ratings. You're gonna pretend that you're not?

The man knows his shit... Props.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Kane Knight is always talking about ratings, but it's an aspect of professional wrestling. It's not something I have really cared about, but it's not like it's not worth discussing.

Onto the topic at hand: I am tempted to reverse the what people say about TNA, and talk about how the WWE is going under, but I'll refrain. I am curious to see TNA's ratings, though.

[Anybody Thrilla]

I didn't mean to say it's not worth discussing, but it feels like he discusses it a lot. It also seems he doesn't enjoy much he sees on WWE programming.

Anyway, my stance...I'll care about ratings when WWE is in danger of losing TV time over them. Until then, I could care less. Maybe I shouldn't have posted in this thread then, right?

[Mr. Nerfect]

Nah, I enjoy you posting anywhere. You're a good poster. But yes, you are right -- KK does discuss it a lot. But I guess we all have our things. Mine being Val Venis, Brian Kendrick & Paul London in a threesome. With Doug Basham watching.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Jack Swagger for me.

Throw him into Noid's gangbang, guy probably gives disturbing oral.

Too much teeth, not enough Gutwrench Powerbombs.

Gotta admit though... He does look like he could suck the gold plate off that title through a straw...

[Ermaximus]

Imagine a porno made with John Morrison and Melina. Jesus the things they'd do to each other....

[Anybody Thrilla]

This thread has taken a rather disturbing turn.

[KIRA]

Howd we go from ratings to discussing Morrison and Melina's bedroom Olympics

WWE Did You Know?

The highest rated Monday Night Raw ever was the night after Owen Hart passed away. The show that night drew a 7.2.

[Kane Knight]

I'd guess a 0.7 or lower.

LOL. Wouldn't be surprised.

Don't snub me, bro. You're always talking about ratings. You're gonna pretend that you're not?

Hmmm...You know, until Xero and company brought it up in regards to the "Monday Night Wars," I hadn't really brought it up in quite a while....I stopped even checking Nielsen Media Research, because I lost interest.

I know we're on a board for a genre that's all about hyperbole, but seriously. If you think you're being snubbed, it's only because the original question was kinda dumb. And ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer.

My interest will wane soon, probably. Now that TNA's backed off the "head to head" thing that the morons thought would lead to a real battle, the "MNW" threads are mostly gone, and there's not much left to say about it.

However, since there's still some stuff to be said, I'm just going to point out that two years, three years, five years ago, the ratings wouldn't have changed this much for NCAA or the NBA. Even against playoffs, they normally held their own, with only small losses.

I do think it's telling that they were losing fans going into Wreslemania and losing fans coming out. And while you can blame it on Butler/Duke, it's at the point where doing so is kind of like blaming TNA's ratings on Wrestlemania. It's more excuse than explanation.

I expect the ratings for the 12th did bounce back, but bouncing back shouldn't have even been an issue for the titan that is World Wrestling Entertainment.

So yeah. My "obsession" will likely end in a week or two. some "obssession."

[Anybody Thrilla]

We'll see....we'll see...
