View Full Version : RAW Ratings plummets to hell because of HHH
- Triple H and Stephanie McMahon's confrontation with Big Show failed to entice a good number of fans as viewership continuously dropped during the show.
Monday's episode drew 3.887 million viewers, according to Zap2it.com. This is down from 4.152 million the week before.
Raw viewership peaked during the first hour, drawing 4.069 million viewers. The second hour drew 3.951 million viewers, before plunging to 3.643 million in the third and final hour featuring a confrontation between the power couple and "The World's Largest Athlete."
There is said to be a lot of backstage heat on HHH for not delivering higher numbers. This is reportedly the reason Vince is hesitant to go forward with a Big Show/HHH match and has Show moving into a feud with ratings draw Randy Orton.
I wonder if Triple H will be forced to live in the dawg houze now!!1!

i blame it on daniel bryan.
I am confused why John Cena is a higher ratings draw than Big Show.
Big Show has been the face of the company for years.
"There is said to be a lot of backstage heat on HHH for not delivering higher numbers"
ahaha christ, somebody actually sat down and wrote that with a straight face and now there's probably a bunch of frothing spastics stating it as fact in the Youtube comment sections. Wooo wrestling
I didn't even know there was a wrestling forum here still.

kane knight levels of journalistic integrity, i'm sure.
It's because Stephanie didn't act enough like a BIMBO!
Speaking of which, is Big Show's ear injury legit?
If so, then how easy will it be for his opponents to just use the ear clap (bell clap?) and the ear pull to make him submit? :shrugs:

case by case basis.
Who would slap Big Show harder: Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley or Gorgeous Dale Newstead?
I'm betting on GDN! :)
Where is this backstage heat coming from? Seems as if it's a perpetual motion machine.

The heat comes from an electric dog house.

maybe it's because this whole lawsuit angle is a bit too much and really bad

Maybe because people thought it was stupid that Daniel Bryan is ok with getting screwed out of the title.

These "reports" are funny...First Daniel Bryan is the ONLY cause for the low Summerlsam buy rate, next Trips has heat which is causing McMahon to be reluctant moving foward...BULLSHIT! If Vince had any doubts in Trips he wouldn't have given him the reigns in the first place. How short sighted do you think they are? If anyone here ran the WWE we'd have a new champ every hour of Raw...pathetic. I'm sure no one in the WWE knew there was a close NFL game between two long time rivals going on that night, yeah, they def dont pay attention to that stuff. You guys are funny.
I don't think the HHH/Big Show angle is great, but god damn...is it THAT bad?

I honestly had no idea what was going on for most of the "legal" segments. I mean, I could have pieced it together, but I don't think it would have been worth it.

I am wondering if James Steele still thinks Bryan is in the chase for the title and if he thinks he is why did they put him on this detour with the Wyatts?

HHH, the Board of Dir. may want to fire you
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Big Show: I'm suing you HHH
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Jericho: Stephanie, you are a 24/7 open for business slut!!
Attitude Era like ratings in no time.
Seriously though, Bryan got a big push with a crappy follow through and I could see why a lot of people were pissed.
Kane? In a suit? STUPID!!
How dare you belittle Suit Kane!
Where's James Steele to tell us we're wrong and should be beside him on our knees blowing Triple H?

3 hours now?
viewer fatigue if you ask me. "There's got to be something else on"

Steele and I were clearly NOT IN THE SAME CLOSET. Just wanted to clear that up before the RUMORS start! :)
This will sound like a really bad idea, but WWE has nothing to lose by bringing back Buff Bagwell the next time they're in Atlanta.
And speaking of Buff, it sounds like he accidentally burned a lot of bridges...

...Much like one TPWW fellow named CURTIS!!!
Buff Bagwell = Curtis :)
