The prior seasonal record low was 3.12 million viewers, and while the rating isn't out as of this writing, it should equate to a 2.1 or 2.2 rating ...

The three hours were:

8 p.m. 3.04 million viewers
9 p.m. 3.11 million viewers
10 p.m. 2.76 million viewers
For some comparisons, the Cavs-Warriors game had ten times more viewers watching on average.

Also for the lack of deceased pro wrestlers brains being among the brains donated for research. http://www.bostonglobe.com/sports/20...?event=event25

While this hasn’t been confirmed yet, numerous websites and personalities have said that the reason the NWA President Bruce Tharpe was at NXT Takeover: The End and meeting with Triple H was over the WWE looking to acquire a new library. And the library is an important one.

Supposedly, the WWE is attempting to acquire the Houston Wrestling library. Paul Boesch’s Houston Wrestling is one of the biggest and most important libraries the WWE doesn’t already own, and with a little more classic content appearing on the service lately and major shows close to being completed with classic content likely to be focused on even more going forward, it only makes sense that the company would need more content.

Of course, they have a hundred thousand hours and then some of content not yet available, but WWE is preserving history and truly becoming the library for pro wrestling and with this, they take one step closer toward that goal. Beyond that, Mike Johnson of PWInsider had mentioned months ago that the company was looking at international libraries. And finally, Les Thatcher is in talks with WWE as the company is attempting to obtain the Heartland Wrestling Association library from 2000 and 2001 during the period the company acted as a developmental system for WWE.

Update regarding the rumor of WWE expanding the amount of ppvs.


Some other sheet news includes:
  • Al Snow was a recent guest on Hannibal TV speaking about the infamous Kennel From Hell match he had with Big Bossman. Pretty much blamed Vince Russo for the idea and ignoring the plea for the dogs to be trained. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84CQ374LenA&spfreload=5
  • Website NewsItem.com had a recent interview with Mick Foley in regards to his new show on the WWE Network. http://www.newsitem.com/news/2016-06...y_show_at.html
  • WWE announced a new match for the upcoming MitB ppv which will be Baron Corbin vs Dolph Ziggler and will occur on the pre-show. Also announced for the MitB card itself is Sheamus vs Apollo Crews.
  • Chris Jericho was revealed to be this week's guest for ESPN's wrestling segment.
  • WWE revealed Sasha Banks, Ultimate Warrior, and John Cena as the first wrestlers for WWE 2k17's roster. https://twitter.com/WWEgames/status/742794267634995200
  • Goldberg was announced to be a guest for next week's episode of the Steve Austin Show podcast.

We'll probably see Chris Masters come back.

Which is good.
