>>1757779
>why can't the WWE draw after 15 years of diminishing brand value

>>1754442

>>1757770
>ratings are determined by the very end of a show

You didn't even think before posting this, did you?

Owens was a mistake.

Smarks will find some dumb shit excuse like football was on, when nobody gives a fuck about Steelers/Redskins or 49ers/Rams

All I read is excuses about why a show pushing all the indie darlings is failing. This shit keeps happening but there's always some outstanding circumstance happening precisely on mondays, precisely while RAW is airing, that explains why everyone is too busy to watch "the best of the best" in "the art of wrestling" perform.

Typical nu-male attitude: blame everything for your faults except yourself. It's time to face reality: these oompa loompas don't draw. Stop putting wish-fulfillment bullshit above the business if you're such purists.

I think punk losing may have caused this, most people can't take pro wrestling seriously after that.

He says this, but will defend Reigns to his last breath with not a hint of irony.

Smarks ruined wrestling, the evolution was slow but it started with Benoit and escelated to Dbry/Rollins/Dean/Owens.
Time for them to go back to anime and leave us with the scraps

>Raw is so terrible not even the literal jobbers want to be there anymore

>>1757884
Smarks didn't pander to him at first, Benoit was the template for wrestlers that rely on matches too much to get over.

When in reality the actual wrestling wasn't as important, it's a soap opera after all.

>>1757904
Yeah, remember that wrestling-free hour of Nitro that drew so fucking well?

>>1757907
You need a balance, nowhere did I say wrestling isn't important.
Wasn't AS important. The matches were a catalyst to further the wrestler. So you still need them.

Football season just started. Expect similar numbers until December.

HBGay and Wet Shart created that template long before Benoit.

RECORD. LOW. RATINGS.

>>1754442
Watch Smackdown beat it in the ratings

All these autists in this thread blaming the performers instead of the god awful storylines and creatives bullshit.

All of you need to

Hit the showers
Have sex
Get a clue

Ya pinheads

>>1758074
From what I've seen, smackdown looks like the superior product, but I don't know if that's enough to get higher ratings than raw at this point. I think the brand split may have happened a bit too late, but I'm willing to accept I might be wrong and smackdown's ratings are indeed better.

Now bow down everyone to the only man who can bring back those numbers.

womens wrestling is not a fucking draw. i dont know what the fuck theyre thinking opening with literal 30+ minutes of pure divashit. I tuned out myself personally when I saw the women go past the 10 minute mark. They could not promo if their lives depended on it. Insult to my intelligence.
