>SmackDown beat RAW in viewership this week.
>This week's WWE SmackDown, the loaded final show of 2016 with John Cena's return plus WWE Champion AJ Styles vs. Baron Corbin vs. Dolph Ziggler in the main event, drew 2.885 million viewers. This is up from last week's 2.637 million viewers.
>SmackDown was #3 for the night on cable in viewership, behind college football on ESPN and Curse of Oak Island. SmackDown was #3 in the 18-49 demographic, behind college football and Curse of Oak Island.
>In comparison, Monday's RAW averaged 2.855 million viewers, down from last week's 2.955 million viewers.
>Smackdownies have to pull all stops and John Cena to be on equal footing with a shitty Raw champion
(lol
>>2094793
SEETHING
All stops? What did they do, bring back Goldberg for the first time? No that's not it. Featured celebrity cameos? NO that RAW too...
John Cena is a member of their roster who's only been gone about a month. The main event featured a relative unknown Corbin, Dolphlol Ziggler and a manlet. So what stops did they really pull?
>A tie is a win
I bet you think Sami "Alluha Snakbar" Zayne beat Braun Stroman too?
Big Draw Ziggler showing who the boss is
>>2094793
>RAWtist just can't stop SEETHING
Even with years of public perception Smackdown has still grown in viewership gradually due to it's superior quality, while RAM has consistently under performed. Cena was on Smackdown for a lot of weeks before this and never effected ratings positively. One of it's worst rated shows post brand split was main evented by Cena He's an attendance draw, not a ratings one. this is all down to the quality and how Smack built this show up, whereas RAM can't even build to it's PPVs.
>>2094802
Jesus, you rawtists aren't just childlike, you're actually illiterate too?
FUCK OFF VINCE
GET RID OF THAT THIRD HOUR, YOU SENILE PIECE OF SHIT
>>2094810
Being illiterate is being literate
>>2094788
Based Boring Big Dawg putting over SmackDown
Smackdown was a good show with three title matches and of course John Cena was coming back. While nothing important happened on Raw.
Is anyone surprised about that?
>>2094810
Numbers are just too complex for them to follow. I mean, 885 and 855 are just a bit too close for them to comprehend that they're different.
Just fucking fire Roman and Seth and Raw will be good and watchable again

???
>>2094821
John Cena's return was shilled too...by Raw and they shilled Smackdown's mini-PPV show.
>>2094823
Nice try Kev, but neither of them are champions nor the focal point of the show
>>2094826
Yeah, I forgot to mention that. When you heavily promote you shows, you get good ratings.
>>2094827
RAM is literally Roman the show you fucking dirty slut,
>Switch to RAW
>Roman
>Switch to another channel, later to RAW
>Roman
>Tune in for the Main event
>Roman
Every fucking week
Some People will say well RAW wins normally. The thing is your A show should NEVER lose to the B show.
>>2094835
>RAM is literally Roman the show
>making shit up
Roman has only been feuding with the Fatso for 4-5 weeks.
>>2094826
just like they shilled for Goldberg on SD
>>2094839
Exactly. Yet he still showed up every 5 seconds before the feud started. I'm not one of the big Roman haters, I'm just sick of seeing him all day. Give me something new. I'm starting to get sick of Seth also.
I always hated Kevin and was indifferent to Roman and Seth but now I actively root for Kevin just because I can't stand seeing Roman and Seth.
Idk if I'm being worked by them or if I'm working myself at this point
RAWTISTS ON SUICIDE WATCH
Here you have it. Cena is a draw and Roman is not. And he will never be a draw.
To be fair, besides that one Corbin botch during the main event of SD, that match was PPV main event worthy.
>>2094862

>>2094862
Roman was responsible for Raw's ratings increase two weeks ago.
John had to be heavily advertised for his return for two weeks and it barely beat Raw.
>>2094793
>Rawtard thinks that having ACTUAL wrestling matches instead of 20 minute management promos is "pulling out all the stops"
lol vince on suicide watch
>They'll watch it anyway, who cares it it's good
Heard this attitude recently.. November I think...
>>2094874
You mean you don't want a half hour emotional speech from Foley to each individual member of the roster every week?
Based lone wolf is a draw put the belt on him

It's great. He should wear it more often.
This is all Mick Foleys fault. Blame Roman or Owens all you want, deep down you all know who the true cancer is. Its just Attitude era nostalgia that keeps you from noticing the problem.
>cuckdown puts on a 2 hour free ppv with the return of John Cena

RAWtists... what excuses can they possibly make?
>>2095087
everyone on this board dislikes foley though
>raw goes up against a record high rating mnf game
>smackdown goes up against a regular college football game
>smackdown advertised John Cena's return and 3 (three) title matches the week before, essentially a PPV
>can only tie a shit RAW where Kevin Owens had more screen time than Roman and Seth combined
Can't make this shit up
AJ doesn't draw, SD attendance is still abysmal every week.
WE DID IT, WE CONQUERED THE STREAK
All these rawtists so salty, your 'big dog' reigns isn't as good as you thought.
>>2095134
>implying Roman is a bigger draw than Owens
ya're trolling aren't ya
Not surprised in the slightest, Smack is just the better product overall.
>>2095137
The attendance was better than Raw this week.
>>2095181
Did you not watch talking smack? Jbl btfo American alpha for giving out 400 free tickets
>>2095183
I'm pretty sure it was a joke.
>>2095189
No it wasn't. The black one admitted it. Then jbl said it again when they left
>>2094788
The recent smackdown was literally a GOAT
Reminder that just a year ago Smackdown was a nothing dead weight show that nobody cared about.
Based Styles, Miz and Cena have caused Smackdown to rise from the ashes like a blue phoenix.
>>2095115
lone wolf>domesticated pupper
Red alert, trying to shine a light down
On the front line, turn my mind now
Biding my time on the high ground
Blinded but I'm still alive, shout oh
They said we're lucky to have got this far
And that it's not worth fighting for
The words are written on the wall
Come on and fight back, we'll start it over again
We'll take it right back from the ones we're against
It's time to rise up even though they left us for dead
This is our last stand
Take a chance now, and draw a line in the sand
You tear our hands now, no living with regret
It's time to rise up even though they left us for dead
This is our last stand
Wearing what's right on my heels
Sweat on my skin, pins and needles
Forget it all right, can you feel
That this is our time, make it real, shout oh
They said we're lucky to have got this far
And that it's not worth fighting for
The words are written on the wall
Come on and fight back, we'll start it over again
We'll take it right back from the ones we're against
It's time to rise up even though they left us for dead
This is our last stand
Take a chance now, and draw a line in the sand
You tear our hands now, no living with regret
It's time to rise up even though they left us for dead
This is our last stand

This was actually a semi half way decent RAM compared to teh past shitty months. They made it an end of the year show. SD is just the better show.

Once Taker lost his streak, no one really gives a fuck about anything that has to do with Taker anymore. His last drawing potential is gone.

I assume nobody actually picks a side and that this 'Raw vs Smackdown' is all just a bit.
Right?
Right?

One show is quality, one show is HISTORIC women main eventing if not dreadful 3 hours of insignificant events.
So yeah, there shouldn't be a fight, because a cuck show is always a loser.
