>Monday’s episode of WWE RAW did 3,115 million viewers, which is down from the 3,615 million viewers the show did last week
>8pm: 3.339 million
>9pm: 3.165 million
>10pm: 2.842 million
PEOPLE WERE EXCITED TO SEE JOE BUT CHANGED THE CHANNEL WHEN ROMANETTY WAS SHOEHORNED INTO THIS FEUD
FIRE HIM ALREADY
>Seth is injured and not on the show
>Ratings tank
Really percolates my synapses.
>señor joe so fat he sunk the ratings
[fat tuba music intensifies]
>>2244881
>the absolute non-drawing state of Sloppy Joe
>>2244898
Is that what we're calling Reigns now? Cool
Triple H is a draw
>>2244928
He said Sloppy Joe not BIG DOG, get some glasses kiddo and spend some time away from your pc.
>>2244890
Seth couldn't draw flies to shit
>>2244881
I thought people would love Samoe Joe, what happened?
>Samoa Joe vs Roman Reigns announced
>rating tanks because watchers thought that Ramen was wrestling himself
>all these fedoramen ignoring that their poor pupper isn't the draw they thought he was
The ratings boost was just because of the post Rumble, Raw simply went back to normal.
And Raw's normal sucks, everyone knows that.
Also possible indicator that the Rumble/Raw failed to hype feuds (that's unironically because of WWE's obsession with putting Roman everywhere).
senor joe is an anti draw lmao
>>2244881
>Based Joe comes out, everyone's hyped
>Seth's replacement for Joe feud comes out
>It's roman
>500k tune out
KEK
>>2244962
Nah definitely think it's Boremans new name, I'm 100% sure. He's sloppy and his name is Joe. Duh
>>2244881
FUCKING FIRE SLOPPY JOE JESUS CHRIST
>>2244969
They made him face Reigns and people realised Raw Is Roman is back
What actually happened, I'm pretty sure, is people tuned in for Goldberg. When he was gone, they left.
They are really in deep shit when he leaves after Mania. Nobody else on the Raw roster is a draw except Brock, and he won't be back 'til SummerSlam.
>>2244890
>don't you know who I am?
>i'm Seth FREAKIN' Rollins!
>FREAKIN'!!!!
> Everyone tuned out when they announced Seth's medical condition and basically confirmed he won't be appearing for a long time
Expect the ratings to be gradually worse over the weeks now that the #1 draw of the current era is out.
It's 2015's end year all over again.
>>2245171
cringe
>>2244881
>people excited to see Joe
99% of WWE fans don't know who he is, they saw a fat potato close the show, EXCITING
>goldberg shoehorned into title picture
>ratings plummett
more proof roman is a top 5 all time draw
>>2244969
Only smarks cared about him.
Joe is just another fat fuck on the WWE.
Plus is hard to buy Joe as a serious threat when you already have Braun and Brock in there.
>>2245323
>Only smarks cared about him.
AYUP
You get me this guy looking like pic related and ratings will double
Samoa joe can't draw flies to shit just like him in TNA and him in nxt
Smarks BTFO
>>2244881
The post rumble show was an outlier. More people tuned in to see how things would start going now that we are headed towards wrestlemania
>>2245379
Joe was one of the few guys in TNA that did draw
>>2245379
joe and cuck angle did the record buyrate for tna
>>2245144
That FREAKIN' thing is the worst thing that happened to Seth. It just reminds everyone that yes, this is PG.
>>2245392
I'm 95% certain they did that just so HHH could cut that SETH FRIGGIN' ROLLINS promo
>Old guy who hasn't wrestled a real match is in the Main Event for Fast Lane announcement
>Samoa Joe is here and was close to Jobbing to the Big Dawg
>Stephanie given air time
>Sami Zani gets cheated out of his title match
>The Cruiserweights are on TV promoting 205 live
>Tag Team Title Match ends in DQ
>realize almost all the matches ended in some kind of DQ
Is Raw on Suicide watch?
>>2245406
>>The Cruiserweights are on TV promoting 205 live
Tozawa's Raw debut was easily one of the segments that got the better crowd reaction last night.
>>2245406
This
DQs are out of control and no one gets to go over.
>>2245412
Was is? It didn't really seem like the crowd poped, but maybe it's just me.
>>2245413
If someone does go over people just complain that it wasn't the one they liked, or they bemoan the fact that sometimes they can't both get over.
>>2244894
THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE!
>>2245406
Oh my god I think the Cruiserweights were the only matches with clean finishes the entire night.
>>2245420
The crowd didn't pop when he came in, of course, after all the guy is some literal who that was an indie guy even in Japan. But during the match the crowd started to get into his chanting/yelling and by the time it was over you could clearly sense he had gotten far more over with the crowd than what he was when he walked in.
>>2245427
>Nia Jax def. Bayley
Bayley distracted by Charlotte
>Braun Strowman def. Four local competitors
Nigga...
> Akira Tozawa def. Drew Gulak
Clean win
>Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows def. Sheamus & Cesaro

>The New Day def. The Shining Stars
Who cares
>Chris Jericho def. Sami Zayn
Dirty Finish
>Jack Gallagher, TJ Perkins & Cedric Alexander def. Noam Dar, Neville & Tony Nese
Clean
>Samoa Joe def. Roman Reigns
DQ
Our of the 8 matches: 2 were Cruiserweight matches, and you can argue that the other 2 were squash matches.
>they somehow always manage to keep low ratings from being Roman's fault even though it's when he's always featured
Hmm
So it's Joetty, right?
Or Samoa record Low?
>>2245485
Why watch Raw do the same shit it's done for years when Smackdown is at least trying. People who would have never mattered before are given a chance.
>People saying Samoa Joe is the problem
Are they serious are just baiting hard? Joe matches are dope. He puts way more effort into them that Roman does.
>>2245515
he's record low joe
>>2245369
That fucking filename.
>>2245219
18+ Seth was /ourguy/ in the build to and first couple months of his reign. PJWTS
>>2245460
>>Samoa Joe def. Roman Reigns
>DQ
Dirty win.
>>2246933
Shit, you're right. For some reason I thought Brawn hit him.
>>2244890
people knew seth was injured before the show started
>>2244881
Kevin Owens literally killing the company
>>2247093
no one knew seth was injured
smarks account for 10 % of the audience max
>>2245384
>implying a single dime was because of joe and not our olympic hero
>>2244881
>even monster draw BBD can't save raw from sloppy joe
The state of joetty
>>2245460
Meanwhile, SmackDown had four matches and all of them had clean results.
>>2247156
Clear winners and losers. Plus Shane isn't like steph. He just wants to kill himself in ring
