>Those massive ratings drops in the past 5 years
How fucked is WWE come 2019?
>>2701031
Those are the actual ratings, not even the absolute number of viewers, right?
>mfw Daniel Bryan was the last great draw in American wrestling history
>lost 1/3rd of viewers in 5 years
LOLWWE
>>2701031
Hopefully Vince is dead by then and Haitch can revive the company before dies completely.
>ratings were up in 2014 compared to the previous year
>Bryan confirmed draw, stronger than TV decline
NWOWolfcuck lying: ''ratings were down with Bryan''
>>2701038
ratings aren't number of viewers (in millions)
>>2701098
Yeah...that's what I wrote...
But Romanlets told me Daniel Bryan wasn't a draw
funny thing about that chart is that the drop wasn't massive from 5 years ago,
-0.1 average in 1 year isn't bad if you consider tv decline
Bryan sending them up proves he's the GOAT and makes Neethammer cry at night
The real problem starts when Roman Reigns gets pushed
-0.2 in 2015 and would have been problably worse with Roman champ instead of Rollins
-0.45 in 2016 makes Roman a major flop and confirms what I'm saying
-0.27 for 2017, with the show again centered about Roman
>>2701139
In any previous era his push would have been killed ages ago.
The Daniel Bryan and CM Punk pushes drove away all the casuals and the Roman Reigns push is finishing the job by driving away the smarks that remain. Dead by 2020.
>>2701212
My only guess is that Vince knows the next TV deal he gets will be dogshit, so he doesn't even care.
>>2701031
Not very. Cable television is a worthless and dying medium for broadcasting and it has been for probably 5 years. Innovation in distribution will be the name of the game in the entertainment industry in the next decade or so and that is what will separate the winners from the losers
>>2701383
>Daniel Bryan becomes champ
>Ratings increase
Dumbass.
>>2701717
>Not very. Cable television is a worthless and dying medium
>doesn't influence the actual ratings
>>2701031
WWE is at the same level of relevancy as some random pg show from nickelodeon.
Another chart
>>2701031
>those 2012 numbers
>proof Punk was the biggest draw over the last 5 years
Eat shit you faggots!
The proof is right there in the numbers.
What's your defense now losers?
Stop fussing over the ratings of a childrens show.
Its dying and will be dead by 2020
>>2701031
Its okay they will sell the network to indians (who already get wwe pay per views for free)
>>2702784
>SEETHING

>>2702784
Miz outdrew Punketty as champ
Based Punk and Bryan were actually draws.
Daniel Bryan will go down in history as the last ratings draw WWE had. When people look at WWMeme after its death in 2021 they'll wonder why Bryan wasn't given the belt in 2015 again.
>>2701031
WWE isn't going to be a wrestling show. WWE is going to do what MTV did it's going to remove the part of it that made it a success and focus on other avenues. Movies, tv shows, possibly some spin off youtube channels and such. It'll be a marketing company or something and wrestling wont even be a factor
Most of you delusional fags can't accept the fact that wrestling is dying and there's nothing that can be done about it, wrestling had its boom period and now it's a joke which is looked down upon by everyone and only losers or mentally ill people watch it.
>>2701031
>How fucked is WWE come 2019?
Early-Mid 90s tier.
>>2701817
> Big drop from 2001 can be explained by wrestling going out of fashion and collapse of WCW
> Downward trend from 2007
> PeeGee era was established around the same time
Confirmed PeeGee wrestling is Anti-Draw
>>2701083
>implying HHH is a better booker than Vince
This whole 'HHH is the saviour of wrestling' meme needs to die. Triple H has a fucking terrible mind for the business. Let's look at some of what Triple H has done since taking a more coperate role:
>NXT is mostly terrible. It relies entirely on stars built by other promotions (Zayn, Balor, Nakamura, Joe, Roode etc) and has been shit since it's lead writer left for Smackdown
>speaking of stealing stars from other promotions, that will no longer be a possibility of hunter keeps trying to run indie companies out of business like he is doing now. He is actively trying to 100% monopolise wrestling.
>he still has a massive ego, and is the reason Reigns was given the push he was.
>it's also not a coincidence that the overall quality of wrestling has gone down since he started taking a more corporate role.
Honestly once Triple H takes more full control of the company, you can basically kiss the WWE goodbye.
>>2703460
I agree that he's overrated by people who think he will save WWE but I do agree that at the very least he has his finger closer to the pulse of today's fan than Vince does.
RIP WWE
Everyone's transitioning to MMA. Even kids.
>>2703430
Daniel Bryan is to Vince McMahon what Hulk Hogan was to Verne Gagne.
WWMeme are 2 out of their 3 audiences
Older casuals don't find anyone entertaining and are moving slowly to UFC which has characters like McGregor as well as not being fake.
Smarks (WWE's most reliable source of income) are moving to things like ROH and NJPW. Even NXT, WWMeme's way of trying to keep the smarks, is becoming shit.
The only audience WWE still has is children.
>>2701825
He missed literally 1 show
>Bryan is an idiot because his father died
holy shit you might be the biggest social retard on /asp/
>>2703460
>It relies entirely on stars built by other promotions
Sounds JUST like 80s WWF or present-day WWE desu
> and is the reason Reigns was given the push he was.
Reigns's push is 100% Vince
>>2703538
Even with kids, they will prefer to watch a more edgy product and spend money on it. Every 8-year-old worth his salt has GTAV and watches content on YouTube that would be R on TV, it's baffling that advertisers can't see this.
>>2703558
This, Kids are probably the most volatile audience to have because what they think is cool changes nearly every week and most of it is older stuff as you say.
>tfw MMA kills boxing, kickboxing and fake fighting.
>>2703559
Vince's fingerprints have been all over SDL ever since the Shakeup
>>2703625
Yeah I don't think Jinder champ is gaytch idea
>>2701139
>still obsessed with triphammer
lol someone seems TOUCHED
>people still don't think Gaytch killed wrestling
The ratings have been on a consistent downward spiral since he was handed the belt by Eric Bischoff
>>2703557
>reigns push is 100% Vince
You do realize Hunter wanted Brock vs Roman at 31 while Vince wanted Brock vs Rock
>>2703652
You just demonstrated Vince being an out-of-touch fool, good job.
Reigns is booked EXACTLY like Vince's pet babyfaces of the mid-90s.
>>2703553
You cant even read. You're the retard.
>>2701031
It's a fucking boring product.
