I watched exactly 3 minutes of Raw. The first two minutes of the opening segment, then the final minute of what apparently was a four minute Sasha/Becky "match". Viewership dipped below 3 million. When will Vince learn he has to say goodbye to the old guys and let the new guys (and divas) come rumbling in?

Mick Foley pretty much summed up my feelings in his facebook post today. I bet I haven't watched an hour worth of Raw since September. Didn't see a single minute of Survivor Series and I didn't care. That was the weakest PPV card I have ever seen.

I could only make it through the opening segment. Sorry Sheamus, but I'm not entertained. What would have been entertaining is if Reigns had came down to the ring being angry, and destroyed everyone in the ring.

Actually, Reigns should of got his **** kicked in by Sheamus, Barrett, and Rusev and got storyline injured, that would of been entertaining. But oh wel

Watching the latest NXT, I love how they play off the rumors that corporate is backing Eva Marie. Really smart move on their part, and they should take a jab at internet rumors like that more often. Also smart not to make it a long, drawn-out technical match. It was entertaining for what it was. If Eva Marie was either a better actress or better wrestler, she'd be a good heel.

How PC has WWE become? Well, while it's entirely possible they just needed any reason to cut him, Brad Maddox was released for calling the Indianapolis Colt's "cocky pricks" in a dark promo recently.

This is already pure AIDS. And some can't understand why they are down 1 million fans of average weekly viewership in the last 12 months.

When crowds pop for and demand immaculated characters like Tyler Breeze, New Day, or John Cena, and were known for "Fandangoing". This **** can't possibly get any worse and the ratings prove it. But hey, at least the top 2 guys are selling merch, right?

Before I get berated by those with double chins and neck beards, here is the link

Average WWE RAW And SmackDown Ratings Down For September 2015, WWE Live Event Stats, More - WrestlingInc.com

I get so frustrated because top to bottom, they have the most depth and talent they've had in 10-15 years, and yet this is what we get on a weekly basis.

A Smackdown show strictly based on a wrestling format with the wasted talent alone, would crush this main show. Give Heyman complete control with guys like Bryan, Sandow, Cesaro, Ambrose, Harper (or the entire jobber family for that matter), Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks (who has the potential to headline a PPV, on the main roster, In my opinion), Lucha Dragons, Prime time players.....Rusev + Lana....I can keep going. He would eventually overtake them in ratings like he did years ago.

Leave Vince with his three hours of child like entertainment featuring Dolph Spangler, Tyler Breeze, John Cena, Fandango, Adam Rose, Roman Reigns, etc and allow Smackdown to target the 18-39 demo as it should. I hate seeing my favorite hobby / entertainment source **** on month after month, year after year, simply because they have an IPO and Vince loves his "office time" with top talent.

Something tells me they don't care a lot about the ratings at the moment. I'm guessing they are making a lot of money regardless of the ratings. They'll probably act when the ratings affect their bottom line.

Good point. Luckily their network is getting better and that's what they are literally banking on.

fans on the main forum consider 8 win seasons as a success and a great standard for Butch to meet from now on.

WWE sucks as a product right now.

My beloved A's are horrible with no promise anytime soon

Country music radio is horrible today.

Can I pretty please go back to the late 90s/early 2000s?

That's how you earn a pop. Organically through time and history and being a badass man. Yes, finally, that actually was awesome. Now don't chant it through every false finish for the next three hours.

Hahaha I honestly wanted it to be Spike. They should also bring Rhyno in and then you can have a 4 vs 4 table match.

It's cool to see Dreamer, but I'm tired of this gimmick. Instead of new and fresh stars, they are going after ratings by going old school. So now I guess the Jobber family loses to them at TLC?

1. No one has said that 8 wins is the standard. What people are saying is that Butch has us trending in the right direction. This team is close to being as good as they were in the 90s.

2. Rock > Country, IMO.
