People have to go places, do stuff, 3 hours is a lot, I'm sure it was more if we were getting a Randy Orton vs Sheamus match as the main event or something like that.

Just about anything they do, ratings won't go through the roof.

as others have said, the three hours is too much. i'll try and watch raw and end up losing interest halfway through.

I like rollins but he shouldn't be on the main stage. And ambrose should be on tna. Of course they would loose ratings with these guys Surely you're joking right? RIGHT?

And if they push rollins it needs to be done right. I think the whole ambrose is pissed off at rollins is played out. He needs to get over it and wash that greasy hair.

i really dont think PRE-SEASON football is detracting from RAW's ratings. Last year during pre-season they were getting just over 4 million average. this is about the 3rd hour dropping significantly, when there was an amazing main event to be witnessed. However the WWE is amazing at promoting everything besides what is going on. They love talking about their "ratings dominance" on friday nights. They love talking about how many followers people have on social media. They LOVE showing the audience what JUST happened 15 times a night So I just did a little math via Excel. I took the reported RAW ratings for the past year (8/19/13-8/18/14) Here's the numbers The Average RAW overall rating is: 4,176,170 The average rating for the 1st hour is: 4,166,189 The average rating for the 2nd hour is: 4,278,226 The average rating for the 3rd hour is: 4,089,472 Now of course, these are just "averages" don't really mean crap. But when you look at the numbers, clearly more people are watching from 9-10 than any thing else. I think it makes sense for them to recap things in the 2nd hour, but not in the 3rd and absolutely not in the 1st. 3 hours of wrestling/entertainment should be a ing BREEZE to fill with the amount of talent this company has But instead they do recaps, and squash matches. Because the writers suck and Vince is more concerned with social media and trying to appeal to teens than anything else. Whatever they are doing is just treadmilling. They aren't really going up OR down. That alone says the most about the current state of wrestling. And of course these are just the recorded ratings. I'm pretty sure there are more than 4 million watching RAW weekly...but I'd be willing to bet that a large percentage of people just watch all 3 hours no matter what.

Yeah I think it had to do with the 3 hours it is too much wrestling imo especially with half of them being pointless filler matches.

Maybe if they pushed people fans want to see then the ratings would get better. not enough fans want the same people for that to work

You know one of the biggest reasons I don't watch anymore? THREE HOURS. It's 3 hours of constant plugging and advertising.. It has only gotten worse too.. SELL! SELL! SELL! I swear they spend a good hour on replays and ads. But that main event was AMAZING. You're not just getting great in ring work or an entertaining match, but they are brilliantly telling an amazing story out there. Rollins/Ambrose have amazing chemistry. If DB was the first half of 2014 MVP.....Rollins is the 2nd half. Dude is off the chain right now. I haven't timed or kept up to date but I know 30 minute sitcoms used to have 22 minutes of show and 8 minutes of commercials. A 3 hour show would add up to 48 minutes of commercials based on that. But that would be a standard thing, not something that stood out compared to other programming

Maybe they wouldn't lose so many people if Raw wasn't so damn long. Make it 2 hours again please. And on a side note, they did miss an awesome match!
