You think you're ing king **** don't you lol, the new talent isn't bad at all, there is just no great storyline to get them over. YES, STORYLINE, they can all wrestle fine, but at the end of the day, it's the drama that gets a wrestler over. I didn't watch the show, but considering this guy 'died' on tv, and came back, I would want to know where it was going. I don't have to think highly of myself to comment on what I see. People here are marking out for the return of a 60 year old non-wrestler and looking to him to save the ratings. The roster is full of young talent and new faces and they are not connecting with the fans, which I agree is the primary fault of the writers. So again, what does that say that Vince, a 60 year old non-wrestler, doesn't say to his writing staff, if you can come up with something interesting for me, you should be able to do it 20 times easier for more talented, better looking, actual wrestlers. So I am not bagging on the young guys. I am bagging on Vince and his writing crew that would much rather see an old man as the savior of the company than the actual wrestlers. Obviously that 60 year old non wrestler does something right as about 2 million more people tuned in to see him...

Maybe you'll get it in caps, LAST WEEK WAS AN ERROR, IT WAS GLITCH, THEY PROBABLY DID ABOUT THE SAME NUMBERS, VINCE DOESN'T EQUAL RATINGS, NO ONE CARES FOR A 60 YEAR OLD JUICED UP GUY, WHO HAS LOST TOUCH WITH CURRENT WRESTLING SCENE

I doubt they made THAT big of an error but I could be wrong... 2.3 was the error rating, with the corrected rating being a 3.2. That means roughly 600,000 more people tuned in this week.

-_- How many times does this have to be said? (It seems like every week)
A 3.8 rating is by NO MEANS a bad rating. 3.8 means that they had damn near 4 million people watching. Also keep in mind that it is merely a sample rating as only 50% of the United States are surveyed for these ratings numbers. This does not include numbers from Canada, Mexico, the UK etc... it is ONLY indicative of how many people in the states were watching as that is all they are testing for...

It doesn't matter, USA is not happy with anything under a 4.5. The WWE apologists will always cry and complain that these numbers are acceptable yet the network that airs the show isn't happy. Some roided up 60 year old billionaire and a who is the father storyline aren't going to get it above a 4.0.

Raw did better this week than the past few weeks. That's a fact.

This is better news for WWE. I actually thought this show was pretty weak, there was nothing really overly must watch about the show.

They should just bring back one big name, I think that would honestly freshen up the scene and help things.
..Break the walls down?
