I think fans in general have just grown tired of wrestling. The product as a whole has gotten stale, predictable, boring, and is nowhere near exciting to the point that keeps people tuning in. WWE's process of yo-yo pushing is not helping either. Of course, with no competition the WWE doesn't feel the need to change. The day is coming when the WWE drops wrestling all together, and the show turns into a long live soap opera. Hasn't it been a "long live soap opera" since the 80s? |

The Punk vs. Bryan match lost viewers Unless you're saying that the 10 PM slot lost viewers, then it would be normal considering that the following quarter, which the match bleed into, almost always loses viewers. Was the 10 PM Slot |

Can we just accept that this latest experiment with Laurenitis just isn't working? The guy just isn't that interesting. I get they're trying for a Vince II with the guy, but he's so flat out boring. Vince was entertaining as hell, and Johhny just can't fill those shoes. His segments usually have some of the best ratings of the show. |

I honestly watched the Hartfields & McCoys instead, of course I'm a history buff. Sadly however, I haven't really been interested in RAW for almost two months now. |

I know this RAW's rating had more to do with Cena not being there, but the last time they were this low, it was when Kane was feuding with Cena in December.
Also when Orton was feuding with Kane, they were the lowest ratings for an Orton segment in a long time. Maybe Kane is just not a draw anymore?
