Not a shocker.
RAW's been slowly sliding downhill since a couple months before WM.
For some reason WWE really thinks fans want to see Johnny L in any capacity (they don't) and the WWE title being treated like the IC title is just bizarre.

I stopped watching after the Big Show segment.I was really depressed for some reason. Yeah I realized then that I had literally been watching The Big Show for 18 years... and 18 years of my life had past... I didn't realize it had been that long.. I still remember his epic debut on WCW |

I want the segment breakdowns. Plus, the actual viewer numbers dont ever seem to change, they're always around the 4.5 Million mark Last week's show did a 3.03 rating with 4.31 million viewers and the Extreme Rules fallout show did a 3.33 with 4.88 million viewers. And the breakdown will be fun to read. So... this week's episode actually got MORE viewers than last week's. Still a crappy rating, but not as catastrophic as it looks at a glance. I assume Triple H and Cena are what pushed this one up. |

I'd like to see the ratings segment by segment. I can just see it crashing during the big show stuff. |

I know I quit watching about midway through the tag match show opener and didn't look back.
I even taped it to see if I cared later and only made it past the Big Show segment ( on fast forward no less), and then just gave up entirely.

Rangers v. Devils in the Eastern Conference Finals probably killed the rating in the NY/NJ area, which is full of wrestling fans. Maybe that had something to do with it.

It's probably not any one thing that's affecting the ratings, Stanley Cup finals, Baseball, etc... there's plenty of other things to watch. You can't just pinpoint one guy. By that logic I could say "Oh it's Daniel Bryan appearing on RAW/CM Punk" is killing the ratings, or "Lesnar is killing the ratings!"
Come on now. Silliness.

WWE feels so stagnant and uninteresting lately that it's not even worth tuning in for, so I know I didn't bother watching Raw. Judging from what's being said here, doesn't sound like I missed anything.

Johnny Ace as the most important guy in WWE everyone... You mean, "heel authority figure" version 127 ISNT drawing in viewers? |

It deserved a lot worse.
I hate that WWE feels it needs to force the absolute worst heels upon us, as if the crowd really cares about them. No...the crowd hates them and doesn't want them on the product. I'm looking at you Johnny Ace and Vickie Guerrero.
I'm amazed we haven't gotten any build towards the WWE title. Absolutely pathetic...Punk might be a great performer, but as far as a character and representation of the WWE title, he absolutely sucks.

I want to see the breakdowns. I want to see how many people left in droves after the Big Show segment. On last night's Observer radio, Dave Meltzer basically seemed to expect a good number for the Big Show segment. Which he and Bryan Alvarez loved and gushed over. I have to say I was surprised, because I thought it was absolutely horrible. |

Judging from what's being said here, doesn't sound like I missed anything. Yeah, I'd only been watching once every two weeks or so since like November, and for the past month I haven't watched at all. Don't intend to start doing so again any time soon, if only because between Mania and Money in the Bank every year WWE completely stops putting in any effort. |

Oh, I know. I definitely expect the ratings to have tanked for the Big Show segment. I was just surprised that Meltzer and Alvarez enjoyed that segment, and they were shocked at the amount of hate mail they got in regards to last night's Raw. |

Maybe they should ask their pal Todd Martin why it sucked. He put it perfectly. |

The Big Show segment was Shakespeare compared to the Cena one to follow. Honestly the only problem I had with the former is that it dragged on too long.
