According to WrestlingObserver.com, RAW ended up doing a 3.0 rating overall.

This is how we get ratings.

I weep for humanity if that Cena promo did the best rating. One step closer to "Ass" the movie.

It's still higher than any Raw rating we've had in the fall, but a little lower than the last two weeks. It's a good number, but not an exceptional one. Although that shouldn't be a cause for concern (though of course it will be), since Raw 1/7 featured the return of The Rock and Raw 1/14 was the 20th anniversary. This was just business as usual. |

Raws with The Rock shouldn't be business as usual. If they are then there's a problem. |

We're way past the point where Rock alone is going to boost ratings significantly. Him showing up on Raw isn't an event anymore, and nobody is going to rush to their televisions because he's there when they can see his segments on YouTube the next day. That doesn't mean they won't spend money to see him wrestle on pay-per-view, but we can't expect ratings in the 3.6 area just because he's around - and you'll eventually find that will extend to Brock/HHH/'Taker.
And I remember saying exactly this when the rating for Raw 1/7 came out.
Remember how ratings for WrestleMania season last year never got past 3.1? And yet WM28 ended up doing great business regardless? It's probably going to be the same here. "Business as usual" doesn't mean that there's a problem, just that your expectations might be too high.

Yeah - anyone who thought the Rock appearing on tv would do anything real for RAW's ratings was living in 2001.
I mean, a much-hyped one-shot, that'll move a few numbers, but multiple appearances - you'll see diminishing returns on that one. Not that a PPV won't see a bump, but just that the nostalgic novelty wears off pretty quick to everyone not in attendance.
