Oh wow! It gained as it went on instead of dropping out during the later hours! Is this the first time Raw has done this?

Clearly a battle royal with the possible appearance of Andre the Giant's ghost is a ratings bonanza.

People were staying tuned in in the hopes of seeing more HHH

Who knew a random battle royale could actually grow the audience? I find it baffling that anyone would stay tuned for Heyman/Punk in an alleged match.

Possible Bipolar Shield appearance kept everyone glued to their TV's and gained people along the way.

This is why you need to negotiate with Kreizman into staying, WWE.

People were staying tuned in in the hopes of seeing more HHH Or they thought it was safe to watch because he was in the first hour. But like a shark in the wide open sea, he will always show up to ruin your precious little beach party. I think I'm starting to mix up movie references. Clearly a battle royal with the possible appearance of Andre the Giant's ghost is a ratings bonanza. I would love to have seen that. When I was a teenager, my idiot friends and I had a living room wrestling promotion and we had a character named the Ghost that nobody can see but the camera. So everybody was getting hit and had to pretend they couldn't see him. Several minutes later, in order to be able to attack him, everybody committed suicide mid-match and began clotheslining him. It was our only VHS video tape we made since half the roster 'deceased' that night. Oh, and we had a steel cage match in which we put a doggy door in front of the camera. Then one of my friends took the doggy door and used it as an illegal weapon. We didn't have what you call a structured system.

They were smart to have Punk slyly advertise Brock Lesnar's appearance. People probably expected it anyway, but he confirmed it in his promo.

The Great Khali & Natalya vs. Big E Langston & A.J. Lee segment grew about 140,000 viewers. The segment with Vince McMahon in the ring with Brad Maddox and then HHH coming out to set him up as the referee for the SummerSlam title match grew about 560,000 viewers to a 3.2 quarter. Alberto Del Rio vs. Kofi Kingston lost about 300,000 viewers. Then the Usos vs. Jack Swagger & Antonio Cesaro lost about 140,000 viewers. So the huge second hour gains were really all for the McMahon/Maddox segment carrying the hour as opposed to the entire hour. The Miz TV segment with John Cena and Daniel Bryan gained about 560,000 viewers as well, doing a 3.3. But it lost roughly the same 560,000 viewers when Fandango and R-Truth did their dance off. The Battle Royal did well, gaining about 400,000 viewers and then the C.M. Punk, Paul Heyman, Brock Lesnar and Curtis Axel segment gained more than 400,000 viewers as well, basically normal overrun, ending at a 3.5.
