Cable viewers like it Raw
By Mike McAvennie
Written: January 10, 2007
Raw kicked off 2007 the exact same way it dominated cable throughout 2006: on top.
Don’t take WWE.com’s word for it (though really, you should)—the numbers don’t lie. According to Nielsen Media Research, the 9 and 10 PM (EST) telecasts of WWE’s flagship program—in which 2.5 million new viewers (9 milion total) watched WWE Champion John Cena FU a deserving Kevin Federline to the canvas in Miami’s American Airlines Arena—ranked as the top two primetime cable programs for the week of January 1.
Clearly, WWE viewers also rank among the most intelligent. Rather than pull an all-nighter at their friend’s New Year’s Eve bash and stay up for ESPN’s early-morning airing of the Outback Bowl (which barely beat out Raw among all cable programs that week), they slept in, learned later how Penn State’s Nittany Lions trounced the Tennessee Volunteers, 20-10, then tuned into Monday Night Raw on the USA Network, refreshed and recharged. Well done, WWE fans!

I've heard about kissing up, but that's ridiculous.

I watch WWE and I was kicked out of college for fighting,causing disturbances,and drinking and knowing most of the fanbase I dispute the "intelligence" claim
Also Penn State and Tennessee>K-Fed and Cena

But anyway, yeah, what he said was outright bad. |

Numbers do lie-they just do. How many people wish they couldve taken back that 2 hours of their lives after watching Raw?

WWE's rigged it so the only ones who contribute to ratings are the actual WWE superstars, and they are told to tune their TVs to USA and leave them on while they are away. |

Vince:OBEY!

Dude, they cheer for a guy whose gimmick is that he is Hulk Hogan if he was a rapper and had join ed the navy. If that is the definition of inteligence, I am a completely retard.

A pat on the back is dangerously close to a kick in the butt, which is what the WWE needs

Speaking of Ratings.
Now that there is no more Football games on Monday this season. Watch as Raw's rating suddenly goes up and the WWE Creative Staff and Vinnic Mac take credit for the rise.
Happens every year.

WWE reminds me of a perverted version of the Ouroboros. Instead of consuming it's own tail, it prefers to consume it's own....

I think I speak by a lot of people here when I say...What in the seven blue hells is a Ouroboros?

A big snake that consumes it's own tail, just think about Genetic Jackhammers and self-consumation and you're good to go.

Good job WWE! Thank you for providing me with such quality entertainment in 2007. Not just anyone could produce an unfunny skit with people dressed up like Donald Trump and Roseie O'Donnell. I certainly can't see that kind of stuff on Saturday Night Live or Comedy Central or Conan or Jay Leno or Mad TV or anywhere else. WWE is the only media outlet clever enough to pull off such a witty endeavor.

Huh.
Never realized that 20-10 was "trouncing", especially in college football.
I always saw that as a "two score difference."
