As Ratings continue to fall, do you think USA will ever deavor the E?

[MenacingMonk]

This always happens to TV shows. Low ratings = cancellation. I know the E brings in some sort of revenue for the USA Network, so that makes me think it won't happen. But at the same time, if ratings go under 2/1.50, will it be enough to drop it?

 

[Kidd Dibiase]

nope, they'll chop that 3rd hour off Raw though

WWE actually does pretty good for their target demo compared to a lot of non sports programming. There is nothing USA could replace Raw with that would get even those smaller numbers. Add that along with its longevity and global branding and you've got something that's pretty much guaranteed to be around a long time

The 3rd hour is when I coincidentally stop watching

WWE have two of the highest rated shows on the network with Raw being #1

 

[PlayerNinety_Nine]

Nah. They might try to lowball them when they renew the rights though.

Nope, they make too much money with the 3rd hour of advertisements

 

[RammerJammer]

While they do get their asses kicked by Love & Hip Hop every week, RAW is still the #1 show on USA

People on the Coli needs to understand that WWE will never be canceled on USA as long as there's a USA Network. Raw and SD are carrying the network at this point. There's nothing else.

They didn't push WWE to add a third hour to Raw & to go live for SD to then push them off the network. I say ESPN & FS1 comes with better offers next time actually

I'm not saying they'd throw them in the bushes. I'm saying they'd see the sense in offering to pay less money for a product with declining TV numbers.

You can look at it as Raw ratings being lower, but u can also see it as Raw ratings decline being much less than the decline of everything else on USA, the 3rd hour revenue and SD being on USA now and it's ratings being way up post brand split

 

[Breh Obama]

WWE is probably the only reason USA still exists.

I highly doubt millions of people tune in to watch Chrisley Knows Best

 

[Playaz Eyez]

The WWE is practically keeping the USA Network alive
