How is Punk supposed to single-handedly get Attitude era ratings?
The product has been stale as fukk for YEARS.
The man undeniably has superstar presence and charisma, but how was he supposed to get to Austin or Rock or even Bret Hart level? Feuding against Jack Swagger or something?
Of course Rocky gets followers... all the kids think he's cool and he's got thousands of fans from the previous era where more people actually gave a fukk about wrestling cause it wasn't this stale PG bullshyt. That's just common sense.
I think it's dishonest to blame the low ratings and low drawing power of the company on Punk, when the company has botched everything for years.
When they had a chance to build up Punk or even Ryder, they just doubled up on Cena and made Punk into yet another cowardly douche.
