Yeah, because that pipe bomb right before his contract expiring and breathing life back into wrestling didn't have shyt to do with it.
:comeon:

Yeah I don't get that at all. Sure Punk was/is an internet darling, but that doesn't mean he has to kowtow to them. Fans are not entitled to be embraced by their favorite in anything.

Wrestlers who use Meltzer, Keller, etc. do it for their own selfish reasons 99% of the time, so it's refreshing to see someone take a different tack. It's one thing Punk has in common with Matt Hardy. The only difference is that Punk's not a down-low informant.

Oh so you look at numbers and then you say Punk drives away and loses viewers every week, which is not what the numbers say. :beli:

:mindblown: His overruns are the worst ever. How can that be assessed as anything other than driving viewers away? Less people are tuning in for the overrun than ever before and that is supposed to be the segment that keeps viewers throughout the show and also will set up the following week..

Well now you've already changed your initial statement of "Punk's segments lose viewers every week", which is of course preposterous, to "he has weak overruns." So this debate's already over, you don't even agree with yourself.

To further clarify, what you REALLY mean to say is "Last week's overrun number was low and Meltzer made a big deal out of it so now I'm gonna further push this idea that Punk is somehow toxic to ratings even though he regularly provides the higher-rated segments of shows whose ratings overall are down, which is indicative of the continued problems with the company as a whole."

Again, the low number was + 400k or whatever it was. He's not LOSING viewers regularly like you claimed. Like so many TSC favorites actually do. The overrun and third hour as a whole have been weak since they went to 3 hours. Reasons being its too long and more often than not, NOTHING INTERSTING HAPPENS to make people want to watch. People tune in to see interesting things happen. If week after week, the overrun climaxes with a staredown, a non-confrontation, shouting at a referee, no one is gonna care who's involved.

The rare weeks when something interesting does happen at the end- shocker- more people watch and the overrun gets a good number. Btw pretty much all of those recent high overruns have also starred Punk but lets give everyone else credit for the good stuff so we have a nice, clean narrative.
