Yesterday was the lowest ratings in raw HISTORY

Google Trends show WWE interest has not declined like WWE’s TV ratings have.

Google Trends data are consistent with increases and decreases in business for companies similar to WWE.

Live attendance is stable. Attendance is weakening in Q2, but it may recover when John Cena returns to touring.

WWE merchandise revenue is up, largely thanks to increases in revenue from the WWEShop segment.

Still, TV ratings are an important issue for the company as it faces renegotiating its TV rights contracts in a few years.

WWE's (NYSE:WWE) falling television ratings suggest the company's popularity is also declining, but Google Trends, house show attendance and merchandise revenue show otherwise.

Now YOU ALL just need to stop watching.

Then what would they have left?

Lol i saw the low numbers for the raw thread and was like wtf?

TSC makes the WWE Universe go round. The beards saw that we checked out so now everyone is following suit

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Holy shyt, me neither

Wasn't that the show that had Brock's last good performance in a very good Fatal 4 Way for his belt?

Was SummerSlam when Brock legit busted open Orton? and everyone was like and the show ended?

I would say an overall decline with a few peaks, 2013 and 2016 for instance were pretty good year, especially 2013 but it seems like the bottom has fell out in 2018 and it may be as bad as it has been in 23 years.

Was 2013 when The Shield and Wyatts were feuding and Bryan was putting on lengthy matches every week? That was dope. I really thought with Shield and Wyatts that WWE had something and a new boom period was upon us.

They fukked it up.

Yeah, but that was 2 years ago

It was the only time I was anticipating an Orton match in almost a decade just because I wanted to see an F-5/RKO reversal and dude gets destroyed worse than Cena in 2014

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Yeah, but that was 2 years ago

Damn.

The "yet you still watch" argument doesn't hold any water when viewership has been on a slow decline for so long

 

[jackswstd]

WWF catered to the marks, casual viewers like myself keep watching,but pretend I don't because as much as I claim to be above watching "playfighting" I'm an attention whore obsessed with talking about "playfighting, simple as that. Without my "I don't watch" gimmick, I would be even more of an insufferable human being.

'Really? The show had the worst ratings ever? Well, my next show will do better.'

 

[Amor fati]

Good this great, but I doubt the company(Vince) will respond to this.

 

[Amor fati]

UFC is much worse off than WWE though. An aggressively racist fanbase but the top fighters are black, Russian or a roided to the gills Brazilian woman. Being real has drawbacks

That's a shot at that Cyborg dude?
