"I think John Cena's been watching some of my old matches, picking some stuff up...."
This has been an incredible twenty minutes.

JBL: These guys remind me alot of me and Ron.
Cole: What?
Byron Saxton: I want to hear this....
JBL: Maybe not.
Best ten seconds of commentary in the last twelve years.

This is cracking me up. If we're gonna get the 20 minute deal to start the show, it may as well be absurd. Woodridge Ryan must be pissed. |

I seriously don't even know what order to rank these guys in terms of the greatest things going in wrestling:
Seth Rollins
Kevin Owens
Dalton Castle
Nakamura
EC3

I still think Mark Henry would make an awesome manager.

I hate the Feed Me More chant. He goes to it way too much. Well shit, that's all he goes to. I don't dig Ryback at all.

I wonder when Cody is coming back. I think a return and a huge push would be a good feel-good story right about now. I can only take so much Big Show, Henry, Ryback, Miz matches.

Cena needs to stop doing the springboard stunner. The most he got of Cesaro on that move was maybe his nose. |

As much as I wanted to see Cesaro & Neville team up, maybe it's best that Cesaro stays in singles action. I love this guy!

If they're gonna do this "Anyone but you" obsession by Bray, why couldn't they have expanded that to a yearlong obsession because Taker beat him. Dummies.

And by the way, if I'm a 10 year old kid, who was I supposed to be cheering for in the confrontation with Zig/Lana vs Rusev/Rae? Ziggler and Lana were coming off as the heels way more than the other way around.

These pairings are completely stupid, no doubt. However, if it results in two leggy blondes rolling around on top of each other, I'm perfectly fine with that!

During John Cena's open challenge match against Cesaro on Monday's episode of RAW, the screen went black at one point when Cesaro was delivering a series of uppercuts to the United States champion. The reason for this is because Cesaro actually double middle fingered Cena, which you can see in the unedited footage below:

– It wasn’t a good night for Raw last night, as viewership hit a near-record low and the 18 – 49 rating fell as well. The episode averaged 3.463 million viewers and a 1.11 demo rating, down 6% and 8% from last week’s 3.671 million and 1.21 demo rating. The viewership is the second-lowest rating for a non-holiday episode, ahead of only the December 3rd, 2012 episode. Meanwhile, the demo was the lowest since the May 4th episode drew a 1.1.
The show ranked third among cable shows for the night, behind Love & Hip-Hop Atlanta (2.966 million, 1.56 demo rating) and Discovery Channel’s Street Outlaws (2.676 million, 1.14 demo rating). The hourly numbers are below:
8 PM: 3.362 million (1.08 demo rating)
9 PM: 3.544 million (1.14 demo rating)
10 PM: 3.482 million (1.10 demo rating)

Catastrophic ratings is the only thing that may hasten a move back to 2 hours.

I've actually liked portions of the show lately.
WWE RAW DRAWS SECOND-LOWEST NON HOLIDAY VIEWERSHIP SINCE 1997
Posted by Joe Lucia on Jul 1, 2015 11:45
WWE Raw has been a staple on Monday nights for the last 22 (yes, 22!) years. But this past Monday’s edition of Raw sunk to depth that WWE hasn’t seen in years. The show drew only 3.46 million viewers, the second-lowest viewership for a non-holiday edition of Raw since 1997. The only lower episode went up against a Giants-Redskins game in December of 2012, which drew over 16 million viewers for RGIII’s MNF debut.
Furthermore, as noted by the Wrestling Observer, there weren’t even any major sports games going head to head with Raw. Monday Night Baseball drew 669,000 viewers on ESPN for Rangers-Orioles. Nothing on broadcast TV, highlighted by a trio of reality shows, drew more than 7 million viewers on Monday night. Raw didn’t even win the 18-49 demo on cable, falling behind Love & Hip Hop Atlanta and holding even with Street Outlaws, the Love & Hip Hop post-show, and an 11:30 Family Guy rerun on Adult Swim.
While this low point is probably just a blip on the radar, especially considering that Raw had its most-viewed episode in three years back in April, I think pro wrestling is one of those few live events that’s adversely affected by DVR viewing. Fans aren’t just skipping the commercials – they’re skipping segments with characters they don’t like. Don’t want to watch a rambling 15 minute promo to start the show every week? DVR the show and just skip that promo. Don’t care about recap segments from something you just watched? Go ahead and click that fast forward button.
You could probably cut that three hour Raw down to under one hour if you skip all the filler by watching on DVR, and that’s something networks were probably well-aware of when they balked at giving WWE the mammoth new TV contract they sought last spring.
