That picture is so fitting.

Please, someone, I beg of you, superimpose a 'Forever Alone' meme face over Cena's head.

Re: **The Official Raw Ratings Thread** (Discuss Ratings In Here)
Oh and to the shmuck saying Taker isn't as big a draw as Cena or that Rock has always been the bigger draw and star...have you, like, ever watched a fucking wrestling show in your life? Rock was fantastically popular, of that there is no doubt, but back from late 1997 until the end of 1999, you could not, repeat, could not TOUCH Steve Austin. Its preposterous to even think that anyone during that period could eclipse him, because they just didn't. The Attitude Era is by in large the most profitable period the WWF has ever had, and Steve Austin was the living embodiment of everything that Attitude was.
As for Taker, the guy was a star for 12 years before John Cena even debuted as a rookie in the Fed. He's one of the most recognizable characters in pro wrestling history and one of the few that could take a gimmick and make it work for this long. He's had so many classic matches that its hard to keep count. The thing about Taker is that he was a dominant presence through numerous different eras. He was one of many extremely strong characters. Nowadays, the only reason Cena stands out is because what else is there around him, besides a handful of guys? I will guaran-fucking-tee you that were this 1998, Cena would be at BEST challenging for the European title against the likes of D'Lo Brown and X-Pac (who would still get way more of a pop than he would) and nowhere near the IC, let alone main event, picture. He can get the fuck out of here with his 10 meaningless title reigns of today, where he has TWO heavyweight championships he can win.
To say Undertaker isn't as big a draw as Cena or that Rock has always been a bigger draw than Stone Cold clearly indicates that you're highly delusional, in extreme denial, a troll, or mentally retarded. In whichever of these 4 cases that might apply, my response will always be the same-please fuck off and leave.

Re: **The Official Raw Ratings Thread** (Discuss Ratings In Here)
Quarter 4 is always a poor draw, especially since they jam a lot of ads and commercials into it. Same as this week, Cena´s promo didnt even take up 1/3 of that quarter.
And obviously Undertaker is a bigger draw then Cena, mostly due to the fact that he isnt around as much. You usually know its something special when he shows up.
But if he was there every single week he would draw the same as the rest. Same with The Rock.

Rock’s first interview plus Alicia Fox vs. Eve Torres gained 338,000 viewers. That’s probably a ton for Rock and losing for the match.

Bullshit reporting. Its obviously because of Eva Torres. 225,000 viewers gained last week and now this. Rock should be lucky to share a quarter with a draw like that.
Just look what happend to the other history lessons when he didnt have Eve to back him up

Re: **The Official Raw Ratings Thread** (Discuss Ratings In Here)
I voted the wrestlers draw, but it's a bit of both. The brand didn't do shit back in the early 90s, the stars who were left kept the company alive. Not saying the brand doesn't draw, but let's face it, saying the wrestlers don't draw is just stupid. You're basically saying the Attitude Era could have been huge without Stone Cold and Rock, and that clearly isn't true at all.
Reading through the pages, I noticed some of the same posters who hate Cena for his "bad matches" and corny promos also hate Punk for his "bum look" and shoot promos. Seems there is no pleasing some of you, kinda wonder why you even watch in the first place.

Big part of money this group raises gives back to staff and top executives, so show some respect for job creators and don't dump this crap on us.
