Gotta love Punk marks Mathematical revisionism....

The segment between CM Punk and Chris Jericho at 10pm gained 379,000 viewers for a 3.19 quarter rating. Punk vs. Mark Henry and the post-match angle with Chris Jericho giving a beer bath to Punk as well as the Alberto Del Rio vs. Zack Ryder lost 169,000 viewers. The segment with The Three Stooges lost 240,000 viewers and was the low point of the show at a 2.90 quarter rating.

The backstage interview with Brock Lesnar gained 423,000 viewers. The main event with John Cena vs. David Otunga and the Lesnar run-in gained 301,000 viewers. This is considered a weak overrun rating at a 3.42

That means that Lesnar had 14,000 more viewers than them. Go relearn your math..........

Gillberg? The fuck outta here. We all know it was the Brooklyn Brawler who also beat HHH on an episode of SD in 2000 due to interference from Jericho and completely infuriated me as a child lol.

That gif was meant for that comeback

Meltzer posted a huge rant on how HHH was a bigger draw than Bret that I posted here a long time ago.

People may hate the dude, may be a piece of shit.etc
But the guy drew

Biggest example was the Anhemime house show that sold out, huge traffic block with people having to get to the arena and was mainevented by HHH vs Rikishi or some crap like that. No austin/Rock advertised

Lesnar drew big on a random segment. People only wanted to see him. The rest is just ridiculous booking, especially when you can promote Brock's promo and do a huge gain with the overrun.
