Lesnar and HHH should not be blamed for the shitty rating. WWE did all they could to make the "main event" as awful as possible. First they had that stupid 'peaceful' contract signing which was a complete waste of time, then they went to commercial and there was about 50 recaps before the parking lot segment then commercials again then recap of what just happened and finally the arm-break in the ring. It was a complete clusterfuck and split up in such a way, you can't even call it "taking up 30 minutes".

2.8, and it will almost certainly drop. I'm a diehard, and it felt like I was watching for 10 hours. That's what happens when a show is poorly booked.

2.8 going into the 2nd biggest show of the year

i hope it keeps dropping, maybe vince is wake up, hopefully the mid carders walk out or something, this company sucks right now

im debating even if i should dvr it, i watched about 15 min of real time this morning on my dvr from raw last night, took me about 25 min to get through the whole thing, only watched 2 small parts in real time

Good, the show is very poor and deserves it.

the only really great segment i saw on raw this whole summer, hell since extreme rules was the dx 1000 raw reunion

no joke, a bunch of guys from 15 years ago with some beer bellys entertained me more than any of the current product had combined the last 4 months, this is not a joke

I definitely agree Lesnar and HHH shouldn't be blamed for the shitty rating. While the feud might be horrible, Lesnar, HHH, and HBK as well are draws and there's no way their segments didn't do well unless the feud really is THAT bad to the casual fans.

The third hour not only had half an hour of that, but also had the tag team match between Cena/Punk/Show/Bryan, and I'm sure that helped picked the 3rd hour up a bit.

You need to be enlightened by the man in my avatar.

um no, the current product stinks, the only single segmant i truly enjoyed and made me watch again was the dx reunion, from extreme rules-summerslam

People listing off a bunch of names need to give it a rest. Maybe the shitty rating is the fact that no one wants to sit through a three hour show where a large chunk of it involves Tout, twitter a long recap videos.

Thank god I PVR Raw since after watching Raw 1001 live, I can't stand all that bullshit and I doubt anyone else can. I expect largely the same ratings, and even the number dropping, by the time the NFL regular season begins.
