John Cena vs. Big Show gained 11,000 viewers in the main event, doing a 2.52 quarter rating. This would be among the lowest drawing main events in the last 15 years.

Cena and Big Show are such huge draws, guys.

How long was the Cena/show match actually? How much of it was part of overrun?

It seems Cena's drawing abilities are no longer what it used to be.

These numbers show two important things. Firstly Punk isn't that popular seeing as his segment was lower then the opening one and the one directly after his. Plus he was not in the overun /ending which again shows you could have anyone in that slot and they would gain viewers.

And secondly Cena is losing his star power.

Tbh Cena and Punk both have a lot in common. Their characters are stale and boring and they have been forced down peoples throats for years. They are on TV more then anyone else.

If these numbers don't show Vince things need to change then none will.

Yeah, they hurt him by not having him change and evolve his character.

I call bullshit on The Shield interview losing 350k viewers. It's a 1 minute long video for fucks sake, how can one minute of a quarter be used to judge it's success?

So once again, Punk gains significantly, in spite of being injured and in spite of not being placed in the magic overrun spot where allegedly anyone will gain even if it's Ryder against Santino in a staring contest for the vacant Diva's championship.

Meanwhile, Cena bombs in the main event.

What more can be said? It's not Punk. It's not Cena. It's the company.

HOLY FUCK @ 11,000 viewers.
