Do tv ratings even include DVR stuff? And I'm sure many people who can't watch it live(since it airs in middle of the night over there), probably just watch it online or something.



Speaking of other country tv ratings. I wonder what WWE ratings for Canada are. I think it was something like 400,000 people?(which is equivalent to 4M in USA). The show DOESN'T air live in Canada so would be interesting to see what the ratings are like for LIVE show(not even the people from the network who watch WWE, watch the Canadian feed of the show since it's not live,so proves how much that network cares about the viewers)

I think they do, but it doesn't take away from the fact that most people in the UK watch it via illegal streaming.

Were segment breakdowns released yet for this week?

Maybe it does count in UK, but I know other places like USA, don't include DVR ratings. They don't release DVR ratings until the "season" is over.

I remember seeing TV ratings for all tv shows(once you factored in DVRs) in 2012 and some shows got several million extra viewers from DVR ratings. An average show(on national tv) that gets similar viewers as WWE, had about 2-3M extra viewers thanks to DVR. So really makes me think that in USA at least, WWE does have a few million people who DVR Raw.

Call me when the present becomes good. Until then, off to 1998 I go.

That is not even a little bit correct.

DVR watches are all added in within seven days of the original broadcast, to whoever asked the original question.

lol your wrong buddy, another example of people posting so called "facts" that are lies, internet is full of this crap

they have the dvr numbers within seven days, maybe sooner, if you read up on this stuff you will know this, on raw usually about 10-15% watch on dvr, not that big of a number, so there's a little bump, not much though, most watch raw live despite what some think, look at the real websites and real numbers

Are we ever going to get the breakdown from last week?

Once the Rock and Lesnar leave after WM, this show is gonna drive the car off a cliff. 3 Hours of VM Punk and Super Cena all year. In the words of Scott Hudson... Good NIGHT!

Yeah, because Lesnar brought soooo much to the company, during his initial run. He couldn't even significantly boost ratings when he was on the show.
