So it appears MyNetwork is going from what many considered a sinking network to a rising network and with the addition of Smackdown in the fall, which has been the highest rated show on The CW since rerun season started and one of the highest during the regular season, it will mean a huge plus for MyNetwork. WWE also got a much better money deal signing with MyNetwork as well.

Interesting. I don't see the ratings being affected as much, but at the same point, is The CW Network more well known than MyNetworkTV or not?
