Looking at this pic, real interesting stuff. There's at least 6 states that have never even gotten an episode of Raw! Anyone know the reasons? Are the cities there just not big enough or what?

For Canada, looking at that chart, looks like at least 3 years in Raws history, they've never visited Ontario(2 of those years have been the past 2 years,2011 and 2012)

They really need to host most events outside of USA. Look at all this, a combined 60 Raws(of 1000) have been outside USA. Thats an average of one every 4 or so months.


Over 60 battle royals in Raws history, and just under 80 triple threat matches.

Real surprised to see Undertaker with only that many matches. Considering he was there from Raw#1,and he didn't even go to Smackdown until like 2002(so about 10 years being on Raw), can't believe that's all the matches he's competed on. Some real surprising names on that list, Test,Bubba,X-Pac,Billy Gunn and others have competed in over 160 matches on Raw

 

[Romanista]

because they're Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, North/South Dakota and New Mexico.

 

[TheShikari]

The Miz has had more matches on Raw than Taker... wow

 

[Honey Bucket]

Wow never knew Bubba Ray Dudley had so many matches.

 

[Starbuck]

DAT RITE DERE IS WHY HHH IS RAW AND TAKER IS SD DURR

They call themself a wide world comapny but have only had 60 raws outside of the usa thats not a good number, its going to be a pain filming a show outside the usa but i would still like to see them do more.

The only hard part about filming episodes outside of USA is taking the stages and stuff with them. Everyone else who is in USA events go to international events when WWE has live events all over.

Don't get why they don't just take their cameras and stuff with them when going to International events. Why not just settle for a different stage setup when going somewhere in UK. So then it'll really feel like an international event.

Look at what WWE does...they travel to a place, have a live event house show, then a few months later, return almost exactly to the same place, and hold a tv event...If they're gonna do that, why couldn't they have held the tv event there the first time?

They really do need international ppvs. PPV in May and October should be international ones. Rotate every year, so one year we could have PPVs in Canada and England, another year it could be Italy and Japan and stuff like that.

it's not just the stage and lights thats holding them back from doing it, its the big time differnts there is, its 7 hours in the uk and even more in other places (not 100% sure where it is everywhere else) thats why there never going to hold a ppv outside the usa. and its a real shame its not like their only fans are in the usa, they have fans world wide who want to see them live.

A question I'd like to have answered was how many of those title matches actually resulted in a new title holder?

 

[N-Zone]

Interesting that the tag team championships are the most defended belts considering how little attention they've had in the past few years. Surprised they haven't had a single Raw in New Mexico or Idaho either.

 

[dxbender]

A question I'd like to have answered was how many of those title matches actually resulted in a new title holder?

13/52 WWE title matches resulted in new champs(25% chance)
41/65 IC title matches resulted in new champs(63% chance)
2/18 WHC matches resulted in new champs(11% chance. Jericho is only star to win the title in a actual match. HHH was awarded the WHC on Raw, and Punk cashed in MITBB)
11/28 US title matches resulted in new champs(39% chance)


So by those stats, 67/163 singles (male) title matches result in new champs(41% chance). That average comes out to a title match every 4 months on Raw.

Don't know how tag titles were counted, since we had undisputed tag titles, world tag titles, wwe tag titles.

 

[Bl0ndie]

Interesting to see the "how many matches" stat. I can see Kane becoming number one soon... considering Triple H is done and Jericho could be going off with fozzy again.

The cities that didn't get a Live RAW are Idaho, North/South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana and New Mexico. The first 5 states population are to low ( Tampa's metro alone has more people than those 5 states have). As for New Mexico its population is greater than Delware but WWE has held 5 RAWs in Delaware so far, so I'm going to assume that New Mexico isn't so big on Wrestling.

Undertaker small matches on RAW is understandable since Undertaker very so often had matches on RAW eventhough he was on the very 1st RAW. Most of Undertaker's appearances on RAW were in a non wrestling form, either he was cutting a promo or interfering in a match, but as far as actually wrestling on RAW, than 159 total sounds about right. I'm pretty sure his appearances on RAW will be much higher than his match numbers on the show.

The same goes for Austin too, who didn't even make the list, most of his appearances are in non-wrestling form as well.

So why didn't people in attitude era really complain much about that then? The star of the attitude era, didn't even compete regularly.

And if he did...what would peoples reaction be? Might it have been similar to Cenas, where people got tired of seeing him compete almost every week, and winning 99% of those matches too?

 

[Rock316AE]

If I remember correctly, there was a Taker/Kane Inferno match in 99.

But that happened once. Listing all the match types that only happened once, would make no sense. Cause there's alot of one time matches we've seen on Raw.

I was thinking the exact same thing

 

[SUPER HANS]

The Moz has gotten through a fair few matches.

 

[N-destroy]

Surprised to see Miz made that list.

 

[James1o1o]

1000 episodes of raw, and only 2 Ironman matches.
