Guest El Psycho Diablo Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 WWE RAW scored a 3.8 rating this week with a 5.7 share, off hours of 3.3 and 4.1. That rating is up from last week's 3.4 and is a very good sign going into Backlash this Sunday. The 4.1 for hour two is also one of RAW's stronger hours in recent weeks, with the Rock Concert II segment doing a 4.7. The strong 4.7 rating for the segment seems to show growing interest in the Rock/Goldberg feud, which is what WWE is counting on to sell Backlash. ~*~ heh, heh, heh.
Guest Downhome Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Well I just went to 1wrestling and it's true, and I'm simply in awe. Not even I expected such a rating, not at all. I mean, a fucking 4.7 for Rock/Goldberg/Gillberg?
Guest ViciousFish Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 I enjoyed Raw even though I watched hour 2 then hour 1 'cause I got a little involved playing some PS2. I can believe the rating too bad Rock is leaving after Backlash which will really set them back.
Yuna_Firerose Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 A 3.8?!?!?!?! For the piece of shit that was Raw last night?!?!?!! :o
Guest AndrewTS Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 And we have the first ratings bump for Goldie. Two? Do I hear two? That might be all it gets.
Guest Downhome Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Back to reality for a moment, even though the number jumped up to a 3.8, it still doesn't say too much to me. Sure, Rocky/Goldberg pulled that great ass 4.7, but the rest of the show, just ugh. Untill it goes under 3.0 or over 4.0, as a whole, I will not really think anything is changing at all. So, do people remember Goldberg, or not? Isn't that the highest rating segment in weeks now?
Guest AndrewTS Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 A 3.8?!?!?!?! For the piece of shit that was Raw last night?!?!?!! :o Gillberg = ratings.
Guest El Satanico Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Well if the rest of the show sucked like you guys say, this ratings "jump" won't mean anything as those that tuned in will say "the show still sucked" and will tune back out.
Guest Downhome Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 A 3.8?!?!?!?! For the piece of shit that was Raw last night?!?!?!! :o Gillberg = ratings. Amen, we need more of this guy.
Guest Kotzenjunge Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 (misses the days when 4.7 was the rating the entire show would get)
Guest AndrewTS Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 A 3.8?!?!?!?! For the piece of shit that was Raw last night?!?!?!! :o Gillberg = ratings. Amen, we need more of this guy. Heheh...indeed. I marked out more for Gillberg than I ever did Goldberg. Well if the rest of the show sucked like you guys say, this ratings "jump" won't mean anything as those that tuned in will say "the show still sucked" and will tune back out. Which is why the ratings bumps never last: Raw almost always sucks, especially these days.
JasonX Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Well if the rest of the show sucked like you guys say, this ratings "jump" won't mean anything as those that tuned in will say "the show still sucked" and will tune back out. Especially given the ending. After all, there was a real sliver of hope that Booker T would win the belt. But they BUTT-fucked us yet again and I doubt that the ratings will go up for the show again any time soon...
Guest edge-o-matic Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 A 3.8?!?!?!?! For the piece of shit that was Raw last night?!?!?!! :o Gillberg = ratings. Nah, stalling car = ratings
Guest AndrewTS Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Call me crazy, but I don't think the Clique love-fests (including HHH pulling down HBK's pants) are drawing. Nash, either.
Guest notJames Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Let's see how well Goldberg does when he isn't playing opposite the Rock. BTW, I wonder how the Clique will spin this one in their favour…
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 If you ask HHH: "Uhhh Dad I mean Vince, me, Shawn and Kev drew the rating. People...uhhh...tuned in for rock/Goldberg cause they couldn't wiat to see us"
Guest Mad Dog Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Well it appears people just tune in for Rock/Goldberg stuff and just turn off the rest of the show. Post-Backlash will probably be down considering how horrible of a show it was.
Guest Choken One Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Vince: Looks at Ratings Sheet... Jr: Good Night Boss? Vince: It looks like our Investment paid off in the end J.R... :::Door Shoots Open::: :::Big Sexy, Game and HBK all stroll in...Wearing Matching Pink Tanks::: :::Nash softly brushes his hair::: :::HHH kisses Stephanie on her way out::: :::HBK Kisses his Pocket Bible::: Vince: What Can I do for you Boys? I got more Shovels for the Darky... Nash: (deep laugh) Don't worry about that Vince, we did the "Job" well last night. HBK: "JOB"...Good One Kev... HHH: Whatcha got there Dad? I mean Mr. McMahon. Vince: Just the ratings...Looks like Goldberg PAID off in the end AFTERALL! Kevin: Really... HBK: Heh...Wow. HHH: (Glazes over) But Vince, Clearly you have to Thank US for those ratings... Vince: Why is That Hunter? HHH: Well...We hyped the hell out of Myself and that other guy...Was it Jericho? HBK: No..not him..the dark one... Kevin: Booka Dee? HHH: YEAH! That's the one and besides i think it was clear people were captivated by Big Sexy's return last week and tuned in around 10 hoping for The ULTIMATE SHOWDOWN with myself and Kev but after seeing it was only Billy Boy...Goldberg drove away the fans... HBK: Oh, Yeah...Drove them away... Kevin: See? 4.7? It could've been 5.7 if Goldberg had NOT drove them away... Ross: OMG and if only John Wayne himself, Stone COLD! Mah Gawd were there... Vince: SON OF A BITCH...HHH you're right...The ratings would've been MONSTEROUS if it weren't for that damned Goldberg... HHH: So what are you gonna do? Vince: What you want... HBK: Well, How about umm...Like let the Darky lay down for Hunter instead of me or Kev because then that would just kill our cred. Vince: You got it BOYS!
Guest Youth N Asia Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 (edited) Shit...I have to edit mine off. Choken's was good. Edited April 22, 2003 by Youth N Asia
Guest notJames Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Too bad those self-same viewers decided to throw their TVs out the window by the time the Clique hit the last quarter hour.
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Next week: Goldberg Concert 1.
Guest Youth N Asia Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 Next week: Goldberg Concert 1. dradle-dradle-dradle I made you out of clay And when it's dry and ready, with dradle I will play I'm so sorry...that just came right to my head...couldn't pass it up.
Guest Lightning Flik Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 3.8? Ok, I can see the Rock Concert 2 getting the 4.7, but I didn't think it would. Still, it managed a 3.8?
Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 I admit, Rock/Goldberg entertained me. Hurricane/Jericho was a damn good TV match. It looks like DH has been vindicated
Guest Downhome Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 I admit, Rock/Goldberg entertained me. Hurricane/Jericho was a damn good TV match. It looks like DH has been vindicated Steiner is also improving, you can't deny that. I mean, he isn't great or even what he once was, but he IS improving. At least he can move about the ring more so now than he could when he first debuted, heh. He really should have went to OVW for a month or two, it would have helped a lot.
Guest RedJed Posted April 22, 2003 Report Posted April 22, 2003 My whole philosophy of Rock and Goldberg drawing casual interest when they are TOGETHER in segments is pretty correct so far (they can draw in that way). But put them in different situations and they both draw very little. Just shows how the casuals are still a tad interested in this "dream match" but not particuarly for each individual character........thats the best reasoning I can think of with this. The buyrate for Backlash will sure be interesting, thats for sure.

I'll reserve judgement till I see his next PPV feud. Nowinski's SO over right now that any face he's taking on looks like a million bucks. Nowinski should feud with Hurricane; who's with me?
