Guest Y2DAYDAY Report post Posted January 10, 2004 Actually, the season average is about a 3.4 so it is above average for the show. Meltzer said yesterday it was way above average, whatever that means. It is a great number with no Lesnar and Angle wrestling, and no Vince/Steph/Undertaker on the show, especially since Vince is a huge ratings draw and Steph and Undertaker do pretty good in the ratings as well. It means people are accepting the new blood of Smackdown as stars, specifically Eddie, Benoit, Cena, Rey Jr, and to a much lesser extent Bob Holly(but the main event did do a good number but Big Show main events usually do). TV was built around Eddie/Chavo/Angle and it was a success. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mulatto Heat Report post Posted January 10, 2004 Like I said in the other thread started by Goodear, the bumps for the highest rated segments were barely noticeable. IMO, the main event should be THE highest rated segment, not tied with others and only 0.1 from the average. There was an increase in interest in the show as a WHOLE compared to last week; nothing specific was attracting a chunk of people to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
