Does anyone know the ratings for Raw? Ever since being on the net (1998) I can't remember the ratings taking this long to come out.

[Guest]

Yeah, no one has reported them yet.

 

Don't these bastards know, RVD & Eddie's careers both hangs in the balance?

[Guest Dangerous A]

I will be getting the new observer tommorrow and it's supposed to have the numbers on which wrestlers gain or lose viewers since the split. I will try to post those numbers tommorrow or first thing saturday. I know those numbers aren't the most accurate thing, but trust me, WWE puts a lot of stock in those numbers and they are important because they are a potential gauge into the future of who is or isn't gonna get a push. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

The unfair part of the ratings is that the ratings for mondays RAW are not as important as the ratings for next mondays show, if it shows an increase then that would show a word of mouth and showing that people like what they are seeing, coming off a lackluster show the first night isnt going to show an accurate indication of the affect of guys like eddy and RVD. Unfortunatly the WWF tends to get scared off my a low number of that weeks show, when most times if they have big show the ratings show up the next week, and if what people are hoping isnt there you can have a shit show with a good rating and a good show the next week and a shit rating. It so unfair and often times the wrong guys get the credit.

 

This does seem to be and extended delay for ratings, even though monday was a holliday, i would think they would be up this morning at some point.

Steve Austin + 334,600

Booker T    -8,500

Bradshaw  +148,300

Bubba Ray Dudley -7,400

Spike +7,200

Flair +324,800

Goldust - 187,300

Eddy +2,100

Hall +198,600]

Jeff Hardy -180,000

Matt Hardy - 148,900

Heyman +5,500

Hogan +7000

Jackie +4,200

Jazz - 117,000

Lesnar + 10,000

Molly +10,400

Nash +4,200

Regal +900

Steven Richards - 126,800

Big Show +5,100

Stasiak -5,100

Trish - 67,000

Undertaker + 284,300

X-Pac +132,700

 

A M/E should be around the 250,000 mark. Bradshaw and X-pac are where they are because of their push which affects how many you get. Hogan is the biggest failure there. On Smackdown 1)Jericho is the biggest draw followed by in order 2)HHH,

3)Hogan,

4)Angle,5

)Edge,

6)Vince (who viewers are turning off when he hits on Kiebler) and Tajiri,

7)Kiebler and Hurricane

8)Kidman

 

the ones with the most lowest rated segments are headed by Lance Storm, closely followed by Valbowski

then a tie between HHH, Hogan, AngleOrton, D-Von,Maven, Bob Holly and Edge

then a tie between Billy & Chuck,Albert, Scotty 2 Hotty, Mark Henry and Test

then Christian.

I seem to remember hearing something about them not doing the ratings for last Monday since it was Memorial Day? That could be the reason for no TV rating.

[Guest franchise632]

They still do the ratings regardless of holiday, but there is a delay in getting the numbers out. This is longer then usual but i would  say they should be up in the next couple hours, i would think anyway.

[Guest WWF4Life]

According to Meltzer, Raw got a 3.7 this week.

[Guest Just call me Dan]

I would assume it was around that when you factor in the fact that it was Memorial Day and the last week's show was horrible.  I think it's pretty safe to say that this show sparked interest and next week's Raw's ratings will reflect that.

[Guest MarvinisaLunatic]

I dont care.  I enjoyed RAW.  And I already enjoyed Smackdown, regardless of the ratings it gets as well.  Whether or not the ratings let me enjoy these shows again is another story.
