How does this even work? 300k people turn on Raw and somehow learn the matches and then just tune out until exactly when the Hardyz showed up? WWE doesn't really tell you the card. You have a hint at a few matches, but that's it.

It's all ultimately going to be twisted by people depending on who they personally like. Appearing 112 times a fucking year and still gaining viewers is a miracle, although at the time HHH was still a smark favorite as he was the 'workhorse who doesn't get appreciated as much as Austin and Rock'.
Vince was obviously great but you also have to factor in he almost exclusively appeara with the biggest stars in the biggest angles with the biggest stunts and gimmicks involved.

If you book someone at the top of the card with the big names every week and have them look strong it will result in them doing good numbers by proxy. Their drawing power doesn't actually get revealed until those guys are gone

He also got cucked by Orton twice, first one after Rated RKO disbanded and the second one after he took his place as Cena's biggest rival. I'm sorry but Mr. COPEland can only draw when working with the goats, kinda like savage. Sad!

Yeah, that was part of my point. The list doesn't really have context besides how exposed they were.
>>12492327
Yeah, people will probably tune in to see you stick someone's face in your ass, get beat up in a hospital, get soaked by beer, get a toilet dumped on you (can't remember if this was Vince), etc.
Reminder that during the Rock Cena feud both were gaining over a million viewers for their promo segments then Big Show did more than any Rock appearance when he cried over getting fired. Iirc it gained over 1.5 million viewers.

to be fair Orton isn't exactly new to being cucked out of a spot, there's not a wrestler in history who had his push/momentum stopped as many times by a single wrestler as Triple H has done to him. But he's recovered quite well and is probably the most over wrestler in the world right now.

Jericel replying to his own thread again. You are the only person who posts these random segment ratings from 20 years ago, your posting style is incredibly obvious, and you've been doing it for like 2 years. And every one of these threads ends up with you seething about Triple H and claiming Jericho was a mega draw (while replying to yourself 40 times)
