>because it should mean nothing to fansThis really isn't true. It's ultimately fine if you don't care, but if you do actually care about something you're enjoying doing well, or something you dislike doing poorly, then things like ratings absolutely matter and are worth discussing.
NXT is actually the best example because it's actually fine if it does dogshit ratings in terms of still existing, because WWE will run their developmental at a loss. They've proven this in the past, and any money they've made off of it is a bonus. However, I've been loving NXT and I'm happy to see it growing in ratings and getting better deals. I want more people to see the show and why it's so good, and then being able to discuss it with my fellow NXT marks.
I feel like this line, in this context, is just a serious cope.
