>Actually with casual fans their ebbs and flo's are exactly from booking and who gets pushed. It's the hardcore fans who complain but continue to watch where it doesn't show up in numbers.

Dave is actually somewhat right. If a storyline isn't consistently entertaining and the guy involved getting a push looks like a jobber or a bitch, then the average casual is tuning out. Simple as.

Yeah he's right. Which is why Vince pushes people with normie appeal like Brock, Roman, Cena instead of indy shitters that only appeal to hardcore smarks like Sami, Owens, Cody and LA Knight. Hardcore smarks are gonna give him their money regardless so he may aswell target normie money

And this is why wasting Cody's momentum to drag out "The Story" is going to backfire hard on them.

"Cody's momentum" is only among smarks who are hardcore enough to know what AEW is or have been watching WWE long enough to remember who Cody is - either way these people will continue watching wwe and giving Vince money no matter what
Normies (who's viewership and spending actually shifts depending on booking) see Cody for the lispy manlet retard that he is. They can detect the fact he isn't a normie much in the same way they can detect that you are a loser whenever you leave your basement. They aint buying Cody merch and they probably wont even watch if he was champion. They want someone who actually looks like they could kick their ass in a fight not a manlet nerd with bleached hair

I hope he at least cuts this trash off. I get that Charlotte and Rhea had a good match, but it's the only truly good women's match in WWE history and there were 3 more shitty women's matches at Mania, so please quit pushing this garbage.
It's clearly a huge factor in the drop in viewers.

Its true though. Go to the nearest bar near you and ask the most normie looking people who Cody Rhodes is. They'll probably say
>isnt he that shit wrestler from 10 years ago who wore a mask because he broke his nose and was embarrassed about it?

Naw, Cody has name recognition from being Dusty's son, which is why it was a smart move to work that into the storyline. They messed up by not putting the belt on him at WM and continuing with Roman, who literally nobody knows even though he's been champ for like 5 years.

Because of streaming deals, TV deals, and the Saudi deal. Ratings are at all-time lows, meaning that less people are watching than ever before.

Oh wait? The currency used in the USA is the dollar, and not viewing figures? So the fact he's earning record profits is the most important thing? Oh right

WWE is having their highest grossing shows ever, all of which are headlined by Roman. The reason why WWE's TV views are lower is the reason why all sports TV views are lower, increasingly people are moving away from cable to streaming. And guess what, tranny? WWE is also netting in record views and profit from that medium.

smarks literally work themselves into a shoot over who has belts, who beat who, and how strong someone looked which is shit that 7 year olds argue about on playgrounds.
Casuals pick a guy they like and watch until they get bored or he's not there
smarks are the actual fucking marks
