10. Will Cena's Absence Cause Raw Ratings To Decline Further?
Asked by @_WhatsTheMata_ Yes. Cena is the main attraction and history shows that viewership is higher when he's in the key segments. That's why he's so often booked in the opening and closing of Raw. However, what's also going to be a key factor, is upcoming sports games. They'll be just as damaging as Cena's absence. They've certainly proved to be a big culprit for loss of Raw viewership so far in this autumn season. The extent of the damage with no-Cena is going to be interesting. Ratings are already so bad, that they can't much more worse. There'll be further declines, but it isn't like a million people are going to go missing. Cena is popular, but WWE are hoping to keep the decline as low as possible. Improved creative and some key returns (possibly The Rock and The Undertaker) are going to hopefully minimise damage.
