Well the ropes we're yellow last night in honour of Connor's Cure and pediatric cancer research... Triple H: "To say this year has been a massive success would be an understatement." No, Hunter, it would be a lie. HHH seems to think he's on the set of NXT in Orlando as he boasts about the success of Monday Night RAW... While WWE's developmental - and Trip's baby - has gone from strength-to-strength this year, we've all read the same stories about how RAW's ratings are plummeting in recent times, haven't we? Heck, even last week the viewership was wretched. Here's a report from our very own John Canton:
"This weeks Raw viewership numbers are in and its not great news for WWE. The show averaged 3.39 million viewers, which is down from the 3.89 million viewers last week. The first hour did 3.57 million viewers, the second hour was at 3.56 million viewers and the third hour dipped to 3.02 million viewers. These numbers are for the United States courtesy ofShowbuzzdaily. "The show earned a 2.44 rating. Its the lowest rating since a 2.31 on New Years Eve 2012. Part of the reason it was down is because it was the Labor Day holiday in the United States. A year ago on Labor Day it earned a 2.81 rating."
RAW, if anything, has failed in comparison to recent years.
