He hasn't wrestled in years, and it's not as if him making an appearance is that rare. He popped a rating a couple months ago it seemed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clintthecrippler Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 It's also possible that he popped the rating two months ago and everyone that tuned in that time saw they did jack shit with him and the rest of that show was damn near a complete nothing show otherwise so those people didnt come back this time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they used Austin well last night but I'm generally tired of legends and the way they're used creatively. But I don't know if WWE knows how to do anything else, they've been trying to live off The Attitude Era for the better part of 15 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 1 hour ago, Niners Fan in CT said: I thought they advertised Rey vs. Metalik and Cedric vs. AJ Styles also? But Austin was heavily advertised.. It's just not a great number considering they won't have SCSA around now. You're right about Rey/Metalik. I had forgotten about it was announced though I only recall hearing a day or so in advance. I don't recall Cedric/AJ being advertised a all though I could have missed it.

username Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 (edited) Austin also opened the show last night, so it's not like anyone who tuned in to see him had to stick around past the opening segment.

Burgundy LaRue Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I want to say the last time RAW's third hour crashed like that, it was with Seth/AJ in the main event right after the Superstar Shakeup. It was from that that we got the Wild Card rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but the opening segment was about 20 minutes so I think the first hour would be way higher if people tuned in, got their Austin fix and dipped. It appears that most people didn't bother to tune in at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 9 hours ago, Niners Fan in CT said: I think that's the YouTube/Dailymotion tier. But in the network's defense they've been A LOT better adding stuff from other promotions lately. Hidden Gems folder is awesome and probably worth the $9.99 by itself. I hope they fix the issues before Clash of Champions, I'm in no mood to watch a spinning wheel all night. Spin the wheel, make the deal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odessasteps Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I think it would have been a good idea for a Clash, but not a PPV. Better to have known matches if you are getting people to spend money. Same with Lethal Lottery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 What you really want is WCW Worldwide 1993, International version. The commentary team is Solie and Regal. It's fantastic having Lord Steven call his own matches, making excuses for every reversal the jobber gets. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I believe not. There might be a few hours of it on VHS in my loft, but... there might not. Or it could have decayed to the point of unwatchability. Or I could have taped over it years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted September 11, 2019 Author Share Posted September 11, 2019 Per PWI - Kurt Angle's new role with the WWE is producer on the RAW side He apparently has been shadowing folks on and off the last few months and the MSG show was one of his first (or his first) producing the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
