It's funny how Cole remembers how to call a match when HHH is in it.

Only missed out on the tag match and Y2J vs. Zigs. I'm happy.

Good result, WWE would gain nothing from what they have paid Brock for him to lose 2 matches in a row.

I'm surprised the PPV was under 3 hours long. Normally they are 3 or more hours.

7/10 for Summerfest, was good but had a few faults as well

And now begins the road to Night of Champions, see some of you back here for Raw later

He's being paid $1 million a year to wrestle and his contract for that expires on March 30th 2016, so I'm guessing no.

WWE put a copy of that contract online for some reason: http://sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1...xhibit10-6.htm

Damn, changed to PTP at the last minute expecting another suprise/title change, realized as soon as they built the match they weren't winning, lose out on 3 whole points there

Also realized after the fact picking Ziggler was a mistake, a win over an injured Y2J wouldn't do much for him and he had the upper hand over a guy who is leaving again and badly needing a PPV win, he can put Zigglypuff over later too

Overall i'm not too disappointed to only get two wrong, i've missed a few shows for the first time in a while lately. PPV was okay, i did enjoy it, mainly for the results, wasn't expecting too much, matches could have been a lot better though. Ending was.....hmmm

I love that fact that 'The Chaperone' sold better on DVD than Brock did that Pedigree.

Only Wrestlemania is longer than 3 hours, most are 10-15 minutes short of 3 hours.

RAW dropped 191,000 viewers for episode 1001 on Sky Sports 3.

But it's still up on last year by around 12,000 viewers and it's also up on TNA on FTA Challenge

357,000 viewers is very impressive considering the timeslot Raw is in.

Does anyone know how many viewers Raw used to average during the attitude era?

Just watched SummerSlam. It was like a really average PPV if I'm honest. Glad I didn't stay up until 4.

I think the increase in PVR's/Sky Plus over the past few years has definitely helped RAW's ratings. Only the real hardcore fanatics/the unemployed would stay up to watch an episode of RAW these days, or any wrestling show for that matter (major PPVs exempted).
