People watched it because of it's Attitude.

>>1328170
why not go back to that style to get higher ratings?

>>1328174
Sponsors, money, how everyone in 2016 are pussy bitches, social media.

>John Cena single handedly killed wrestling ratings.

Cena is responsible for RAW being in decline since 2001?

>>1328174
Vince really likes the softer style, he's always wanted to be a children's show really. Attitude was exciting TV, and even Ruthless Aggresion era was too much for USA network.

However, USA network recently seems to be ready to embrace riskier TV content. Vince may move on from wanting to be so PG, but Steph and Shane got over in the attitude era, so chances are they'd like to go back to that if Vince lets them.

>>1328206
yes

>>1328168
>Stephanie McMahon singlehandedly killed wrestling
FTFY

>>1328168
vanilla midgets killed vwrestling

After Hogan, Austin and Rock worked their asses to make Wrestling relevant here comes faggot Cena and destroys everything while he buries the entire roster.

Fuck him.

>>1328168
Wrestling isn't cool anymore. It's as simple as that. The atrocious ''''''''''creative''''''''' team doesn't help matters.

>>1328229
why you like tall guys so much you big gay

>>1328168
People dont have TV's anymore

>>1328168
>no streams
>popular
>less channels
>less entertainment options
>different way of registering ratings.
pretty simple

With the brand split coming, I believe they will have one show be very indy and appealing to HHH and have the other show be very heavyweight-like, which would satisfy Vince

Someone put it really well the other day, basically all that stuff that was "edgy" then is just normal now, and easily accessed via the internet.

You cant just put tits and blood on TV and expect high ratings for a wrestling show.

Triple h killed the ratings, Cena just furthered the damage under triple h's care

WCW had it own built in audience in the south and with WCW no longer around those people, me for one don't give a fuck about WWE

>>1328168
People today are very sensitive and don't like edgy attitude era shit. Cable is going down the drain and WWE will go down with it. WWE is not the NBA or NFL, it's not mainstream or considered cool. Smarks/Indy Wrestling is killing it faster.

>>1328168
It could also be people are cutting the cord on cable. I mean Raw without NFL season or the NBA final playoffs is the most watched show leaving anything below it in irrelevancy.

>Wrestling viewership right now is at an all time low thanks to those faggots roman and dean
Triggering two types of /asp/ies at the same time. Nice work bruh.
