Reading today’s Q&A about the WWE network prompted me to wonder… outside of the PPVs, what do you think are the ratings for the original series, like Ride along, the Edge and Christian show, etc. Do they release that information? Or do they not need to?
It would only be a guess on my part. WWE knows how many people watch every show. The best part of being an Over The Top Network is that they can see who is watching what, they don’t have to guess by using extrapolated Nielsen numbers as TV Networks do. WWE has stated many times that they won’t release that information.
I'm really not clear on something. Braun Strowman and Roman Reigns. They both have been pushed heavily. Now they are matched up at Payback. Who can win, without denting the other's push? Some kind of DQ ending? What do you think?
I don’t think this one is hard to book at all. Reigns got destroyed on Raw so he will go in “hurt”. They could easily book him as fighting valiantly but just being too injured to win. I just hope that is how they do it, and not have him dominate, only to lose in the end. After the beat down he took, it’s very easy to book him to lose and yet stay strong.
I personally can't stand when a wrestler is turned from heel to face and vice versa an exceeding amount of times. Who would you say holds the unofficial record for being turned? I'd go Chris Jericho.
He sure has turned a lot. I won’t venture a guess as to who has done it the most but I agree with you. Frequent turns, with no real reason for them, do much more harm than good for characters.
Last time Jeff Hardy was in WWE, he had two strikes against him for wellness policy violations. I was curious if those still count against him now after so many years? If he got a strike, would he be immediately fired, or would it now be a clean slate and only be considered his first?
This is directly from the Wellness Policy: “Any WWE Talent, who leaves the WWE for any reason with a first or second violation on his/her record, will maintain said violation count on his/her record from the time he/she departs WWE until the time he/she returns, if ever, to the WWE.” So there you go!
Where was The Rock for Wrestlemania? Why was he not used?
It all comes down to his availability. If he is available, WWE will definitely take the rub from one of the top stars in Hollywood. At this point it comes down to whether he is available and he likes what they want to do with him. If he wanted to appear, they would have loved to have him I am sure.
