RAW RATINGS (AND WHILE YOU CAN PUT PERFUME ON A PIG, IT'S STILL A PIG)

The 6/4 edition of Raw did a 2.9 rating with 4,285,000 viewers. The show did hours of 2.94 and 2.91.

That is up from last week but with way less competition on TV (no Hatfields & McCoys for one), it is hardly anything for WWE to feel good about. As I said on my hotline today, the first words out of Vince McMahon's mouth next week on Raw should be "You're Fired!" to John Laurinaitis. That storyline is killing the company and the talents that are being made subservient to it. It's boring, predictable and turning viewers away. If this rating, with almost no competition, doesn't send Vince and creative a message, they are deaf, dumb and blind. That only worked for one entity and that was The Who's Tommy. 

The 6/2 edition of AM Raw did a 0.44 rating with 457,000 viewers.
