yeah, old ninjas.......
I hope its not sting - i think hes a ninja and it would be lame if he comes out as gm when he was already gm and injured.
Thinking of names - King Mo needs to debut soon.....

Good stuff
He's not entirely wrong. D.Brine ended up not using that date.
I was expecting a "Which isn't that big of a gain for that hour."
Good stuff
Should have used Raw when King said "I can't think of any" and had a picture of RVD.
Anyway, My guess is Dolph will announce he cashes in at Wrestlemania, and Sheamus will get a hangnail and Vince will change his mind and decide to give Dolph the title for 30 seconds before jobbing it immediately to Randy Orton.
and AJ vs Bree Olson
Christian vs. The Miz lost 895,000 viewers but that's not a surprise given the large gains for the previous segments.
The question is.....did they tune out when they saw Christian or did they tune out when they saw The Miz?
Also, the match the WWE Universe voted that they wanted to see......is the segment with the largest decrease in viewers.

The sad reality is probably that people tuned out because it was a wrestling match that went a decent amount of time.

Can't blame them. Miz is soooooooooo boring in the ring.
He sucks.
Remember when he was WWE Champion? With PPV matches against Lawler?
Dark times.
be honost though. Christian is pretty darn dull. i said it. everybody too scared to say it.
Just watch his last match. Every Christian match is exactly the same as the one before it.

This is the part where I mention how Christian has the 3 worst signature moves in the history of any future TNA HOFer.
I feel like I need to watch a B A STAR segment after that promo.
"Why are these guys jumping around? Where's ma stories, pa?!"
Nah, heel Christian is just annoying and dull.
ONE MORE MATCH!
Not really. He made the whole Orton feud last year very interesting. His mic skills are among the best.
The start of it was ok, but the one more match stuff just became annoying whining. I was happy when he got knocked down to mid-card jobber status so I could FF through his matches.
Christian is like Tommy Dreamer for me. I like the idea of him wrestling, talking, and just generally being around because I so thoroughly enjoyed the stuff of years gone by, but I don't actually care when Christian actually does something in the ring at all.
His presence other than "One More Match" phrase is just non-existent in my mind these days. Last match I really remember from him was the feud with Jericho over Trish.

But he's Captain Charisma...
He has been poorly used for a long time.
I hope not. Dude is a merchandise shill.

Was looking forward to it.I'm still gonna get the PC version, just because I want Wrasslin on my PC.....damnit.
I don't accept it. Ryder killed his own push as far as I'm concerned. While fine with heavily planned and able to re-shoot segments like his own youtube show or Wrestlemania scripts, given leeway on how to act or on the fly and he just flounders despite others giving him a chance. "Say what you want" and all he says is a catchphrase because it feels comfortable is why his part of the Ryder-Punk-Bryan celebration champions fell so flat. It may work for a pop, but I can't imagine anyone really wants to focus too much on you in the back if you can't do more on the mic.
Maybe I'm just overly disappointed in him. I never liked him in ECW and showings elsewhere, I don't care for any of his actual matches not involving Ziggler over-selling, but I wanted to after being entertained by Long Island Iced Z and nothing he does so.
Put him as the second man in a tag team (a la Billy Gunn) or give him a manager to talk for the television shows and PPVs, but he doesn't deserve a push on his own because he doesn't do well with the spotlight.
Sigh. Well I guess it's a good thing I didn't have much hope for it.

Say what you want about Zack Ryder, but the Kane/Ryder/Cena/Eve feud is absolutely, 100% the cause for where he is now. That's a FACT. Can not be argued, at all. The dude was changing tires THROUGH A COMMERCIAL BREAK on live national TV. The dude got pushed off a stage while he was in a neck brace in a wheel chair. The dude got played for a fool NUMEROUS TIMES by a woman who Cena killed off in one promo. The Rock couldn't make that angle work. Stone Cold couldn't make that angle work. Jesus himself could've been in that angle and it would've led to the downfall of Christianity.

Exactly. The guy built himself upto to a level that he was basically the top merchandise guy for the company. Then Cena had to get involved be his buddy and thats when the decline started because the close association with Cena turned people off.
Then Cena goes all Heel on him and with Eve basically buries him. You would expect some kind of revenge plot after Cena steals his girl etc but nope the story ends with Cena shitting on Eve.
I wouldnt put it past Cena getting involved for the whole purpose of neutering Ryder.
