So Prince Tensai is leaving?
Can they use the remainder of their Asian stereotype budget to bring Tajiri back please?

Raw ended up with a 2.9, in line with my predictions last night.

Yep, big question is will Vince McMahon be able to offset the 3 hours next week to keep them at the same level? If not they will go back to a 2.7.
Vince will put Punk in his segment as his backup plan.

Nope, but Yoshi is also the kid Raphael is friends with in TMNT III.
Coincidence? I Think NOT!

Tajiri be busy running his own promotion, WNC. They should just get rid of Tensai and keep his deshi Sakamoto, as he's been wrestling 9 years, is a student of TAKA Michinoku, a former Kaientai Dojo champion and he kicks better than the majority of the WWE roster.

High five! Yoshi-clique represent.
Come on WWE, how about actually taking a shot at making this guy credible? He's been stuck as a Superstar jobber for longer than just about anyone, other than Hawkins. Or Tyler Reks. Is he still around?

Raw averaged 4.32 million first hour viewers, then decreased slightly to an average of 4.25 million second hour viewers. It was the third consecutive week viewership has declined in the second hour.
-- On cable TV Monday night, Raw ranked #5 in overall viewers. Raw was faced with this season's weekly NBA Playoffs competition, which averaged 8.5 million viewers, and an old nemesis, "Pawn Stars" on History Channel, which averaged 5.9 million viewers. Raw was #2 in males 18-34 behind the NBA and #3 in males 18-49 behind the NBA and Pawn Stars.
The key for USA Network and advertisers is the key male demos actually declining compared to last week's year-low show. Monday night, Raw hit year-lows in males 18-34, males 18-49, and males 12-34. The only demo that was up was teen males 12-17 on the week John Cena returned to Raw after a one-week absence.
-- One year ago this week, Raw scored a 3.21 rating (up three-tenths of a rating compared to this week) and averaged 4.97 million viewers (up an average of 700,000 viewers compared to this week).

Who's that? Some lapsed wrestling fan turned Mixed Martial Arts enthusiast? That's who you're counting on?
We have a SoulPlaya.

That tweet Tatsu made regarding Tensai got me hyped for a possible feud. Too bad nobody in Creative gave a shit.
they booked a match, then Yoshi got squashed.

Isn't it funny that since that bald guy that runs Mixed Martial Arts called out Meltzer on not knowing about demos, suddenly all his reports are 18-34 this, 12-50 that.

This is pwtorch, not Meltzer.
Snowglobe Kliq knew this.
Those HBK snowglobe Kliq guys? I thought they learned their lesson the last time they tried returning.
I'll be ready.

I thought we all agreed that we would only post information that's behind a paywall?
Enjoy these small victories while you can. There won't be many of them.
Just press A, SoulPlaya, you can skip the guards easily.

That shouldn't have been the end of it - they should have had Tatsu keep asking for remtches and keep losing them, but also give him a new spark of hope each match - this time he staggers Tensai with punches, next time he actually knocks him off his feet, the time after that maybe he could come close to hitting his finisher. Big Johnny would then refuse to give Tatsu any more rematches, but due to Tatsu repeatedly interrupting Tensai promos & matches, attacking him backstage, etc, Tensai demands a match at PPV where, even if Yoshi doesn't beat him, he comes off looking strong by working a match more than two minutes long and by getting in some good offence. All that could have been accomplished in a month, and just maybe people might have given a crap about both guys afterwards. Instead, Tatsu remains a perennial jobber, while Tensai remains the big guy no one cares about, whose style is slow and has been neutered and who only ever appears as a means for Big Johnny to punish someone.

He has talked about demos for years. Dana White is just being insane. It's going to be great when Dana reaches Vince levels of crazy after years on top.
