D.Brine is getting buried out there. He should go to TNA, they'll know what to do with him. They'll put him in a tag with Eric Young and reboot the American Males. They wouldn't care that Young is Canadian.

Daniel Bryan
isn't being helping by jobbing every damn smackdown. It's like they give him the briefcase and then have him keep losing, since they feel that he has the briefcase so it is ok. It isn't like you have the commentators putting him over as tough and really stepping up his game standing toe to toe with the main eventers either. Cole will bury him the entire match again like he always does. This makes the crowd and people at home think he is boring, a nerd, and can't win a match.
I'm not saying I agree with way he's being booked, though I don't think it's horrible. I'm saying burial is much too strong a word. He's lost three matches, yes, but, presuming the Christian one is the same, they've been hard fought and competitive against formidable opponents. Not to mention they've been hugely entertaining.
Supposedly informed fans can be too quick to overlook the story of a match and place all the emphasis on a W or L.

It will happen, unless everyone chooses to ignore TNA this week. I know it will be hard, but we must.

A win or loss doesn't matter if the commentators put him over and he has a hard fought match. Coming within inches of winning a title multiple times only to lose and finally realizing his dream at Wrestlemania is a great story if the commentators put it over right. Which they are not doing.

Didn't everyone bitch when Edge kept constantly losing matches when he had the briefcase back in 2005? He turned out just fine.

"For whatever it's worth, on Sky's Formspring account, she responded to a fan question about Hardy commenting, "The only reason he's still alive is because of me." When asked how she felt about the entire situation, Sky wrote, "Hurt / exasperated / exhausted / furious / tired of being lied to / tired of enablers. Just tired."
When asked what she said to Hardy after his accident, Sky responded, "Which one..." and when asked whether Hardy had gone "insane", Sky wrote, "I'm the wrong person to ask..."
"
Wow, this guy needs help.

You know what? Good. Fuck them. I have no sympathy for those that abuse their lives and all the insane amount of chances they've gotten.

W:L ratio never matters. An exceptionally gifted wrestler can lose every match in the WWE for a year and still be either loved, hated, cheered or booed. He can still be relevant - it's all in the character.
Come on guys, looking at the past tells you enough - these losses mean nothing.
Also: Ratings are antiquated and dead. The only metric that matters is if people know of it or not - not where they saw it and when. Watching TV on a schedule is dying.

USA would not like that. Loads of channels hate that shows from their network are available online after they air, so simultaneous airing would get exces in a fluster

Ratings take a long time to go up. One show will not turn things around. Back in 97 WWE was putting on excellent shows and a much edgier product, but it took over a year for them to overtake WCW in the ratings. If they can put on a show that good on a consistent basis then things might change.

How this ratings are being counted? Is it for the 9pm est slot only? or for the total viewers. I mean before I got direct I would have to wait til 9pmpacific to watch it.

In WCW Nash would frequently boast that if he had to promo against The Rock he totally bury him and make him look like an idiot. Rock ended up hearing about this so when it did happen Rock destroyed him.MetalFearSolid said:
Nash also calls himself the smartest man in the business. Considering how he has managed to keep getting large contracts from companies he may actually have a point.
