bono Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 HBK's being made to look like he needs protected though which I think is a bit weird considering he's meant to be the showstopper, best in-ring wrestler of all time etc etc. Â He's not been a wrestler in over two years and he has a maniac Brock Lesnar on his tail. It's not really as simple as you make out. Â I know what your saying but I think theve made hbk look like abit of a mug. Â Michaels has never been scared of anyone so why has he started now? Â My money's on hbk to cost Lesnar the match with a sweet chin music! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why wouldnt they make him look like a mug? What are they protecting him for? He's retired, so it doesnt matter if he's sent out as bait for this angle. Michaels being fodder is what he should do. He's got kids and a wife. If I was in his situation, I wouldnt want trouble either. His commitments are different from when he was a regular on the roster. His character has probably grown accustomed to the family life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bono Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I just haven't been convinced about michaels as the mug. Â For me personally I'd have had michaels not running scared of Brock.brock could of still taken him out without michaels acting like he was terrified. Brocks already over as a monster. Â I understand the point about him being retired and that but I just think the Shawn michaels character has never been portrayed as a scardey cat so I don't think it's needed now.

The Invisible Boy Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I loved Heyman at the end of the show just in disbelief constantly repeating "You broke his arm! You broke his arm! You broke his arm!..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted August 14, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted August 14, 2012 The go home show of Raw did a 2.8. The lowest 3 hour Raw ever I believe. Thats 1997 level viewership. A rotten number for a go home show. Nobody is buying SummerSlam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dart Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Blimey. Do people really still give a shit about the ratings? I get what it means to advertisers, but it represents the actual number of people watching less than ever. In 1997 no one was watching the show on youtube or .com. Â If you feel the need to find out what the rating was then I dunno why you're watching, what difference does it make to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not watching. I watch for a bit and usually end up turning it off. I'm posting information on a message board. Not the most alien concept in the world. Posting that information is all I have to contribute to the thread, because three hours of Raw isn't something thats thrilling me if I'm honest. And judging by this weeks viewership, I'm not the only one. Â Also your viewership is based on ratings. If ratings didn't matter, angles wouldn't get stopped, pushes wouldn't get put on hold and nobody would be fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members ShortOrderCook Posted August 15, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted August 15, 2012 You did. It made me laugh as it seemed an odd thing to say as there's only been what 3 or 4 of the regular ones. Just me being a dick on wording. I'd have set yet rather than ever. Â Carry on.
