I blame the SvR games and TLC 2011 for convincing people ladder matches end by pin.

why would you have a while with a return in it. seems like...

bool isVinceMcMahonRight()
{
return true;
}

would make more sense. also its not virtual so can never be overridden

WWE would rather bury a talented guy like Ziggler than fire him and let him work for TNA.

But would they really fire anyone over a Rollins tweet joke?

I loved their fantasy league. It made watching Raw a lot of fun, if you picked some jobber who ended up in a hardcore match or otherwise going on a weapon fuelled rampage you struck gold.

No Mercy 2007 was awesome and was the result of Cena needing surgery so because of that I think they stacked the card a bit. Orton losing to a roll-up in about 5 minutes had me in stitches but man that last man standing match was amazing. Spoiler the table doesn't break.

That reminds me of the other LMS match Orton and Triple H had where they did a honestly baffling spot that resulted Orton dislocating his shoulder. Triple H counters the RKO and sends Orton over the top rope crashing down on the outside mat. Always wondered whose idea that was and what the gently caress they were thinking because knowing how prone Orton was to dislocations it had serious injury written all over it.

I feel like with the huge growth of good TV over this span would show most programming with a similar curve, but also basic eyeballing the graph and saying "yep poo poo's bad now" seems accurate.

TV watching has also pretty dramatically changed with DVRs and On Demand services. It's still not good, but a 3.0 rating today is a lot different from a 3.0 rating 5, 10, and especially 15 years ago.

Didn't we run fantasy Raw for a little bit here? I remember you got points for finishing moves, and this was right in the midst of Randy Orton RKOs Everyone, so there'd be shows when he'd just do six RKOs in one segment and the dudes who took him that week cleaned up.

Essentially, yes. The TV business is continually fragmenting, the Internet is cutting into things in numerous ways, and TV is no longer quite the cultural touchstone. About the only thing continually rising in viewership is football. That being said, the ratings for wrestling are still bad.
