WWE is tanking bad lately right now and it looks really good on them.
Right now they're trying to rebrand for a younger demo right now and get back to that Hogan era style where it's all about good guys and bad guys and more kid friendly. WWE are really reaching because of the loss of main eventers and the lack of new star development. Everybody behind the scenes today is either a McMahon or a former TV writer, not from the wrestling business and the product is sincerely suffering. They've gotten terribly gimmicky even for them, with all cage match PPVs and "guest celebrity hosts" on RAW and it's just killed the wrestling product.
McMahon FREAKS over these types of MMA ratings and sees this as a real kick in the teeth. He will flip out and I get a kick outta it, because true old school wrestling fans have abandoned him for more legit forms of athleticism and drama, like MMA.
