UPDATED: EliteXC Ratings Down 40%, 1.9 on Overnights : MMAPayout.com: The Business of MMA

Quote:

UPDATED: Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting the show got a 1.9 rating on the overnight. When all markets finish reporting in the numbers should bump up a tenth or two for either a 2.0 or a 2.1. This would fall into the low 2 range that MMAPayout.com felt would be a decent number for the show, per our show preview

Rating Expectations
Without the high profile fighters of the first card, ProElite and CBS are both admittedly coming into this card with muted expectations. While a rating somewhere in the 2.5 range would be an excellent overall rating for the show, they are probably looking at somewhere in the low 2’s. Anything below a 2 would have to be a troubling sign to both Elite and CBS and a cause for concern.

I actually missed the event. Normally I dont miss any major mma event.

i just completely forget. I guess i'll just watch the replay

I almost did to until about 3 days before, i can't remember what i was watching, but there was a small ad for it.

Great card, best elitexc ppv.

Muted expectations or not, that's a terrible rating for a CBS show. CBS recently cancelled one of my favorite shows, "Jericho" and it routinely got ratings in the 6-8 range, averaging 7-10 million viewers. A low 2 has to be a collossal failure for them in the eyes of CBS.

I did enjoy the card though.
