@JuicyPlayer You don't know good wrestling. At least the Rock was entertaining with his lack of high flying ability. Cena is boring with 4 moves....very passionate but that gets boring.
When Vince bought WCW and moved to TNN I feel that was the last dagger and what was once a great product when I was a kid seems to have been relegated to roller derby status
Ratings went down because they came out with 2 shows. People didn't NEED to watch both. Tough Enough was great, but it went off air before it got stale.
i can see why ratings dropped in 2002 and beyond but 2001? cuz even with the rock gone wwf still had a ton of great superstars at the time oh well cuz i think we can all agree wwe SUCKS ASS right now. ufc and tna are where its at
@FastandFurious450 2001 post wrestlemania lacked interesting mid card storylines. And even the main event scene wasn't that fun to watch. Heel austin didnt work remember?
@bellajessica89 Correction. Now it's between 5.7 and 6.2 million viewers, and that's not included the thousands/millions of people that watch it streamed for free online.
Stephanie is right... audiences' tastes are cyclical. A lot of people that were big into wrestling as teenagers have grown up and don't have the time, are starting families, etc. Watch in 5-10 years wrestling will be back to where it was in the mid to late 90s because all the kids that cheer for Rey will be teens.
This news guy don't know there facts it was Austin defending the wwf tittle at 2001 king of the ring not Kurt angle.

Tough Enough only created a very small handful of stars,and even those that made it on RAW and Smackdown have come and gone.

Since when the hell was Kurt Angle champion in June of 2001? He didn't have a belt at that time I don't believe. Certainly not the Heavyweight belt.

@TrueTalkTV I think he meant that Angle would be defending the KOTR Title, but it is pretty misleading
