Seems like nobody cares about anything besides Cena/Punk/Rock, The Shield, or Vince/Heyman. Everything else just loses viewers.
EDIT: Oh and I forgot Ziggler/ADR

Punk-Cena opened to a VERY strong number, highest of the show which led to the continuing loss of viewers until the 9 PM hour.

Do they ever gain any viewers other than at the top of the hour(s)?

Dean Ambrose calling himself a flaky cow ***** in this interview is odd but funny.

I'd rather Booker T just be GM of both shows. He's appearing on both anyways now.

What about this idea. Swagger continues this run and get a ton of heat on him to wrestlemaina and gets a cheap win over adr. Adr retaliates after the match, then ziggler cashes in.

No point in Swagger being champion for about three minutes with the angle now and how much attention it's getting.
ADR should win with some Ricardo shenanigans, Swagger beats down ADR post-match and hauls Ricardo to the back and allows Ziggler to cash in.

According to PWinsider, there has been a lot of backstage talk among officials and Del Rio himself of how successful his planned babyface turn went. There were some people backstage, said to have been unsure on the idea of turning Del Rio and for weeks the idea was nixed on many occasions. It had also been said that Del Rio was pushing to freshen up his character, and with WWE looking to expand more into the Hispanic market, he went to Vince McMahon and personally asked him to change into a fan-favourite. Vince McMahon was also said to be very keen on the idea, and that Del Rio personally asking to freshen up his character, gained him a lot of support from the boss himself.

so when does Cena go to Vince and ask him to change up his character?

Vigil taking his act to New York

Seriously wondering what's going on with him. At least before it was him paying for a spot and trying to peddle some pics and stuff from a booth. This seems not just awkward, but desperate.

Cena vs Punk for WM title shot, Vince/Heyman, Glenn Beck stuff. This Raw sounds like it will be good.
