-------------------------------------
Why ratings should go up
by Dave Meltzer

<snipping to the point>

--She (Stephanie McMahon) starts complaining via speaker phone to Vince (who
has the brains to stay off the show during the holiday season so when he
returns, the ratings will go up, unlike the last time, and people will
attribute it to him--by the way--both shows should do good numbers on 1/8
because football is over. The combined head-to-head wrestling audience was
hovering between 9-10 million over the summer before the NFL and it's now
7.5 to 8.5 million against football. Not all of that audience will return
because WWF has lost ratings due to the network switch, but there are still
going to be around one million fans that watched football the last four
months that will return to wrestling, probably 60-70% of which will return
to WWF and the rest to WCW).

Good Gawd!

Yeah but football ratings were down again this year. I think it is just
wishful thinking, to beleive that the WWF ratings will go up again after
football season is over. If football were the reason for the lower
ratings, than the ratings won't go up until at least January 8, given
all of the college bowl games on this week. But then again, that is just
my opinion.:-)

So will Hogan be returning to WCW at this time as well?
