WWE Boosts USA Network, JR on Flair DVD and more

by Scooter

Press Released by WWE:

WWE® Fuels USA Network’s Continuing Success
July 7, 2008
In a remarkably competitive 2Q 2008 marked by NBA playoffs and high-profile cable originals, USA was the No. 1 cable network delivering more P25-54 (1.27 million), P18-49 (1.25 million), total viewers (2.73 million) and households (2.04 million) than any other network in basic cable prime.

USA’s success was fueled, in part, by another tremendous ratings performance by WWE’s Monday Night RAW, as it has been since the program returned to USA in 2005. In the second quarter, RAW regularly placed in the top 10, representing more of these top spots than any other show and reaffirming its status as the No. 1 weekly series on cable.

-JR Blogs on The Ric Flair Definitive Collection:

The new Ric Flair DVD is “gold” and after watching it this weekend unless one absolutely hates “Naitch”, and if so shame on you, this particular DVD is a must have for any true wrestling fan’s collection. Naturally, one can make an argument as to why JR_BarBQ.jpgcertain matches were included and some were left off but all in all this is a helluva DVD and I love the seemingly endless interviews and some of the classic bouts are timeless. Yes, it did feel strange that someone apparently dropped the ball by not including a sit down interview with Ricky Steamboat who Flair will readily say is Ric’s greatest ever opponent. There are so many great Ric Flair bouts the WWE owns that another DVD of just classic, Flair matches could be easily assembled some day. More from Jim Ross…

Watch a few highlights of the Ric Flair Definitive Collection on Youtube…
