Superstars Outdraws iMPACT!, SD! Matches For Tonight, More
– WWE Superstars on New Year's Eve actually drew a higher rating than TNA's four-hour Knockout special, scoring a 0.70 to their 0.69. iMPACT! drew 1.00 million overall viewers while WWE's offering drew 761,000 viewers. The reason WWE did a higher rating with less viewers is because WGN America is in significantly fewer homes than Spike.
– Here are some more notes from The UK Sun interview with the Big Show: On Why The New Generation is Not Standing Out: "Talent will get you so far, but work ethic is the key. That's the thing that the guys on top have. We don't complain about flights. We don't complain about not going home. We don't complain about having an hour's sleep and then doing interviews at 5am. That's why we're on top ? because we step up to the plate and do whatever it takes to make the company succeed. A lot of people aren't willing to do that, they're happy and content to be where they are. I really do think that is strange, and it plagues a lot of older guys in the locker room. We can't understand why they are not taking these opportunities. But let them be content. I'll stay on top!" On John Cena: "They've got every opportunity in the world to grab the ring and get to the top. Look at John Cena ? he is singularly the hardest working guy in our business. I flat out have so much respect for John and the work ethic that he puts in. He might not go home for two months between wrestling shows, interviews, appearances and charity work. And that's the thing that John Cena has above everyone else ? it comes down completely to work ethic."
