HIAC Dark Match Result, Al Sharpton/Low RAW Ratings, WWE/Australia

The New York Post has an article looking at the lower rating that WWE Monday Night Raw scored last week with the Rev. Al Sharpton as host, its lowest since last November. WWE rep Robert Zimmerman added, “Yes we were low, but ‘Monday Night Football’ really had a lot to with it.”

As noted earlier, WWE is promoting their tour of Australia next year in July and August as “The official WWE tour of 2010.” The belief is that the company is doing this so people don’t confuse Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff’s upcoming “Hulkamania” tour and even TNA’s tour in early 2010 as being a WWE tour.

Matt Hardy defeated Mike Knox with the Twist Of Fate in the dark match before the WWE Hell in a Cell PPV.
