That's a dumb thing to say considering that Raw is the #1 rated show on cable television, & Smackdown! has sometimes put UPN ratings wise ahead of networks like Fox & ABC on Thursday nights.

Well to be fair, Raw isn't really the number one cable show. I think Monk beats it every time, and the only time UPN beats anyone is when the other Networks are on reruns. If SD showed reruns then UPN wouldn't even beat WB on Thursdays.

I got a huge kick out of Muhammad Hassan's character. I saw him wrestle live at Madison Square Garden and dude really knows how to work the crowd. It's a shame what they're doing.

I'm not trying to say he's bad on the mic, in fact I always thought he was quite good, but getting the crowd to hate you by calling the US a joke and Americans racist losers isn't exactly hard. It's called cheap heat because anyone can really do it. People say Benoit isn't so great on the mic but if you gave him an anti-American gimmick he would get loud boos too. A new gimmick will truly show how god Hassan is at getting the crowd involved.
Remember Jim Duggan? All he did was yell out "Hoooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaah" and scream "USA, USA, USA" and the crowd cheered all night, but he was by no means a great talker. He just knew how to get cheap pops. After a while he did become so lovable that outside of USA he ciuld get the crowds to chant it, but it all started with cheap heat.

I was reading that the Undertaker is suppose to kill the guyat Great American Bash lol. That would be a pretty shitty idea if you ask me.
