[@sandeepmahal-kp5em]

Because she wanted to steal the bloody spotlight because she is someone who does not care because Charlotte & Becky are more popular then her and she was never a leader she was a shit fool plus Vince keeps giving her title matches every WM except for 34 WBR & 35 She was champion & 37 She was champion.

1. KZbin videos taking awhile to get a million views is normal 2. Doesn't matter how long it took what matters is that it hit a million. 3. That's the ratings for one singular country. It doesn't account for other countries that watch aew. 4. Nielsen is an outdated system that uses a very small sample size that's extremely inaccurate. It shouldn't be taken seriously. 5. And most importantly you're a fan. Remain a fan and stop worrying about ratings. That's for Khan to worry about. You just sit back and enjoy the shows little man.
