Supposedly the 24/7 title came about because USA had been hounding them about the ratings collapsing in the third hour every week and gave them a bunch of ideas to "fix" it. The ideas were allegedly not good but the 24/7 title was one they felt they could work with. So that does show some network pressure. But Fox is going to be the real interesting case in this. USA is USA and they may say some things but even bad Raw ratings are still their best ratings and they're not going to make too much of a fuss. Fox? That's a whole different ball game. Will be interesting to watch.
It'd be both funny and sad if one of the "fix it" ideas that made the cut was stealing an idea from 2002 that was kinda cool back then, but certainly nothing that was game-changing.
If we're gonna jack a decent idea from 2002.....bring back Raw Roulette for an episode.
