Overnight SmackDown rating + Steve Austin draws huge crowd in Richmond

    - The November 21st edition of WWE SmackDown pulled in a final 4.5 overnight broadcast rating with a 6 share, according to Nielsen Media Research. This overnight rating gave UPN a fourth place finish among other major networks. The final rating should be released later today.



    - Making his first public appearance since walking out on the WWE this past summer, an autograph session with Steve Austin was held last night in Richmond, VA at a Circuit City Store. However, it quickly turned into a "wild scene" according to The Richmond Times Dispatch after 5,000 people showed up for the event when only 3,000 were actually let into the store. The signing obviously drew more fans than the store expected and they finally had to draw the line in terms of capacity. This then angered the others waiting in line, causing one man to be charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.
