Meltzer:
"The Invasion angle in Madison Square Garden scored big last night, garnering a 4.7 rating on Raw, the show's best number since April 30th.
The show started out strong with consistent growth throughout except for one segment (Edge vs. Billy Gunn, as if you couldn't have guessed). The non-main event angle with Booker T, Vince, Austin and Angle, etc. did a 5.6 rating, more than a half point better than any Raw matches have done. The Shane & Booker interview from WWF New York earlier in the show did the second best marks at 5.2, clearly showing it was that angle that was the reason for the increase. This surprisingly strong rebound bodes well for the next month since television is being built around continuing the angle.
Heat did a 1.3 for the first run of the show, live before King of the Ring, which isn't a strong sign, and an 0.7 for the replay. Both Livewire and Superstars fell to 0.7 ratings as well."
This is great news for the WWF. They can go full steam with the angle now.
