Default Re: How Long do you think Poker will remain this popular?

It may be like televised wrestling, which hit a peak in popularity, but now has leveled off. Nonetheless, the WWE still continues to be high in cable ratings.

I was gonna say the exact same thing. WWE is not necessarily high, though. Last I saw, they are drawing around the same ratings now as they were several years ago during the Monday Night Wars. Wrestling had a surge in ratings after becoming more mainstream, much like poker, and that surge lasted for a few years. Poker may experience the same thing.
