We see the buyrates and everythinf are low, but I just wonder who's still dropping $60 a month on WWE ppvs? No offense to those of u who do...

PPV's used to be the thing were angles/issues were resolved and then magically ppl moved on afterwards.

Now, rarely is anything resolved and the ppv just further pushes whatever angles are going on. Maybe the only one that does resolve things now is WM.

They're basically RAW with no commercials and more wrestling.

For real.

I only buy Mania or something huge like Punk/Cena I.

Everything else either gets dowloaded, Streamed for free or $3.50 depending how I feel that day.

Sometimes I'll throw in with a few friends, who cares? $10 ain't shyt. Sit around on a Sunday night, drink, food, wrestling. If the wrestling is :ohmy: status it makes it all the better but even if it sucks at least you're drunk, full and jokin around and shyt about all the fukkery

Guess I'm in the minority, but where I live ppvs cost $19.99. Even mania, so I order them. $20 ain't shyt and watching them on the big screen beats the computer screen :manny:

$20 would be my sweet spot for monthly PPVs as well, anything over that pushes it into the "is the wrestling going to be good?" price range. I'm spoiled though. Came up on an illegal cable box as a kid, streams the day i bought a laptop, and I used to drop $30 on ROH tickets, get good seats, and enjoy 4 hours of good to great wrestling live. Paying $45 plus tax for an extended Raw? fukk outta here.

I bought Lockdown and I was planning on buying Destination X, but I got sick and didn't know if I was going to make it through the whole show.


Buying WWE shows though :scusthov:

I remember begging my dad to order some WCW PPV, I think it was the DDP vs Goldberg one where they ran out of time and the rest of the match was shown on Monday night. My dad was like "see that's why I don't pay for that bullshyt." :laugh:
