WWE Network is gonna eat in the first 6 months
- Thread starter mcellas
- Start date
YOU FORGOT TAX = $1,440,0009.99 per month with a 6 month commitment
So thats 60 bucks per subscription.
The avg PPV buys are around 300k 500k so lets say 60X400,000= 24,000,000 in 6 months
25,440,000
YOU FORGOT TAX = $1,440,000
25,440,000
And no middle man no cable company taking money off the top
might even get more than that considering plenty of people, myself included don't buy the ppvs. what's raw average rating at? plus they might even get some old school heads that stopped watching and might want to buy just to relive the history back then. nostalgia and what not. they can easily pull over 500k subscribers, close to 750k. shoot they might just hit a million. and imagine when it goes international.

I wouldn't be surprised if they hit a milly. I know I don't buy shyt and never have, but this is a low risk, high reward first day cop..

Most people I've heard say they're gonna subscribe haven't gave the company money in years. I think Raw gets around 2.5 to 3 million viewers. No reason why a third shouldn't subscribe given how much time they're gonna spend advertising it on Raw.might even get more than that considering plenty of people, myself included don't buy the ppvs. what's raw average rating at? plus they might even get some old school heads that stopped watching and might want to buy just to relive the history back then. nostalgia and what not. they can easily pull over 500k subscribers, close to 750k. shoot they might just hit a million. and imagine when it goes international.

I don't follow the TV ratings or PPV buys. Neither do I purchase PPVs or watch their weekly shows live outside of Wrestlemania season.
Trust me though, I will be getting this first day. There are a lot of people like me who will cop.
It's gonna sell great. I do expect some issues in the beginning though because of that.

Shoot we can be eating also. If you got friends that happen to not get the network and wanna watch the ppv, invite them over and charge them 10 to 15. maybe 20 for mania. few heads and you might get your sixty back. besides it's dropping now that tax returns coming back so even poor folks like me can get it.
They need to add old RAWs/Nitros/Smackdowns eventually too but the PPVs from jump are enough to eat off of for years.

the overseas draw will save them

Sure, it's wishful thinking, and he was talking to investors at the time, so ... yeah.
