I really want Ring Ka King to succeed. I hope they have more indian wrestlers than just Sonjay Dutt. Spring money for Great Khali and maybe take a couple of promising indian athletes and send them to OVW for some training before coming back to India.
Scott Steiner can only go so far pretending to be Tiger Jeet Sighn

Not going to lie, I was expecting about 150,000 buys.

Now Triple H can blame the "midget" Punk for the buyrate. If it was up, it would have been thanks to him and Nashs' classic.
God I hate him, I can't believe he is going ruin the Streak @ Mania. He made Taker look like shit at last years Mania, wasting Takers last matches to try and make him a legend, even though he will always be mid-level. And take credit for John Cena and Rocky setting the record for buys. nepotism is running wild.

TLC was the un-Cena PPV right?

So leaving your top star off the card results in a 'slight' dip in buyrates.
A SLIGHT dip. This may be a sign that building new stars for the future need not hurt the present.

People don't have money for so many PPVs, there's still a recession going on, but that's something the republican owners of the WWE don't understand. Presenting a better product wouldn't hurt, either.

Not bad considering Cena wasn't on the show, which might have put some of the younger fans off watching it.
