Dreamer wrote that Wrestlemania is bigger than the Super Bowl, Final Four and World Series combined. That has to be the dumbest thing I have ever read. Mania is not even a blip on the radar, compared to these. I am so glad he did not end up winning the battle royal, he is a no talent boob with no appeal at all.

The Super Bowl, The Final Four, and The World Series are mostly only viewed by US viewers. Wrestlemainia is Viewed by people all over the world. so if u think Wrestlemainia is not even a blip u are sadly mistaken, and u i guess end up being the no talent boob with no understanding at all...

yeah ok i guess the most popular guy in the old ECW who had one of the best feuds ever in the history of wrestling with Raven that lasted over two years was just him having no talent, also take into consideration that this article was on WWE.COM OF COURSE HE'S GONNA SAY THAT ABOUT MANIA!!

Hey jackass. He wasn't even in the battle royal. He won the money in the bank. CM Punk is one of the most talented performers in the WWE. I bet you cheer for Cena don't you.

Oh my fault. I thought you said CM Punk. I take it back. You have to admire Dreamer just for the simple fact that he really does love the buisness.

1.5 Million buys? At what 55 dollars a pop? Imagen if NBC just ran mania free like they do the final four and the super bowl. I think it would be right up there with the super bowl, maybe not on top of it but past the final four. Who cares though they all can't pull world cup numbers in the billions of viewers.

what the hell is a 'Final Four?' i have heard of the superbowl and the world series (and as a canadian, i personally do not understand their appeal, but i digress) but have NO idea what the 'Final Four' is.
isn't that something to do with the penultimate episode of The Apprentice?

the Backlash poster is great. im not feeling the judgment day poster and it has nothing to do with the fact i want triple hhh to disapear from wrestling, alright maybe it has a little to do with that

I've no idea on earth what this Superbowl is and have never seen it. But I have watched every WrestleMania since VI in Toronto.

Everyone shut up, please. Whats bigger, an Event that has to pay celebs 20mill to be associate themselves with it or the Superbowl that is watched all over the world that charges 3million bucks for 30seconds of TV ad time? I'm a wrestling fan as well, but there isn't a comparison and you guys know this...

Even though the Super Bowl gets more viewers worldwide than Wrestlemania, people that watch Wrestlemania actually have a sense of what's going on, people watch the Super Bowl and may not even have a clue of what's going on. For instance, my father used to work for an American oil company in the Middle East and despite his limited understanding of the sport, he used to watch the NFL regularly as to have something to talk about with his American bosses. The World Series and the Final Four are nowhere near the worldwide appeal of Wrestlemania.

1.5 million buys.. Just imagine the viewer ship if it had been run for free

Nothing is free,you still have to have advertisers.

No one outside of the states gives a toss about the super bowl. (well okay, ex-pats, but sod all else). I don't even know what the hell the "final four" is. Now if you were talking about the World Cup final (of football, or soccer to people that are wrong), that would be a bigger event then Wrestlemania.

Tommy Dreamer is a no talent boob....Hmmmm lets see Tommy has lived HIS dreams and in the end has made a life for himself with the girl of his dreams and has 2 beautiful little daughters to go home to. Yep, Tommy wipes his a** with what you think about him mark.
