I hadn't seen those and I don't know the TNA numbers. I know RoH was at around 2000 before all the technical issues they had.

PWG needs to get in on this.

Problem is they use a ton of ROH guys and guys that work for Gabe that aren't allowed to do iPPV for other promotions.

Yeah. I'm just going to have to admit to myself that I'm just never going to get into PWG.

Well I mean, $20 for a DVD isn't that much but at this point I wouldn't pay that for most PWG shows. 2013 was a rough year for that company. BOLA was great, everything else kind of sucked.

I look at the deals for older stuff sometimes. I really just don't have the time and I already spend too much money on Chikara DVDs, comics and Filsinger stuff. Oh well, can't see everything.

Money's probably better spent that way. PWG shows tend to be a bit much in terms of too much shit being stuffed in a five pound bag.
re: TNA - their PPV buys aren't disclosed but last I remember reading, the estimates for Lockdown were around 4,000-5,000.

That's pretty pathetic for a show that gets watched by a million people a week. I don't have high expectations for the RoHgame PPV to pull numbers either. I think wrestling on PPV is a dying business model and probably already dead if you aren't WWE.

The ironic thing is that "It's a good time to be an indie on iPPV" right at the time the biggest indie is leaving iPPV for cable and satellite PPV.
I wonder if ROH going back to traditional PPV will change their talent's rules regarding iPPV?

Doubt it. I bet those Sinclair contracts group iPPV/PPV together as the same thing.

I wonder if ROH going back to traditional PPV will change their talent's rules regarding iPPV? Actually, ROH aren't leaving iPPV. Their cable/satellite PPVs will be offered on UStream for the same price so people who don't have access to cable/satellite/international fans can still order the shows. Doubt it. I bet those Sinclair contracts group iPPV/PPV together as the same thing. Yep, they do. |
