List of WWE PPV buyrates available, Jericho shirt, and Kurt Angle note
On Wednesday, September 7, 2005 at 12:48 PM EST As noted in the press release issued earlier today, WWE listed the following final Pay Per View buyrates during the quarter:
* Backlash - 273,000 buys
* Judgment Day - 236,220 buys
* ECW One Night Stand - 268,264 buys
* Great American Bash - 233,233 buys
* Vengeance - 320,232 buys
These buyrate numbers not only show how much stronger of a brand RAW is over SmackDown in the PPV business, but also shows how a company like ECW can still draw over a current brand (SmackDown) that has been out of business for four years.
WWE Shopzone is still carrying Chris Jericho's recent "Ayatolla of Rock-n-Rolla" t-shirt despite the angle running of him being "fired" by Eric Bischoff a few weeks ago on RAW. For more, click here.
Nashville's Tennessean newspaper recently ran an article about a 22-year-old man winning an essay contest to get the chance to work out with Kurt Angle for a day. To check it out, click here.
