WWE's HIAC buyrate

[Black Widow]

2013 Hell in a Cell: 200,000

Looks like cena is breaking records everywhereUnforgiven 2000: 605,000(Austin's comeback)


No Way Out 2003: 450,000 (Austin's comeback)

This is what happens when people actually wanna see someone return.

[Bad News Gertner]

It's up from last year

[#1-norm-fan]

It's also up from the previous two Cena-less PPVs.

So unless WWE expected Cena's return after a 2 month absence to bring PPV buyrates back into Austin-era numbers like AJ lee's seems to think they were, good job Cena.

[The One]

Was the OP's point that John Cena today isn't as over as Steve Austin was at the end of the Attitude Era?

If so, couldn't we point out that Steve Austin challenging The Rock for the WWF Championship did 1,040,000 buys at WrestleMania X-Seven against John Cena challenging The Rock for the WWE Championship doing 1,039,000 buys at WrestleMania 29. By that logic, they're almost just the same.

John Cena can't and shouldn't be measured against the hottest period of wrestling, he can only help or detract from the current product. And considering his presence has increased views from previous events without him, one would think he's doing more good than harm.

[Bad News Gertner]

As punishment, AJ Lee's most post a topless pic....unless she's jailbait....in which case Superslim would like to talk to you.

[owenbrown]

when did The One sneak back onto TPWW?

[Theo Dious]

Maybe it's like Sin Cara and The One is now being portrayed by some other guy.

[JimmyMess]

Steve Austin is bigger than everyone

[whiteyford]

Just lol.

[Poit]

You're totally right. The only variable that has changed in the past decade is replacing Austin with Cena.

Groundbreaking analysis here.

[whiteyford]

And the event names listed Poit, don't be so mean.

WM is the biggest ppv and Austin's return was at 2 throw away ppvs



As punishment, AJ Lee's most post a topless pic....unless she's jailbait....in which case Superslim would like to talk to you.I'm 23 & only like girls.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Hey AJ Lee's, I too am a homosexual female. Send me some pictures and I'll send you mine. I have sexy boobies.

[Skippord]

I am Iginfest's ex girlfriend, I can assure you that her boobies are pretty great.

[Kingofdaswing]

Cena is the top draw in wrestling today. No questions asked. It's not Cena's fault wrestling "fans" don't buy the PPVs like they used too, and sit in the parents basement and watch the PPV from their command centre.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Geez Skippord, do you have to keep following me everywhere you bitch? There was a reason we broke up remember? :roll:

[screech]

AJ lee's might be the only one who hasn't seen Iginfest's boobies.

[slik]

that is probably a higher buyrate than Survivor Series will generate

[Heisenberg]

AJ lee's, if real, is going to become the Queen of TPWW just off her responding to other posters like a good poster should.

I don't care much to see the goods, I want to know how you dropkick, if you do at all, and if you book a good birthday party.

[Bad News Gertner]

My gf is bi and she's asking for a pic.

[Shadrick]

I think we are all women and lesbians and would like pics. I mean, we're all attractive women, yes?

[Poit]

I'm trying to remember if I've seen Iginfest's boobs before.

[The One]

Yeah. WM is the biggest ppv and Austin's return was at 2 throw away ppvs

In the Attitude Era throw away PPVs were routinely given huge matches. It was all part of Russo car crash theory of continue to bombard the audience constantly. I mean, come on, the Unforgiven 2000 event can hardly be called "Austin's return" since he didn't do anything other than walk around and ask people who hit him with a car. Meanwhile the Main Event was The Rock vs. a still fresh from returning Undertaker vs. Kane vs. Benoit. Plus it had E&C vs. Hardyz in a cage match at the peak of the TLC trio era, AND it boasted a match with the most over Superstar in WWE history; I am of course talking about Steve Blackman.

Meanwhile No Way Out 2003 had Austin coming back to have a joke bout with Eric Bischoff. Not really a return to form for the Rattlesnake. If anything I think principle selling point of the event was the emotionally disappointing Rock/Hogan II match, not Austin beating on Eazy E for a few minutes. That or people were dying to see the Steiner/HHH feud finally come to an end. Yeah let's say it was that, cause I know the body showdown get people's expectations wayyyyy up.

I get what you're trying to say, that Steve Austin's comebacks generated more hype than John Cena's comebacks do. And you're not wrong. But you're framing the issue using PPV buyrates during the single hottest period of wrestling against the buyrates of today's less than impressive market. WWE is not as popular as it was during the Attitude Era. John Cena is not as popular as Steve Austin. These are fairly universally accepted truths. So I guess my question now is, what was the point of bringing up Austin's return buys against Cena's? To reiterate a point we already know?

[#1-norm-fan]

Guys, guys. You're missing the main point here.

AJ Lee's is a stupid bitch.

[MoFo]

I too am here for the titty pics.

[James Steele]

Iggy, do you wax your cooter?

[Skippord]

Geez Skippord, do you have to keep following me everywhere you bitch? There was a reason we broke up remember? :roll:
I'M SORRY I JUST NEED CLOSURE ON OUR RELATIONSHIP

[whiteyford]

John Cusack would never have treated you that way Skippord, just sayin'.

[Shadrick]

Iggy, do you wax your cooter?

[James Steele]

I feel like Shadrick and I may be long lost friends from a past life.
