Meltzer has been talking about his doubts that they can survive till season 3. Looking into it they don't have any international distribution, have a small network in the States and don't run any live dates. Given the production values and salaries of the talent I can't help but assume they must be making a loss.
However Meltzer also said he didn't think they would last for a second season so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that someone comes along with interest in the product cause along with NXT it's the freshest, most interesting promotion I've seen in a very long time. The two things I can see holding them back from getting national coverage would be the levels of violence they're prepared to use (I'm mainly thinking Pentagon Jr vs Vampiro here) and the intergender matches which I think a lot of networks would be uncomfortable with.
I seem to recall talk of interest in pursuing a relationship with Netflix - I don't know exactly how that would help in terms of income but if possible, I think that would be the perfect way to bring the show to a bigger audience.
