Early WMXXIX buyrate not good

No surprise the buyrate is reportedly lower than expected. WWE kinda "mailed it in" this year, they didn't go all-out with the build-ups like they usually do.

The main build-up we saw was for the Punk/Taker match, it started off somewhat "late" and just revolved around Paul Bearer's death. Rock wasn't around that much compared to the previous year, his match with Cena was a rematch.

It just wasn't a good lead-up to the company's biggest show of the year. The "Road to WrestleMania" wasn't what we're used to seeing.
