As I stated in another thread, with fan support dwindling there is only so much they can squeeze prices.

Turnout will keep getting lower, however if they keep rising ticket prices they will eventually reach a point where fans refuse to pay it and they are unable to squeeze any more money out of them.

I am already priced out of house shows over here and I have a fairly good income.

I've said so as well. In other words, I agree.

Well, turnout may not continue to dwindle. They could fix things, make a better program, and draw...Oh shit...Who am I kidding?

Which is funny, because people are talking about how reasonable the prices are.

Honestly, I couldn't justify paying more for the product now than I did for the product in 2000. I'd be paying quite a bit more for a product that is significantly less entertaining. And eventually, more and more people are going to be in that boat.

Plus, the spending power of Americans is getting lower. And since WWE hardly panders to the movers and shakers, there will come a point where they will price themselves out of feasability, period. Doesn't matter if people like them or not....
