So apparently...WWE Hikes PPV Price
WWE Hikes PPV Price,
By Daniel Pena

05/28/2006 -
Starting with ECW One Night Stand, all WWE pay-per-views will now cost $39.95 instead of the usual $35.00. Directv.com has ECW One Night Stand listed at $39.95. The onscreen guide for Comcast Cable also has ECW ONS listed at $39.95.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, I was going to order ECW One Night Stand but FUCK THAT. I'm not paying $40 dollars for a 2 hour and 40 minute show. This is getting pretty fucking ridiculous.

I'll just download it an hour later via bittorrent.

Is 5 dollars more that much of a difference?

It's probably only for One Night Stand. They figure they can make more money off it than their normal SmackDown! PPVs.

Although I did hear that they were raising the prices for good.

Yeah. That was my thought too. ONS is an ECW PPV, supposedly a one-night deal, etc. Even thought the promotion's coming back. With no other PPV listed as such, the assumption is it'll be 40 bucks from now on...Like WM bumped the price to 50 for each PPV?

Thats true that it could be a time deal just for the ECW ppv, but I heard that the prices for all the ppv's are going up to 40 dollars. It's not really the end of the world, being only 5 extra dollars, but at the same time, it seems like the prices are getting higher, as the ppv's get worse.

I heard that Marty Jannetty was dead, there were multiple Undeertakers (Not counting Ted's Taker), and that Kane was a transsexual (Someone asked me that yesterday. ).

Rumours are rumours for a reason, and whatever you heard, you have no reason to buy it yet.

Wouldn't that make that rumor gay? Which, in turn, would make it even more gay, possibly in an infinite gay loop?

The GBP is roughly 1.9 dollars US.

You're looking at almost 30 bucks US, not 10.

Still cheaper. Though not as much. 35 bucks is still more than 30, and so is 40.

So 30 bucks is no longer less than 35?

You're replying to a statement of math...It's not about whether the PPV is cheaper, just a qunatitative statement.
