WWE planning to do away with PPVs

By Scott Keith on 21 March 2013

…at some point in the future, anyway.

Well, the thing is that if they do get the network off the ground and they DO get, say, 2 million subscribers or as an outside dream 4 million, they'll be able to burn money instead of coal to heat Titan Towers and have enough left over to eat money sandwiches for work every day for the rest of their lives. WWE will literally be all profit and they can tell the PPV industry and eventually USA to go fuck themselves once and for all.

Now, obviously I give this network a 0.0001% chance of launching and an even slimmer chance of getting anything above the paltry 100,000 or so subs that the Classics on Demand channel has, but absolutely there is money here. I just don't think it's attainable. But hey, I know nothing about the TV industry outside of what I read, so maybe they can pull it off. I hope they do, because it would be pretty awesome to pay $13 a month and get all the PPVs and old Nitros and stuff.
