We have the most recent WWE PPV buyrate estimates. No Mercy did about 250,000 buys, which was down from last year but up from 2006 (when the company did single branded shows). Cyber Sunday did about 160,000 buys. The Survivor Series did about 325,000 buys. Both of those were down from 2006 and 2007. The numbers are also down more in North American buyrates over the last few years. Emerging PPV markets outside of the continent have helped the overall numbers stay higher. WWE is hoping to maintain growth abroad to offset in drop in domestic purchases.
