-- WWE's latest international tour may end up being the most profitable in company history. WWE has been running two shows everyday throughout the tour and ticket prices for those shows are expensive to say the least as WWE always marks them up. The Raw & SmackDown/ECW tapings both drew $1 million apiece, which is more than WCW ever drew at the gate for a single show. Merchandise is selling really well too.
