Zbyszko/WWE, PPV Buyrates Revealed, SD!, More
As noted yesterday here on the site, former AWA world champion Larry Zbyszko recently contacted WWE. According to various reports, Zbyszko was seeking a legends contract and work as an announcer. Zbyszko is no longer apart of TNA. If you were to ask me, I wouldn't expect to see Larry in WWE. He lashed out at Vince numerous times several years back and went as far as to file a lawsuit against WWE. Never say never though.
The Cyber Sunday PPV did an early estimate of around 233,000 buys with about 150,000 of those being domestic. The 2005 Taboo Tuesday PPV did 248,000. That is pretty sad that a Tuesday PPV beat out a tradition Sunday event.
Based on Nielsen's Fast National numbers, Smackdown last night scored a 2.6 rating. That is down from last week.
WWE stocks closed the week at 16.45, a 0.55% increase over yesterday's closing. The day's range was 16.25 – 16.63.
That'll do it for me today. Have a good rest of the weekend. NFL time for me!
