Could WrestleMania make it on Free Network TV
Just wondering what if Wrestle-mania was free Network TV could and would t pull the ratings?????
Raw usually generates 5 million viewers, Smackdown over 2 million, usually Wrestlemania comes up under 1 million buys!!!
I think it would be cool to see an wrestling even like this on Free TV instead of PPV!!!!!

really it kinda depends. lets say it would be on NBC since they own USA Network. the rating probably wouldn't go higher than 10 mill...to be perfectly honest they'd be lucky if it got anywhere near that. 10 mill is alot but even with ads and big commercials it probably wouldn't = as much money as they'd make on w/ Mania on PPV.
so yes...it would get WWE pretty high ratings, compared to normal, but no it more than likely wouldn't = as much money...and at the end of the day thats all McMahon cares about. i will say this though hypothetically speaking if this did happen and Mania got 10 million viewers it would make it 1 of the higher rated shows.

TNA past few PPVs and certain WWE PPVs as did Wrestlemania just seem to be waste of time buying them..... Why not wait till they come out on DVD and you can get the extras included?????

Unlikely, but they should test it for a year.
Maybe WM 30 and then decide if it's worth the change or not.
