The final numbers for this year's WrestleMania, with late buys, wasn't quite as bad as first indicated, and really not far off the 2011 show, and that's with the price increase. With 1,104,000 worldwide buys, it would be the fourth most purchased pro wrestling PPV of all-time, and by far the highest grossing event in the history of the industry.
Extreme Rules – 245,000 buys total (up from the initial 231,000 prelim number) with 137,000 domestic.
Payback – 198,000 buys total (up from the initial 186,000 prelim number) with 108,000 domestic.
Final numbers still aren’t in for Money in the Bank (199,000 prelim), Summerslam (296,000 prelim) and Night of Champions (175,000 prelim). And early word on the October shows domestically is that Battleground did poorly while Hell in a Cell looks to be up from the previous two years.

Maybe there’s hope for SS/NOC yet if those numbers also end up higher than their prelim, although there's just as much chance of them staying even or going down. We shall see.
