Is promoting three PPVs a mistake
Do you think that ROH too on more then they could chew by promoting "Young Wolves Rising" and "Showdown In The Sun" at the same time ( Which ammounts to three PPVs). I think they have done a good job under the circumstances. But it does seem like they are trying to spread themselves a little thin by promoting three different events that occur in such a small timeframe from each other. It makes it harder for the consumer to proccess all this. So I wonder if adding the extra PPV will end up being counter productive.

I think you're over valuing the iPPV concept. In essence, the 10th Anniversary Show and all of the subsequent iPPV's all end up on DVD. Adding these shows to iPPV, just adds an additional revenue source for the company.

Simple answer is no. To me it makes the company looks busier promoting big cards.

Nope, 3 IPPV's for a whopping $30.00? How can that be a mistake?

Re: Is promoting three PPVs a mistake
Not at all.
The 10th anniversary show is a big deal, for all fans old and new and the way they've booked the TV show it makes really good sense heading into the event. The top 4 matches (title matches plus Steen-Jacobs) are all built up really, really well.
Transitioning with the outcome of that event into a compact 4 week build for the "Showdown" shows should be smooth and pretty easy. Again, some bouts are already announced and the TV has been set up to putthe proper focus on those events.
I cannot see anyone who is regularly watching the ROH TV show not being drawn to and interested in the 3 iPPV's and for under $30, how can you pass that up?

Re: Is promoting three PPVs a mistake
For us in the UK its a ittle over £6 a show, which is a ridiculous bargain, the more the merrier for me as Ill always order and it keeps me up to date with the product.
Ill always get the DVDs, it would take a truly awful show where nothing significant happens for me not to buy a DVD
Im actually really pumped for the 10th anni show, not for the card but also to see ROH reach a Super Duper, King Kong, Mega Mega Milestone!

Re: Is promoting three PPVs a mistake
I gave up on the wwf/e back in 2001 after they gobbled up ECW. And I watched TNA for a little while but couldn't stand double J putting himself over week after week. And then Hogan showing up just made it worseGardenStateSaint wrote:You haven't watched either company in years?

I wouldn't do it all the time, but for the 10YA run into the Mania' weekend shows, I'm all about it.

Re: Is promoting three PPVs a mistake
Oh don't get me wrong. I'm excited about the three shows and think they have done a pretty good job building the three shows. I'm just worried about the casual fans. Especially since they are still so early in their run with Sinclair. I'll be getting all three shows myself though.
Re: Is promoting three PPVs a mistake
Three quality shows for less than half the price of mania alone! Not sure of the exact price now but mania was up to $65 when I stopped watching wwe a few years ago.
