The last time I paid for a UFC ppv was Andre orlovski vs Tim Sylvia... I walked away from that ppv knowing it was fixed.

Are you talking about their rubber match at UFC 61? That whole card sucked.

Both were tentative to engage because of what happened in their previous fights and Arlovski broke his foot in the first round.
They fought each other again in 2012 overseas but it ended in a NC after Arlovski soccer-kicked the shite out of him.

Almost $2 a second if you ordered the PPV for this fight. Hope you enjoyed the ones before it...

Wow that's a lot of money... But at least you get an idea of what you are getting with thw WWE... You have no worries about being entertained... It last at least three haours and while wathing [THEY] know who is gona we. We don't. I won't spend $9.99 for it though. That means you have to get the whole network.

Pay-per-view is an awful form of entertainment. I hope we can get rid of it soon or have it be like NFL ticket for boxing or UFC so you basically pay for the season of fights instead of each fight individually.

Also Dana White is a prick. He told all of his fighters to quit thanking God when they win.

White just got worked over by that "fake shite" promotion by responding to Seth's tweets.

Are the monthly PPV's only $9.99? That would be awesome.

If not, then we are not being honest with the argument

WWE "PPV" events are 9.99 now and they are basically moving away from PPV in general.

WWE network cost 9.99/month and they show every PPV on it and you can cancel at any time so the PPVs basically cost 9.99.

$60 to watch two chicks fight for 30 seconds?

I could see a better fight at my nearest dive bar for free.

Wwe is exploring the idea of 4.99 ppv without the wwe network.

Don't think I'll ever understand the appeal of all that "mma" crap. At first I thought it was a fad but unfortunately now it doesn't look like it will ever go away.

Dana White's comments are kinda dumb, because wrestling being fake shouldn't be a big deal in 2015. But Rollins' whole "you've never wrestled" argument used as a barrier to criticism is kind of petty in its own right, really.

I wouldnt say it was petty

injuries in "wrasslin" always occur. yeah the outcome is predetermined and kicks and punches are not real. but all the suplexes and such take a toll on the body.

anytime someone wrestles brock lesnar now they get banged up

Also, they are on the road 300+ days.

The late rowdy roddy piper once wrestled 91 nights in a row.
