I can almost guarantee WrestleMania out draws this PPV. The Royal Rumble buyrate increased from last year so the interest is there. WM did 960,000 last year, 1 mil in 2009, 1 mil in 2008, and 1.2 mil in 2007. Even if it drops the UFC card will have to get at least 800,000 to have a chance but given the awesome WM card with Taker/HBK II an Bret/Vince it should hit 1 million. Just cant see GSP/Hardy coming even close, I see 5-600,000 buys for the UFC. Im hittin up a sportsbar for UFC an ordering WM at home.
