    ppv buys..floyd is guaranteed 5 million and a substantial upside on the ppv revenue. last year wrestlemania did 760,000 buys. floyd's 2 ppv's last year did 2.4 and 2.2 million. the wwe knows what it is doing in paying floyd that kind of money.

    if wrestlemania does over 1.5 million buys then the floyd will def get 20 million easily.

    Don't believe any of these dollar amounts you hear, there is no way in hell Floyd will make anywhere near 20 million for wrestlemania.

    It's not, Batista makes about a million for the whole year. The 20 mil figure is bull****.

    He didn't become a billionaire from giving away 20 million dollars for sideshow acts that bring next to nothing in return. Use some common sense here.

    no of course he didn't but he does pay for star power and has pade some performers up to 2 mill a night and some of them show up about 5 times a year plus it boost his ratings every night because a new market tunes in to watch updates on a boxer i.e boxing fans and dancing with the star fans as well as people who recognize him. is that enough common sense for you. i can see clearly you never dealy with the marketing side of business or any type of business for that matter surley his rating will jump as well as merchandise and ppv buy's by this stunt. it's a sure investment like the trump thing last year :hey . you should really think b4 you type:-(

    Holy F*&^ thats a lot of Money! Man I can't believe they'd give that much money to him. I mean do they really think having Mayweather is going to net them an extra 20 mil in buys? I guess when his last two boxing events have done something like 200 mil each in revenue I guess you might be able to see the logic behind this. But still I would have been suprised by 5 mil. 20 Mil, thats crazy!
