WWE MONEY IN THE BANK PPV UPDATE/CORRECTION

My initial story on the Money in the Bank PPV buyrate looks to have been incorrect and I apologize for that error.

Based on the graph WWE released for their PPV buyrates in their latest key indicator, the Money in the Bank number was listed as 265,000 buys.

However, another breakdown in the estimates lists July PPV buys at just 185,000 buys. The other buys incorporated into the graph are being credited to Wrestlemania 27 PPV purchases that came in after the last key indicator was published by the company.

Now, as to the question as to why WWE would list those Wrestlemania buys as purchases for the Money in the Bank PPV on their graph, I can't begin to explain that one. I reached out for a clarification early yesterday but as of this morning, have not received a response. So, if and until we do, I wanted to make the note. If and when we get clarification, I will update.
