At one time the WWE ppv cost $50 where I lived than I think they lowered it to $35. For me the proper price to pay for one would be $15. What would be a reasonable price for you?

wen paid £30 here for wrestlemania last year, so we had a wrestlemania party charged everyone £2 to come and what we made over the price of the ppv we did a sweeps with (person who predicted the most correct results got the left over money)

Me and my friends use to do that when I was younger. It was actually alot better and cheaper since I had my friends with me to watch it.

No price would be a reasonable price to me, because I am not a fan of WWE, nor of any pay per view programming. Sometimes the cost for the tv is the same as going out to see the event (or movie) in person, and so I'd rather not see it on my tv. I do understand the convenience of it, don't get me wrong. It's just that I would avoid paying for anything like that. I guess I'm just "cheap" that way.

I don't think your cheap for not paying for ppv. I don't find ppv as entertaining as it once was because I got digital cable and theres so many channels that theres no problem finding something to watch.

LOL.. .oh, I'm cheap alright. I don't even have digital or satellite. I'm on basic cable, and it will be a long while before I go up any tiers.

The only ppv that cost $50 is wrestlemania. I also think that $15 is a reasonable price for ppvs then I would order everyone of them since its very expensive all ppvs are. And I doubt theyll lower there ppvs anytime soon if anything theyll raise them within a year or two to $40 or $45 which would suck big time and probally loose busness.

Yeah Wrestlemania was the one I saw for $50. I guess because its 4 hours long.

hello my fellow myLotter, the usual pay per view price for WWE is 34.95 where i live. the only pay per view that is near 50 dollars is Wrestlemania. as for me i think pay per view should be at the most 24.95. happy posting!

I haven't ordered a ppv in for ever, but the last time I did it was some where around $40/$45 bucks. I don't see ordering ppv's for a few reason and since there are other ways to get it. I can say this tho. WWE's ppv's are cheaper then boxing ppv's and the UFC's ppvs's.

I have not ordered a wwe ppv in around 4 years. Its just not as good as it was but I still watch Raw and sometimes Smackdown.

I'll catch Raw and Smackdown every now and again...but for the most part I'm ether to busy to watch or watching ether older tapes/dvds or watcing matches from Japan or even catching up on what rugby matches I've missed. I just can't get in to the WWE much any more.

I honestly do not think that the cost they charge for pay per views is worth the product. Yes you can see some awesome matches at the time for the cost, however if you wait until the next night you can see highlights of the same match. Granted most of your friends will be rubbing it into your face that they seen it and you did not, but is it worth shelling out your hard earned money? I think not. Even at that stage you can then get onto WWE.com the next day and pre-order the DVD or go to Walmart about a month later and it will be out on DVD typically for 14-24 dollars. Which is significantly cheaper than the PPV cost. Not only that once you purchase the DVD you will be able to then watch it whenever you want and not have to worry about interruptions.

I remember Wrestlemania 23 being shown here in my country at the movie theaters, ticket costs 300php or $8 I think it's fair enough.

Ive never gone to a ppv but my friend likes going. He said his cyber sunday tickest cost around 50$ or something. I would say that's a reasonable price seeing that its an epic moment in wrestling history
