I'm only getting a 10% cut from TBS as is, and I'm sitting on 23mil in cash (and we're talking maybe 6mil to break free of TBS entirely). I'm getting a sweet 30% for my new SkySports deal to show WCW Saturday Night in prime time across Europe though <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>
Good to know that I can still reach max size without max coverage - that's the most important thing. In that case it probably makes sense (and certainly makes sense from a roleplaying perspective) to stick with TBS.</p><p> </p><p>
I figure when I hit a realistic year (around 2000) I'll break ties with TBS and go Internet, since that's something that potentially could have happened then.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p>
I am playing a 1996 mod as WWF. I had a similar situation at the start of 1997 where I could get a deal with FOX but leaving the remaining 1 year contract with USA would have cost $5.5mil. Well, the deal I was able to get with FOX gave me $900k PER SHOW (RAW) and 10% of the ad revenue to WWF. It was a no brainer for me as I would be able to recoop that $5.5 in six month -- by the way my deal with USA gave me nothing.</p><p> </p><p>
Look at the deals of what you are negotiating (how much the broadcaster will pay per show and how much ad revenue % you can get without having to pay anything -- also, the longer the deal, the more money you will usually get per show).</p><p> </p><p>
I hope that helps.</p>
