EZE85 Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 just to toss this one out as I dont know if its been mentioned though I'll be suprised if it hasnt in passing; PPV Deals could be totally overhauled to be more of a challenge and more realistic. Instead of 'here you go, host PPV's whenever you like' you could negotiate contracts to be awarded a NUMBER of PPV's in a year. This way you better simulate the biz. You get an initial deal maybe for 1 or 3 PPV's in a year and at the TIME OF CONTRACT you schedule the date of those events (potentially presenting you with a booking headache later on). Next time you negotiate a deal your success with them could be reflected and you could get to have 4 to 6 PPV's. Then you get up to the holy grail of 12 PPVs. Likewise small PPV carriers can offer you weekly PPV model. Or even the big ones can but they take a much larger share of the buyrate off you. So you have to weigh up EXPOSURE (pop gain) w/ Costs. Like TNA you could end up running at deficits but benefit from the media exposure. Then sign a future PPV deal to go to the monthly ones which give you the largest share of buyrates. A sliding scale of the buyrates that the provider takes off it would also add another level of detail. Principally though its the whole # of PPVs that this idea is about. Seems daft to suddenly get access to as many PPV's as you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanielW4444 Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 theres already enough negotiating in the game as it is. I wish some of it could be turned off just for simplification. Not saying your idea is bad, it pretty good, but if Adam keeps adding more and more "negotiate for this & that" stuff, you'll get bogged down in the game and lose interest.
