TSN reports that last week the NBA finals were the top 7 watched shows on cable TV.
The WWE was 8th and 9th.
Vince's tv ratings play a big card here. THey have to provide the show to honor their committment to their networks. This is not a simple Dora the Explorer type of thing that is being pushed out of the way. There is loads of money at stake.
McMahon is a real dink (as per Brett Hart's book) and will milk this for every last nickle. I can even see him sending a bunch of wrestlers to the doors of the venue next week just to push the envelope. I'll bet a few bucks that at some point this week there will be clips of WWE wrestlers trying to get into the Nuggett's practice facility or something like that.
