WWE released the latest numbers for the 2012 WWE TLC Pay Per View that took place at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

The event featured John Cena vs. Dolph Ziggler, as well as The Shield vs. Team Hell No andn Ryback. The WWE has estimated about 170,000 buys. This is down slightly from the 179,000 buys that WWE TLC 2011 drew.

WWE Survivor Series drew an estimated 212,000 buys, so this is a big step down for WWE heading into 2013.

Pretty good buyrate considering that CM Punk wasn't on the show.

CM Punk main eventing without Cena on the card - 179k
John Cena main eventing without Punk on the card - 170k

CM GOAT.

Yeah, WWE title wasn't on the line, so not a bad buyrate I guess.

Wow, the Survivor Series buys plummeted this year. I wonder when the last time a ppv had that big of a drop % wise.

That's what they get for making survivor series a pointless ppv the past few years

**BANKSY** · 01-30-2013, 09:20 AM

No Punk so the buyrate sunk.

December is one of the worst times to try and sell a pay-per-view. They should just cut the TLC PPV out altogether and go straight from Survivor Series to the Royal Rumble.

**Gamblor** · 01-30-2013, 01:22 PM

OMGSH CM PUNK'S A BIGGER DRAW THAN CENA! IT'S OFFICIAL! MARK IT DOWN ON YOUR CALENDERS EVERYBODY THE DAY WE FOUND OUT THE TRUTH! OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!

I agree. I also think they should get rid of Elimination Chamber too.
