Jim Ross On If The Invasion PPV Exceeded Financial Expectations

on

During a recent episode of Grilling JR, Jim Ross revealed that the Invasion PPV exceeded what were at the time lofty expectations from a financial standpoint. Here’s what he had to say:

It was surprisingly good. We all thought it would be solid, let’s say, but it was more than solid. It was outstanding. I think the reason is people wanted to see something new, and it was a new concept in that respect where two brands are dueling. So it was a successful show. I remember it fondly. But I can’t dwell on what could’ve been, should’ve been, or how we could’ve followed up and done better. The bottom line is always gonna be we didn’t have all the players. Somebody is gonna say, ‘Well, why didn’t you get them?’ Because they were under contract making a lot of money to do nothing. They were able to heal their wounds, and none of them were spring chickens. I was pleasantly surprised it do so well.
