WWE News: TLC early buy estimate released

WWE has listed an early estimate of 170,000 buys for December's TLC pay-per-view. The number would be down from the 179,000 the event drew in 2011, and the 195,000 drawn in 2010. Read more on the monthly business figures at SNL.com.

Powell's POV: The final number will be released in the quarterly financial report. The TLC pay-per-view was headlined by The Shield vs. Kane, Daniel Bryan, and Ryback in a six-man TLC match. It was originally slated to be C.M. Punk vs. Ryback before it was changed due to Punk undergoing knee surgery.
