Its a shame the great PPV got little buys.

No doubt that Summerslam number was disappointing for WWE. They had their top three babyfaces (one of whom was and still is getting mega reactions from the crowd) and Brock Lesnar in a well built, well promoted double main event and it did even less buys than the disappointing Summerslam 2011 buyrate.

Oh well. Still one of the greatest Summerslam events ever. It's rare that you get two MOTY candidates on one PPV card like we did this year.
