WWE Hell in a Cell 2012, headlined by WWE Champion CM Punk vs. Ryback, drew approximately 200,00 buys. 152,000 buys (76%) were domestic and 48,000 were international (24%).

This year’s show, which had a 5-week buildup following September’s Night of Champions PPV, had a buyrate that was in between the prior two years. HIAC 2011 drew 190,000 buys, while HIAC 2010 did 210,000 buys.

Kinda shits in the face who say CM Punk is not a draw, also a great number for Ryback.

It's not low at all lol. There's a difference between tuning into a free show for a quick watch and spending $40+ (I think it's that over there, not sure) to watch it on Sunday. 200k is strong.

Average number for the PPV, and considering Ryback was in the ME for the first time that's a very good thing.

Used to be 40 dollars for SD and 45 for HD. Then it was 45 for SD and 50 for HD. Now it's 50 for sd and 55 for HD and Big ppvs are 60-65

Wow. UK get them for £15 ($23.9) and get every other PPV free lol. So we pay for half of them and get the rest free. Must suck to be American.
