Update on SummerSlam Buyrate, Hogan-Michaels Tops Benoit-Orton

As more numbers come in from SummerSlam, Hulk Hogan and Shawn Michaels should be expecting quite a pay off. WWE’s corporate site listed the first estimate at about 525,000 buys. So the final figure should be around the 600,000 range.

This year’s SummerSlam estimate tops last year’s by about 150,000 buys. Last year’s event was headlined by Chris Benoit vs. Randy Orton.

Outside of WrestleMania PPV's, this year's SummerSlam buyrate comes in third behind Royal Rumble '03 and '04 over the last four years.
