Internal WWE Memo Touts Success Of WWE Survivor Series Wargames

WWE has been optimistic internally about the performance of WWE Survivor Series WarGames.

Fightful Select has learned that WWE executives received a memo on November 30 detailing the following about the PPV:

⁃ It claimed the most-viewed Survivor Series on record, jumping 46% vs. 2021’s edition of the show

⁃ The best in-venue merchandise sales in the event’s history, up 20% from last year’s Survivor Series.

⁃ The live gate was highest ever in Boston and for Survivor Series, which Triple H noted at the post-show press conference.

⁃ Fan enjoyment rating popped 48% vs. last year. We aren’t sure how this is measured internally within WWE or the metrics associated.

⁃ It also touted (though none were on Tout) that social media video views were up year over year, with the TikTok of Roman Reigns sending Sami Zayn into the match garnering 13 million views alone.

We were also told that the Undertaker one man shows have been a big winner for WWE and they will continue for WWE PLE weekends as deemed necessary.
