Speculation on WWE Roadblock Continuing the Trend of Declining Fan Interest in WWE PPVs, News on Poor Roadblock Attendance, More

December 26, 2016

The most recent issue of The Wrestling Observer, found at F4WOnline.com, speculates that this year’s WWE Roadblock PPV is continuing the trend of declining fan interest in WWE PPV events, likely due to the company holding two events per month.

The interest appeared stronger for Roadblock compared to WWE TLC this year, however Roadblock only generated 100,000 searches on Google, which is about half the usual level for a non big-four PPV. This year’s WWE TLC PPV didn’t even register in the Google search category.

Additionally, WWE Roadblock drew only 8,000 fans, which was seen as a disappointment considering WWE was selling two-for-one tickets the week of the event.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
