MUMBAI: World wrestling Entertainment (WWE) has announced that its Cyber Sunday interactive pay-per-view sent fans into a record breaking voting frenzy.
About 2.5 million fans cast more than 14.6 million votes for interactive elements in the Cyber Sunday pay-per-view, more than twice as many votes as were cast for last year’s interactive pay-per-view, Taboo Tuesday. In India WWE airs on Ten Sports.
Voting during Cyber Sunday's live broadcast last night got as high as 6,000 votes per minute during the three-hour pay-per-view. The free voting for Cyber Sunday ran from October 16 through the end of yesterday's pay-per-view.
WWE senior VP interactive media Chris Chambers says, “The interest of our fans in deciding the various interactive elements of Cyber Sunday just blew us away.”
WWE.com last month increased monthly unique visitors to more than 17 million. WWE says that it continues to add daily new content and video for fans to view around the clock online.
