    I have not followed them at all really since like 2013, around that time. I know they did some events in other countries but it seems like half their PPVs are being held overseas, not just shows. When did this happen?

    I guess it is, but when did they start really pushing it? Last I watched, they would do some shows and maybe one PPV overseas and now it looks like a huge chunk of their schedule is booked outside the US.

    They follow the money and trends and with the new merger with Endeavor(UFC) doing more PPV internationally is just inevitable.

    Oh damn, that went through? I heard about it but never looked into it. Who actually owns what now?

    I am used to seeing these mergers in other types of corporations, not so much sports entertainment!
