I think NBC still wants Smackdown, but they are already paying 3 times more for Raw, so they probably just decided not to go for Smackdown on top of that. If WWE doesn't get any legit offers for Smackdown, I could see NBC coming in with a lower offer to move it back to SyFy.

I gotta think though Fox Sports is the likely landing spot since that is going to be Fox's business going forward.

As for PPV revenue, that hasn't been their main money maker since probably when TNN gave them a big contract to move Raw there in 2000
