Is Brock Lesnar UFCs real money maker? $$$

Dave Meltzer reported that after Lesnar pulled out of the fight May 12, the show sold less than 1,000 tickets, and probably closer to 500 based on what the gate was then ($2.7 million) and what it ended up being announced as ($2.8 million).
The attendance for Saturday's show, which emanated from Rogers Arena in Vancouver, was announced at 14,685 by the UFC. Meltzer says, with the gate, that would equate to between 10,000-11,000 paid.
"They sold no tickets once Brock pulled out of the card," Meltzer said
