Great card, but realistically you can't used up so many of your Title Fights for one event, even a PPV.

I streamed the first one and enjoyed it, so I will buy the next one.
Bellator would still have the following for their "Season"
10 weeks...
Tournaments (run 7 instead of 6)
-Week 1 - Curran vs Frodo + Tourney
-Week 2 - The 2-3 most popular tournaments
-Week 3 - Shlemenko vs Hasley/Cooper + Tourney
-Week 4 - Lima vs Koreshkov/McDonough + Tourney
-1 week break
-Week 5 - "Names" Riggs/Amoussou, Beltran/Vegh, Groves/D.Cramer, L.Johnson/MightyMo + Weaker Tournament Semis
-Week 6 - Stronger Tournament Semis + 1 Headliner
-Week 7 - Stronger Tournament Semis + 1 Headliner
-1 week break
-Week 8 - Curran vs Weichel + whatever
-Week 9 - Tourney Finals
-Week 10 - Tourney Finals
-Week 11 - PPV
Wouldnt be a horrible season IMO. They would need to make some solid tournaments though...

Maybe not, but you have to let things build back up for another PPV. Hope that the stars align.
Newton-Rampage is a nice fight. Alvarez-Brooks, as the next Title Fight seems only fair. But it's more a matter of the "names" and less so a matter of "competition" when it comes to making a PPV card in Bellator.
The basis for their PPV was the Alvarez-Chandler Trilogy... and the 'bad blood' between Rampage and King Mo... plus Tito making his promotional debut.
Remember that Tito-Rampage was supposed to headline Bellator's first PPV (in Nov), before injuries forced them to cancel/postpone it. When Bellator has their 2nd PPV, Tito has to be involved. Best case scenario, Tito vs Rampage for the Title.

It would never, ever happen. Time limits, practicality... but it'd be worth the money and much more convincing to buy than their last effort(s).
I think Rampage vs Newton and Tito vs King Mo sells as well as Rampage vs Tito... personally.
I will bite.
Why not?
What would you need in a PPV to buy it? What types of PPVs have you bought in the past?

It depends on the card...and they don't need to go ape shit trying to stack it as long as the main even and co-main are good, and they simply have good, exciting fighters and matchups the rest of the way. Their last show was a lot of good stuff for not that much money.

Hell no.
This needs to stay on free TV.
I still don't believe that 100K.

That card will never happen. We'll get one, maybe two, title fights and then some freak-show crap like we got on that last one. I also don't think alot of people will ever buy a Bellator PPV unless the price comes way down.
