    Re: Wrestling.com sells for $500,000

    Nice sale, and not surprising with the popularity of pro wrestling.
    Actually, it is surprising that someone would want to sell such a great, generic keyword, even at that price.

    Re: Wrestling.com sells for $500,000

    I wonder what the type-in traffic is on that puppy.

    I believe the seller owns body.com as well, if Im not mistaken. Among others. Nice portfolio to develop or unload.

    Re: Wrestling.com sells for $500,000

    After looking at their site they have some excellent domains, even better than wrestling - with more mass appeal. So I guess they are focusing on their top names and using sales like this to help fund it.

    I agree. I don't think that's being bold.

    The only thing with Wrestling.com is it's a more popular sport at the participant level (there's high school wrestling, but not boxing).

    Re: Wrestling.com sells for $500,000

    Wrestling.com was purchased by the owner/moderator of another domain forum. This is big media news imo. I'd like to hear about some major network coverage (CNN, ABC, FOX, CBS, NBC) as it is an exciting and signifcant sale around a hugely popular interest.

    But football.com and soccer.com are already established premium domains with attached businesses that i doubt the owners would be willing to part with.

    Re: Wrestling.com sells for $500,000

    3942 overture with ext! Diamond .com only 1831 with ext.

    Way too cheap!!! Should have waited another couple of years imo.

    The other .coms that they own are amazing. Brazil .com would be enough, but there are more.
