The Associated Press published a story this morning that included new details regarding Vince McMahon's "Million Dollar Mania" giveaway. Here are the details:
- The promotion begins next week on RAW (June 9).
- For a chance to win a part (but not all) of the $1 million, viewers must pre-register on WWE.com and then watch the beginning of "Raw" each week to receive a special code, which viewers must tell McMahon if he calls them during the live broadcast.
- The code will change each week of the promotion and will not be revealed until the beginning of each episode.
- The cash will be given away as part of a "lengthy promotional sweepstakes", McMahon and the WWE told The Associated Press.
- "People can view this as my own version of an economic stimulus plan to benefit our viewers," McMahon told The Associated Press.

Basically, its all about ratings, he wants as many people as possible to tune in so they see the code in the hope they will keep the show on and boost the ever decreasing ratings!
Here is a thought Vince, use those millions to invest in better quality wrestlers/entertainers and boost the main event divisions in ALL brands, get top quality writers involved as well and focus on giving other guys like Kennedy the Hardys and Punk more mic training with top promo coaches
