How do we know this? I mean seriously, what is the fact here?

Razzamajazz 03-31-2011 12:28 PM

it's an internet rumor, so therefore it's a fact

Jordan 03-31-2011 12:28 PM

I mean couldn't this rumor of WWE not selling 93 thousand have been started by say... a jealous southern promotion who was just blown out of the water?

NormanSmiley 03-31-2011 12:29 PM

If your going to make a thread to prove "facts" then show some proof. Everyone in WWE says 93 thousand, that's how many tickets were sold before the day of the event. That's what the Wrestlemania doc says, but come on show me some legit believable proof that your right. Why is this even debated? Why would WWE lie and say 93,000 instead of 70,000? Plus look at 70,000 at any other Wrestlemania compared to the Silverdome's 93,000 it's quite different.

Fact: Hulk Hogan is the reason 90% watched wrestling as a kid. Unless you came in during the second 90s boom. Then Stone Cold takes the spot.

I was a Hogan fan even growing up in the 90s. The Piper/Hogan feud tape was one of the things that really hooked me on wrestling. And I loved Hollywood Hogan.

Wrestling is a martial art that uses grappling type techniques such as clinch fighting, throws and takedowns, joint locks, pins and other grappling holds. A wrestling bout is a physical competition, between two (occasionally more) competitors or sparring partners, who attempt to gain and maintain a superior position. There are a wide range of styles with varying rules with both traditional historic and modern styles. Wrestling techniques have been incorporated into other martial arts as well as military hand-to-hand combat systems.

WWE exaggerates most of their attendance numbers. Off the top of my head, they said Wrestlemania 18 was about 68000 when it was really about 61000.

It's all about pain and who's gonna' claim it....

The Show Off 03-31-2011 07:30 PM

Lawrence Taylor and Sid are the only two men to main event every Wrestlemania they've wrestled in.

Alberto Del Rio has a chance to make this list if his match goes on last... not bloody likely though.
(Not a fact)

To include LT in that statement makes you look like a retard. Sid, sure, but LT was only in one Wrestlemania, say "every" Wrestlemania is plural, meaning they were in more than one.

Dude, don't be a douche bag, I just included Lawrence Taylor because I wanted to be as accurate as possible. The usage of the word "they've" means "they have" the "they" in this case means Sid and Lawrence Taylor. And "they" have main evented 3 Wrestlemanias. (Sid: Wrestlemania VIII & Wrestlemania 13), (Lawrence Tayler: Wrestlemania XI)

Are you happy now? Have I added all the information you request.

Stop being such a pedantic ass.
