I would’ve opted for more expensive tickets if my wife didn’t just have a birthday. Damn her.

Jordan 02-11-2019 04:17 PM

I wish they didn't feel compelled to have a large entrance that blocks off seats. I don't get the logic behind that.

Malfeitor 02-11-2019 04:21 PM

Gotta make it look legit, I suppose.

Fignuts 02-11-2019 04:29 PM

Yeah, cant hype this up as much as they have, and go with a dinky little curtain with strobe lights. Gotta go full stage.

I hope they've got a awesome plan B in the works.

The source seems a bit sketchy but current rumor going around the net hints at AEW planning an October date for the launch of their potential tv show.

Same source also hinted the real launch of the company won't happen till this September since that is when the next All In event is scheduled to occur.

It's gonna be Switcblade and Okada. I dunno how I feel. Well I'm not excited but whatever.

Jordan 02-11-2019 07:41 PM

I wonder if they will run the Jacksonville Stadium this summer. They said they would go there for the next event.

Just in time for Ambrose to show up

May 25 - Double Or Nothing at the MGM Grand Arena, Las Vegas

June 2019 - Unspecified show (believed to be in USA)

July 2019 - Unnamed show in Jacksonville, Florida with a portion of the proceeds going to anti-gun crime charities

August 2019 - Royal Albert Hall, London, England

September 2019 - All Out - the official sequel to All In and the full launch of the brand prior to TV tapings beginning. We understand that while not yet confirmed, this is again likely to take place at the Sears Center in Chicago

October 2019 - Weekly television starts
Found this schedule for AEW going around. Folks saying there are Proms booked all month at Royal Albert Hall so that may not work. Also the place only holds around 5,000 so we will see.

Good job. The re-sale market is blowing up. Cheapest seat is 112 on Stubhub.

Jordan 02-11-2019 10:24 PM

"ALL OUT" wow... okay Cody has his dad's marketing bug but I think it's a lot better.

I love the PPV names so far. ALL IN, DOUBLE OR NOTHING (in Vegas, are you kidding), and then a year after it all started and the night it all official begins AEW goes ALL OUT once again at the Sears Center. Omg. I love it.

RP 02-11-2019 10:25 PM

The end of Fighting With The Family is Paige /sighing in relief after she won the NXT title and the eating the cum of Brad Maddox off her belt and flashing a huge cum eating grin at the camera.

Malfeitor 02-11-2019 10:29 PM

The cheapest seat I saw for my section on StubHub was like 545 or some shit. Ridiculous.

Jordan 02-11-2019 10:31 PM

Okay RP.

Rez was saying in the Raw thread that it would be good to snag some of the big name stars. With the rumors abounding of potential signings with Goldberg, Dave Batista, CM Punk and others and also the possibility of a summer stadium show in Jacksonville. I think a great hook to sell a show like that would be Batista vs Omega and Goldberg vs Jericho. I think a match with Batista and Omega would possibly get some mainstream press and they could build it easy as the big leaguer coming in to walk over the flavor of the month for a big pay day, all the while the cool and confident BEST BOUT MACHINE holds his own with his universe of fan at his side until the fateful showdown in the sun filled with awesome power spots and lots of rehearsal. With Goldberg and Jericho you have a real like decades long feud to bring to surface. With Jericho's recent abusive drunk gimmick he could really wring the cloth on Goldberg and push him to go over the edge live on PPV.

Jordan 02-11-2019 10:34 PM

Also I think that they should give Jericho a screw job win at Double or Nothing. He's had a lot of losses lately and if they have paid out like he said they did, and they did, then AEW should keep him strong for the future. Omega can easily recover from a loss from Jericho. He could even be stronger if done correctly.

Yeah I’m thinking Jericho wins and then faces Hangman while PAC ties it up with Omega or something.

I'm curious to learn more about these June and July shows. Hmmm.

XL 02-12-2019 02:30 PM

Could be a good move to start their TV in the traditional “fuck it, we’ll just coast until January” time period.

slik 02-12-2019 03:59 PM

Except WWE has moved the "fuck it, we'll just coast" mantra to being year-round, so they'll really be good to go whenever.

Mr. Nerfect 02-13-2019 04:53 AM

I think Omega should win at DoN. He’s your ace right now and he’s never had any US exposure. He’s basically “homegrown,” in the sense that he’s never been in WWE. Even if they get AJ Styles, CM Punk and/or Randy Orton, those acts are more loaning their star power to the brand so you can build up and around your Kenny Omegas. Omega losing could be a big deal. I don’t think you start him off with one.

Besides, I like the idea of Jericho being this giant free agent who signs, and acts all babyface until this younger guy from Winnipeg signs and beats him in his first match, immediately adding wrinkles Jericho needs to iron out. Jericho can slime wins from Hangman Page and/or Cody. And if they don’t secure any of these rumoured big names, Omega can be the one guy Jericho is not greater than.

slik 02-13-2019 12:33 PM

The rest of the tickets went on sale.

Sold out in 4 minutes.

Malfeitor 02-13-2019 01:53 PM

I got fucking lucky. A lot of my friends tried to get tickets and got jack shit.

Mr. Nerfect 02-13-2019 07:36 PM

I think this will be a trend for the next few shows at least. Keep a steady hand and enjoy the ride.

Blonde Moment 02-13-2019 08:24 PM

This is a good thing and if it keeps up maybe it will entice the Wwe to actually make some real changes

Mr. Nerfect 02-14-2019 01:32 AM

This is the first same-day sellout for pro-wrestling in Las Vegas, with tickets sold to every state and Puerto Rico, as well as 9 other countries.

Great interview w/ Chris Jericho and Tony Kahn about plans for AEW.

So surreal that The Undertaker is going to be at what is essentially their fan-fest.

Sting, too. Maybe they can play rockem sockem robots

Mr. Nerfect 02-15-2019 12:15 AM

Great Khan interview with Jericho. He sounds like a smart and pretty down-to-earth and honest guy. He’s got A LOT of knowledge and it was cool to hear the Midnight Express, Jim Cornette, Ultimo Dragon and Buddy Landell get shouts.

The “weird” things to me were hearing him describe the women like the cruiserweights in WCW. It’s like...WWE is pushing them as the main event (even if it is PR spin and they’re not really banking on them). I’d like to know more about what he means by that. I think it’s a healthier position for most of the female talent they’ve got (I don’t really feel “Britt Baker: Main Eventer”), but I feel it’s the one time he felt like he was putting too much pure hype promoting it like “something never done before.” Like he’s saying this division is going to be really different, but how.

I fucking love the inclusion of Aja Kong and Tony did say they are going to get “more diverse,” which I hope means they are going to look at the sorts of talent WWE wouldn’t really touch because they still have beauty requirements. But women’s wrestling has been a focus in a few places for quite a while now.

And while what he says about not wanting to grab everyone makes sane and logical sense, I’m a little disappointed it kind of dampened my excitement for a mass exodus. I still want Moxley, Styles, Nakamura, Orton, The Usos, The Hardys and Brock Lesnar over there for perception’s sake. They don’t need to be on every show and can mix up with other people. They’d bring freshness to roster, since they are so WWE entrenched.

Nothing Taker does will ever be more surreal than this...




Dude goes on a date with his wife in full Taker gear, while she eye bangs Kevin Love in the background lol

Mr. Nerfect 02-16-2019 09:41 PM

Haha, Taker’s such a weird dude. I’ve thought about this for ages, but there’s just something odd about the dude. I’m not making fun, but he doesn’t seem to fit the profile of other “tough guy” wrestlers. He’s spent most of his career putting on excessive make-up and pretending to be a zombie with utter sincerity. So much about him isn’t really known. And he’s evidently got terrible fashion sense (Survivor Series ‘00). It’s like there’s a little kid or drama nerd competing with the Texas guy who likes MMA and Jack Daniels in there.
