The Wrestling Channel threatened by staff at WWE show...

Tonight at the WWE event at Wembley, TWC staff were physically threatened by WWE security for giving away free TWC & wrestling merchandise to fans. The same thing happened last night at Sheffield.
TWC teams were outside these events giving away free t-shirts, bags, mouse mats, TWC stress balls, pens, caps, etc to wrestling fans, and were told to leave immediately or it would "get nasty". A huge group of wrestling fans accumulated (looking for their free merchandise) and this only aggravated them more.

Needless to say, we didn't want to lower ourselves to that level and we left quietly. Apologies to fans at these events who didn't get their free wrestling gifts from TWC (we gave away over 2000+ items) - but you might catch us at some of the other events this weekend. All we were trying to do was give away free gifts to wrestling fans (thus increasing awareness of the channel) in a public place.

Some people... :roll:

Ye I got me a wrestling channel t-shirt last night :D Something to sleep in I suppose.

"Needless to say, we didn't want to lower ourselves to that level and we left quietly"

They ran away like little girls.

"If we were asked nicely to leave (something along the lines of: Sorry guys, this is private property, please move along) that would be absolutely acceptable - but that's not what happened. These guys were about 260lbs and didn't seem up for a discussion. "

You don't wanna worry about minor details like that. No Surrender.

They should have offered them TWC merchandise...perhaps a stress ball.

LMAO.

That would have been awesome. Maybe put flower petals on their batons too. :D

Myself and Mike will be on the hunt for our free TWC Merchandise :cool:

Does this mean that if I ever go to a WWE event, there's no chance of me ever getting a free Yorkie?

Bollocks. I was there and they were giving out leaflets freely. There was next to no security outside the building up until 20 mins before bell time. I didn't get in until then and I saw them with my own eyes. Maybe it's because there was 2000+ leaflets on the road outside Wembley Arena that they got upset.
