Voices of Wrestling

We just got through talking about how soulless Takeover, and the brand overall is. While I have the same concerns as everyone else, let's not act like the shows as is are doing great.

Appreciate the effort. Already saw someone selling suite seats at $100 profit (which is fair).

Contacting the Sears Centre tomorrow to inquire about All Out group tickets, including suite options.

Count me in as interested if this is doable. Edit: Also got a non fan interested too (not that you'd have trouble filling the suite out).

I have wondered why the idea of changing nights as the year goes on hasn't been considered at all. Sure, it would be nice to be in the perfect timeslot all year long, because that's just how wrestling has been, and consistency is important, but I've seen networks move their biggest shows around as n...

I'm still not following how this is a bad reply to make. He clearly is taking blood money in 2019, so it's not unreasonable to believe he'd do the same at a certain price level in the 30s.

It's easy to dismiss the "eh" of Takeover when it's in a designated prelim portion of the live event that no one was rushing to see when coming from other events. And sometimes they'll have big matches there and it adds to the enjoyment, but if not, easy to ignore. And no complaints either, I'm of t...

Just for a different perspective, this isn't an so much of a slam on the lineup, but more that this became a family trip, traveling around is tough, and tourism is an equal priority. Any other year, I'd be trying to crunch in as many shows as possible. Thursday - Late Show with Stephen Colbert tapin...

That New Beginning USA debacle discussion was all over the place, especially on the target of blame and sympathy. It seemed to go between "the lineups were basically what was expected based on the press release, minus a few talents from Japan, so they're reasonably delivering" and "New Japan never s...

Midnight pacific time on NYE isn't exactly a prime time to announce a US based decision. Most people were drunk or asleep. And that's honestly a lesser issue than the lack of content. Making things official shouldn't be dismissed as nothing just because we read news reports. I don't recall All In b...

I really don't get why you're arguing Midnight on New Year's Eve is a bad time when it obviously makes a big statement to start the new year, and even if you went to bed, the news wasn't any less impactful when you read it in the morning.

Can absolutely see them adding shows. Every year has a couple shows added late that are non season pass. I feel they do have a good size roster of non overexposed names, and they've generally been holding the belts. But a common talking point with PWG is they're not stars, and it applies here too. C...

I thought TLC title matches are retrieve the belt?

I'm all for putting others over on your way out, but not so much the idea that once it feels like they're leaving, they must lose every single match.

They noted it's just talent, not a branded show.

I get if a journalist decided not to, but I fully expect journalists to cover an event like this. It doesn't seem right to not cover news as protest. Maybe you mean the dumb wrestling storyline part, but even that is newsworthy to a point. Unless there's another situation of similar attention happen...
