Any of you ever went to the wrestling event alone? Just found out that my friends cannot make it to the MSG show tonight and I have extra ticket.

On top of that #Sashakrew is not on this show too :(

Even if you go along, you'll find a crowd to mingle with. Going to concerts and events like this are fun along or not.
 
That's BS from Vince. He gives Sheamus a push.
Sheamus the opposite of Titus

Guys I love Titus, he's an amazing dude and a great hot tag but

he's a terrible singles wrestler. Like really bad and awkward. He's not WHC material for that reason.

I love Titus as a talker, but he's a man out of time. You could he an awkward, limited worker and a charismatic top guy in the early 90s, but nowadays, the wrestling style precludes it. Titus would be a terrific face of the company, but he'd be a disaster as top guy on Raw and PPVs, unless WWE figured out a way to smoke and mirrors the hell out of him.
The guy they want to make the face of the company was only good for hot tags which is why everyone loves when he stepped into the ring during the shield.

I mentioned or before that Titus would've been a perfect fit for the late 90s early 2000s but now he's the odd ball. Hell the brand split would've worked to his advantage like it did with Booker T during his King Booker run.

I see Titus as a great face more than a heel and with Faces always taking the beat down, he'd be fine.

House show Monday going on same time as Raw (Raw in NY, house show in PA). If you watch Raw, don't expect live stuff from Kane, Breeze, Dolph, Dudleys, Wyatts, Dreamer, Charlotte, or Paige
Raw will be good then.

I'm anxious since I actually never went to an event along.
I can imagine it being fine once. But I can see it being awkward if you are a grown man sitting at the end of the row, with five seats to left of you filled with kids that aren't related to you. You might start to get dirty looks directed your way by attending parents after a while.

Raw will be good then.

Except Reigns was young and handsome, meaning he was more marketable and had more potential to improve (which he's done, at least as a wrestler), whereas Titus has more of that football player meathead look and was already 35 when he came up to the main roster and is now 38, and hasn't gotten particularly better as a wrestler in that time. He's a dope, dope, dope personality, and I would honestly be on board with him getting a big singles push (say, IC Title or something like that) just to see him cut promos and do backstage segments and be awesome, but he was never going to be a top guy, because he just got into the game too late in his life and at the wrong time in its history.

Monday Night's Raw show at the Barclays Center, featuring the return of John Cena, is now officially sold out.

The event sold out yesterday, with 13,000 tickets sold.

There has only been one major arena Raw sellout since the last time the company ran the Barclays Center, on Aug. 24, the day after SummerSlam, which was the 11/9 show from Manchester, England.

Prior to SummerSlam, the prior legitimate Raw sellout was on April 13 at the O2 Arena in London. Prior to that it was the March 30 show in San Jose, the day after WrestleMania. Leading up to WrestleMania, Raw sold out frequently, including four of the five Mondays in March.

I keep forgetting that Titus is oth at the point.

After dumping 170 hours into Fallout 4, Vault Boy Rollins reflects on his time on top. Time to rest that knee. The Future will have to wait.

So Rollins not only killed the ratings/viewership, he also killed attendance?

Cena = Draw

Reigns not so much.

The lord and savior of WWE is back.
Lapsed Vince -

Mmmm yes...Cena works to draw. I love that fucking son of a bitch. He draws. Not like those other assholes. It gives me a fucking roaring erection while I'm counting the gate.

I am sure Vince already jerked of twice to this news and thinks about how to put the strap on him.
 
I hope Cena's Raw return is him squashing Del Rio in seconds, can't wait.

We need them ratings, time to bring back the Boss!
The man is really throwing himself all in with his mission to get Roman over, I find it oddly endearing.

I'll wish you luck in searching for a future job that you'll enjoy.

I'm now reminded of Kofi Kingston sitting in an office cubicle and just suddenly thinking something along the lines of "this sucks, I'm gonna go wrestle", a true hero.

I remember when these threads use to DRAW....

Unfortunately we can only work with what we're given, in a sense right now it's like being told creative has nothing for us.

This is more like John Cena doing what he should do and quitting because the company relies too much on me and no one else is going for the brass ring, brother.

A guy, imitating an ape, while another guy, dressed up in a suit, holds down a microphone to him. And behind thrones the WWE-logo above them.

Something you need to sink in to truly appreciate it.
