They don't bother with PPVs or even Raw at MSG anymore because they know they can just do a house show and it will still sellout.
Dem fees... fuck. And you'll probably get hit with card handling too. One thing I definitely hate with a passion.Speaking of the O2, WTF?
This is for that one off special in September, I don't remember them being this expensive last time.

Awh SummerSlam 98,opening doors and The Highway to Hell.I started up SummerSlam '98 this morning. It's the 10th anniversary and being held at MSG.
And it's expensive to broadcast there. Gee wiz, MSG grabs you by the balls with prices.

Yeah, I decided against it when that "£65" ticket was almost £80 in the cart. When I paid less than that for NXT even, and I've no idea what I'm getting from the event... I'll catch it on the Network.
He totally shot on him saying phrases like "C'mon baby!" and "Ask him, ask him!" clearly referring to some backstage beef the two must have.
"Did I leave the oven on?"

If Taker loses at Mania, will he come back next year and cut off his hair until Shane agrees to a rematch
I actually rewatched the whole thing earlier today and while there were a lot of people booing there were a decent amount of people cheering under that. Reigns is a weird one.
I've watched him wrestle since 1996.
I hated his fucking guts for being a self obsessed, self serving, career destroying egomaniac piece of shit from 2002 until 2011 but compared to what they have today, he is rightly the king of kings.
I don't care about moves. It's the little things he does and his clear ability as a wrestler, not a video game character who lacks the most basic sense of urgency or pride.
Also no one should ever kick out of the pedigree, it should be the Stan Hansen Lariat, once it's hit it is over. You can avoid it, reverse its attempt, run from it but you can't survive it.
You'd figure lil naich would know what to do there.
Plus Vince has them call it like a shoot anyway so why would he count it as 2?
Neville is fucking lucky it was Y2J and not an idiot like Swagger in the ring with him.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
Jericho yells "HE'S HURT" and shoves Lil' Naitch and you can read his lips and he's like "he's broken his fucken ankle count it"
Not unless you're... ULTIMATE

I need that World Heavyweight Championship shirt.
This is the company that had Mic go out and interrupt the Kane Austin match in 98 AFTER falling off the cage.
Gotta protect the kayfabe, brother.

Thanks. Freakin' gorgeous shirt.
I want every finisher to be like that. Well, like, 99.9% of the time, at least.

A match with a guy who hasn't worked a full schedule in 15 years against a guy who never did?
They're giving you that this year.
The best striker in the WWE!
SIAP - but the Neville video of him being told his foot is fractured is pretty hard to watch.
I really hope hes back ASAP.

Correct. He needs to get back ASAP so he can team up with the Usos on Main Event more often, or battle Stardust on Smackdown.
I love Neville.

Why was he so concerned with not cutting his boots? Does WWE make these guys pay for their own gear?
Thanks for the clip.
Yeah I wasnt sure if this was a shoot or not. Jericho pushed him pretty hard. However, I could easily see this being a failsafe that guys can use if their opponent is too injured to finish.
I honestly think Jericho tried to roll him up for a clean pin but the ref didnt realize how badly injured Neville was, so Jericho took it up a notch and went for a DQ.
The look on the refs face is almost shock after he got pushed, so I could see it being a shoot.

punches dont look that bad. Taker is turtling+bad camara work. Shane is not connor mcgregor
Shit would sell like hotcakes for wrestling fans.
And its less embarrassing than most of the shirts they sell.
They do. They also make them pay for travel and hotels for anything in the US and Canada.
except people in this thread crying about the print being on the back
I am not sure, I was thinking they had more sentimental value than anything else. I seriously doubt he didnt want them to cut them off because he cant afford new ones.
