You're welcome WWE :youngsabo:

But yea that was a crowd combo you are only gonna get around WM time since you get the Europeans and the smarks in 1 crowd.

I can tell you the young kids and their parents around us had no fukking idea what was going on. They were lookin at us like :what:. So if that is the majority of the "normal" TV crowd it's just not gonna continue.

Well next week is gonna blow chunks. :beli:

Everyone's expectation better be low 'cause yesterday's Raw was once in a lifetime type of shyt.

I was at WCW houseshows in the mid 90s while you barely knew how write your name in cursive. Get real....

The merch gets moved at houseshows but that shyt isn't 15k deep or anything wild:laugh:

I'd love to know how much they moved this weekend. The line for the Superstore after the gates opened Sunday wrapped all the way around the entrance area after you get in MetLife.

People must have waited over an hour just to get in there, and after the show ended the line was almost as long waiting to get it. People were buying those $70 WM jerseys like it was nothin. Even at Axxess and last night the Merch lines were insane.

Vince gonna get those merch numbers and be like :smugdraper: for the rest of the week

I was wrong :leon:

it's TV, house shows, PPV


from the financial statements

I remember when house shows used to hit the same venues/arenas as RAW/SD would....but these days the numbers are smaller and house shows go to secondary venues that are obviously smaller and cheaper to rent.

If you can sell out the AAC for a house show that's 16,000 ppl or so, as opposed to going to a secondary venue that only holds 10,000

There were kids in my section (235). Can't really see the upper sections on the videos. Right in front of me was 2 kids and their parents, dad filmed his kids reactions to Cena and Ryback but other than that they made no noise whatsoever.

But the chants started in those lower sections and caught on with us up top. They deserve the credit for starting em, we just made em even louder.

WM weekend is the most profitable weekend for the company and this one was probably the most in history. Pure Merch numbers? I doubt it beats the prime Austin/Rock years when you saw overwhelming amounts of the audience wearing some form of Austin 3:16 or Just Bring It shirts.

I was just a teenager when Pac was killed and the NwO situation started. shyt, me and my best friend KNEW something was up and he had his father order Bash at the Beach 96 and we witnessed greatness LIVE..everyone else got on the bandwagon later but I saw it from the get go.

this is a PG product yet,

people forget that the ADULTS pay for the tickets to these shows, the merch, the cable bills, the video games...

so we should get more adult oriented content

shyt if the fans get behind Bryan Danielson, push that nikka. Why? because that means we will pay to see him.

if u push mark henry, bet you real nikkas will fill them shows up

WWE taped this week’s WWE Smackdown Tuesday night from the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. Below are full results including live news and notes:

The crowd seems to be slightly different from Monday night’s Raw. A Fandango theme song chant was a fail early on.
