D.Z Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 WWE brought back Shawn Daivari, for producer role. Summerslam's crowd limit is expected to be around 50 to 60 percent capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wow, I was expecting 100%. If that’s the case, expected 60k capacity would be 30-36k, in that case it will probably sell out. I was counting on easy tickets in the final week.

matt925 Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Lol. Seriously wrestlers could teach basketball players when they're free falling after getting hit during a dunk. A one day pro wrestling camp for nba players, taking flat back bumps all day could honestly be a useful outside the box training session. Of course flopping incidents would increase 900%.

A few years ago when I was there in July it was 101 at night with a breeze coming in from California, it was like being in a dryer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s crazy, the field sits on a rolling tray that is outside on non game days because it’s needs full sunlight to grow, and then they just roll it in on game days. That also allows them to do stuff like Summerslam and major concerts without destroying the field like at Levi’s stadium. A tour of the stadium costs $60, supposedly summerslam tickets start at $25.

AxB Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 It's always interesting to me, how some WWE wrestlers toe the party line and pretend that WWE wrestling is the only wrestling that exists, and people who get released are erased from history. And then there's others who keep up with their friends who are on the indies... like Shotzi Blackheart, who showed up at Fear the Gay Agenda to give Dark Sheik a big hug.

Casey Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 I know we shouldn't give Jim Cornette attention, but him saying on Twitter that he could beat up Jack Evans - after Jack Evans rightfully called out Lance Storm for his "back in our day" grizzled vet shit - is hilarious.

Just what I needed to read before I go to sleep on a Saturday morning. Evans wasn't right about shit. Lance was specifically talking about his own generation when he made his comment, and Evans was just flat out wrong ignoring that his own generation only came in and made shit worse trying to ape what they saw in ECW, NJPW, and AJPW from the 90s. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 On 6/1/2021 at 11:17 AM, Dolfan in NYC said: Effy and Parrow are having a "Last Daddy Standing" hardcore match as part of Parrow's Effy's "The Gay Agenda" show. Happy Pride y'all Effy is a genius. And here is why. During the show last night, #FearTheGayAgenda (the name of the show) was trending top 10. And so lots of LGBTQ people clicked on the trend not knowing what it was (and generally assuming it was some homophobic bigot thing), and instead discovered for the first time that Gay Pro Wrestling was a thing that existed, and decided that actually this was very interesting and something they would like to know more about. So Effy is actually successfully making people who don't watch wrestling, into fans. That was his masterplan all along. And it's genius. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
