Rogers Centre hosting Elimination Chamber on March 1st!

Completely surprised by that. A Rumble I could've seen, but a chamber here is crazy.

Prices definitely might be TOO much for me, especially knowing the view for most seats in that stadium might suck.

I believe their WM record still stands as the largest attendance in stadium history, but I could easily see that record and any possible gate record they think they'll break with EC to be set by one of these upcoming 6 Taylor Swift concerts the next 2 weeks here. WWE takes over a city when they run PLEs, but the Swift concerts shut down a city.

It's tempting to do this lol.... but I'm already going to Mania and that ticket was ridiculous. I can't imagine Chamber ticket prices.

It's $500 for the 500 level seats + VIP access so I'd guess at least $200 for upper bowl?

Re: WWE Off-Topic

I don't mind them. I just...don't read spoilers and watch the show?

The only part I don't like about taped shows is the obvious crowd noise they add in post-production. It never, ever sounds natural.

It's kind of impossible to avoid considering how connected we all are nowadays. Am I expected to be untethered to Twitter or other places until I watch this dumb *** show or something? I don't even follow wrestling news accounts and I routinely get spoiled from friends or trending topics or anything. That's a crazy expectation this day and age and it's more than a little arrogant on behalf of the company to expect that, if that's the case.

There used to be a time where WWE spoiled it's own taped show results on the WWE.com website, especially when SD was taped on tuesdays and aired on thursdays.

They only did so to try getting people to read spoilers on their own site over going to dirtsheets. Don't think it worked at all and just made things worse.

They'd just be like "Breaking news, Edge cashes in his money in the bank, tune in this week on Smackdown to see him become world champ!"

Can't say you're wrong because the algorithms are going to do what they do, I can only say I don't come across too many. Can I avoid them all? Nah but I somehow avoid most. My feed just keeps spitting out old stuff, lately a lot from GrappleClips or The Many Debuts in WWE.

I'm curious if the field view seats at the Toronto Marriott are going to be open for booking that weekend. Imagine watching the show with that view, I was curious what the prices would be for that weekend for the hotel at the stadium and isn't too bad. Do most rooms have a view looking down or is it only a certain set of rooms? Might just do a quick trip for the show or something, arrive day of on Saturday, use Sunday to see more of Toronto then back home on Monday.

WWE has confirmed the location of the first RAW on Netflix to be taking place from the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles on January 6th. Tickets on sale this Friday at 10am/1PM ET. Interesting that Roman and Cody are advertised in this tweet, but the fact Adrenaline is used in Bianca's picture and not Cody's is kind of funny.

They announced the start time of 8pm ET, but still no confirmation on if it's a 2 hour or 3 hour show?

I imagine the first Netflix one would be 3, but beyond that still no word on anything.

Re: WWE Off-Topic

Here's a LOL WCW moment that DIDN'T happen.

Bischoff said he wanted to do a story where he faked his own death and came back as a ghost......

Of all the ideas in WCW history, this was one of them alright.

Re: WWE Off-Topic

Reports saying some WWE talent are frustrated at not being able to get comp tickets for family since shows are selling out so often.

Company wise it's a good problem to have, but I also wonder if they'll do anything about it. They don't owe the talent tickets, but it's obviously a gesture they should be doing.

At the same time, they are giving talent more days off as shown by all these double tapings in November/December (after Raw tonight they don't have any other event until Survivor Series).
