Re: WWE Summerslam 8/23/20

For SS weekend they're doing virtual meet and greets.

$125 for a 2 min conversation and autographed item.

Last year I got to go to a free event for a similar experience, except it was more like a 30 second conversation, but still.

At least the price tag SHOULD mean those stupid fans won't pay to talk to someone and be like "You suck! AEW is better! Mox and Jericho would beat you any day of the week!".

Lots of these plans seem to be announced on such short notice and seem to be on a first come basis. I said it before, it really would've been a better idea to open this up to NON US fans. You have a golden opportunity to give international fans an experience they'll probably never get a chance to have again, while eliminating the geographic limitations.

Bayley I believe was the first to sell out. If WWE can offer their own cameos but people pay them, it's really smart. Cameo has taken off, Big E is a perfect example where he is one of the most popular cameos to request.

Re: WWE Summerslam 8/23/20

Summerslam virtual seats are available now. Might be gone any minute so if you see this post, check asap.

https://www.wwethunderdome.com/regis...erslam08232020

I signed up, but don't know if I'll actually do it. You have to watch the show on your laptop and basically be there the entire time.

I'm channel flipping between SS and Raptors game 4 so they'd probably kick me out for not paying attention.

Re: WWE Summerslam 8/23/20

Its officially summerslam day. Still have no idea how I'm gonna watch the show itself. Not really any skippable matches on the card. Though it might be done by 10:30, so probably will be checking out SS during halftime.

My fave SS theme ever.

Re: WWE Summerslam 8/23/20

When was the last time every match on a PPV card actually had a build, and mostly interesting ones at that?

It's impressive and exciting and gives me hope for the product going forward.

My only issue that I won't be able to fast forward through anything involving Sasha or Bayley since I'll be watching live.
