    ATM no Irish date announced for the November European tour

    Nov 1- Glasgow
    Nov 2: Brighton
    Nov 3: London
    Nov 4: Barcelona
    Nov 4: Minehead
    Nov 5: Madrid
    Nov 5: Cardiff
    Nov 6: Manchester (RAW Taping)
    Nov 7: Manchester (Smackdown Taping)
    Nov 8: Dortmund
    Nov 8: Leeds
    Nov 9: Leipzig
    Nov 10: Hamburg
    Nov 10: Milan
    Nov 11: Mannheim
    Nov 11: Padova
    Nov 12: Florence

    Few free dates to slot in a Dublin show but I think it benefits WWE more to visit here just once a year

    Yeah, they seem to have decided once a year is enough, which is a shame.

    Last year, NXT tided us over a bit :(

    Probly is tbf and Irish fans could always travel abroad to see me in the autumn

    The TV tapings this were average at best this week and I would of been a little disappointed if I travelled over


  • Registered Users Posts: 15 Marty91


    Damn. that's a shame the schedule changed and they're only coming over once a year.

    last Friday was my first live event in 2 years and I enjoyed it. I'll be going to Wrestlemania next year, so I'm excited for that. went to WM27 and it was an awesome experience. but still, shame the Irish fans are only getting one live event a year.

    I guess then this is the part where we say OTT is there to tide over Irish wrestling fans in the mean time. Been meaning to try and get to a show and with the long period till the next WWE one, must make it a priority :)

    Raw's Euro tour finishes tomorrow night in Rotterdam

    The beer will be flowing but my god they deserve it. On the go in different countries for 10 nights

    I'm sure it's been brought up before.... but why won't they do a TV taping over here, either Belfast or Dublin?
    They've done Glasgow, which apparently has less capacity than the Point, and UFC has had a few shows from there so can't imagine the shape is that big a problem.

    3arena is simply not wide enough for the ramp and all the cameras/production stuff. I'll attach pics of the tapings in Glasgow (image 2) and a pic from last weekend in Dublin (image 1). The hydro in Glasgow has a larger and wider standing area compared to the 3arena and higher tired seats. Both are great arenas and I'd love a TV taping in Dublin but logical the arena is too small.

    I'd also imagine there'd be a fair cost getting all that equipment across to Ireland.

    I could be wrong but isn't the ring they use at the 3arena stored there for use whenever WWE do a show?, it's not the typical WWE size i'd say it's probably smaller than ECWs rings used to be but having said that 0tts rings is probably smaller still


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,553 ✭✭✭Blue_Dabadee


    Any idea how much UK TV tapings tickets usually cost?

    Not sure. But the ring would only be part of what I was referring to. They'd want the whole stage, the camera and recording equipment, etc.

    I knw sky record the premier league darts there evey year but I'd imagine that's a completely different type of production than a wwe taping. Sure the ufc,boxing, mma broadcasts etc only have the rings really and not big fancy titontrons

    Its possible but I imagine there would be 2 many tweeks to make it worthwhile

    Yep - I went to both tapings last week in London and they were £96.50 a piece. That was for level 1 tickets (mid-tier)

    Glasgow last Nov cost me

    Raw- level 1 £85.15 per ticket (half an hour of Superstars (2 matches), 3 hours of raw and a dark match. Nowadays Main Event is taped before Raw as they got rid of The Superstars show )

    SD-Level 1 £79.45 per ticket (I got 1 main event match, SD recorded the whole show in about on 1hr and Half, another main event match and 2 dark matches. Nowadays you get 205 live after the recording of SD, a dark match before SD and another after the 205 taping,Main Event is taped before Raw now)

    That was unexpected, unusual too announce so late

    AFAIK It's the opening date for the SD crew

    Styles, Nakamura, Orton, KO, New Day, Zayn and Mahal among others.

    Might do what i done for last may and buy a ticket closer too the date when the exact card is announced

    I hope it's the SmackDown Live roster. Wouldn't be fair if we got to see Roman twice :P

    But I might be away in NYC at that time >.< - Will have to see how this fairs out.

    Tbh Is go just too see Nakamura and Styles

    Don't Think Cena and Y2J will be available for this tour


  • Registered Users Posts: 632 ✭✭✭VampiricPadraig


    I checked Aiken's site and there was nothing there. Nice one!
    I might just put the trip off then :P


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,468 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Ah jesus, I was just getting on top of money too :P

    Is it selfish to want an AJ/Nak feud heading into Survivor Series to get it on this tour :D

    reckon the rivilaries around this time will be something like this

    Baron Corbin (WWE Champ cashes in after Summerslam) vs Kevin Owens

    Aj Styles (US champ) vs Rusev

    Nakamura vs Orton

    Jindar Mahal & Sigh Brothers (Tag Champs) vs New Day

    Chad Gable vs Zayn

    we might also get that awsome Maria and Mike Kanellis theme too :D:D

    Quite a lot turns there. I don't see them turning Owens, Corbin or Orton. I know you could say this about Jidar but Corbin not ready for the belt yet.

    deff going too go for the middle priced option for Dublin in November (cost €67 for the raw show last may and i had a brillent view in Block B row 21)

    Three pre sale starts at 9am 2morrow and public sale starts on Thursday

    cant miss the chance too see Nakamura, Styles and Kevin Owens


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,741 ✭✭✭SureYWouldntYa


    Does it be hard to get tickets closer to the event?

    Haven't been to a show since the one in the RDS in 05 with Stone Cold at it, I was only 10 at the time so feck all memories minus a disposable camera that I never got developed :pac:

    Not really I got a ticket for the last show 3 weeks before the event and there were tickets still available on the day of the show. Also plenty of ticket sales on Toutless, Done deal etc. AFAIK November's show falls on the school mid term holidays so it might be busy

    I remember I won tickets too the 2005 show but could not make it. I wonder why they done that type of summer tour in 2005 ???. It was 2009 by the time i Saw WWE live

    20,000+ at it, bigger than most PPVs

    I wonder if Stone Cold still had a certain amount of appearances left on his contract and they were used for big shows like this to boost the numbers, iirc the Point was being done up at the time so wasn't available and other arenas in Dublin would be much too small and the stadiums much too big
