  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,065 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Fun times

    Waiting on news for the flight I'm on, Supposed to be gone at 3pm

    At least the event was good



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,972 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    We got dumped off the train 3 stops from Stansted. Ran for a taxi and three of us shared the only taxi at the train station rank and got to the airport thankfully . Hundreds left stranded at stops along the way with no help.

    Flight appears to be ok so far.

    Left my mates hotel at 12.20 to get the 2am bus from Liverpool Street to Stansted, waited at one stop as 3 full night buses went by, went to a second stop and 2 more went by, so said fcuk it and started walking, about 3/4 of the way there found a terminus for a bus going there and actually got there for the 01.40 bus. Everything went smooth as silk after that.

    London is a kip, always has been, always will be, move the west end to a city like Liverpool, Manchester or Glasgow that can actually handle multiple large scale events and nuke that shithole.

    Flight delayed twice 6:30 then 7:30 and now back to normal starting to board keeping everything crossed.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,894 ✭✭✭hynesie08


    If anybody has to be in work tomorrow, the old 80s favorite sail and rail will get you into Dublin for 6am, and ferries are better than planes anyway.




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,147 ✭✭✭endainoz


    Got back to Shannon, thank fcuk, we were very lucky going by the other cancellations.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,870 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    Jaysus. Lucky for me I took the train to Paris this morning. Saw a few AEW shirts on it.

    Our flight from Heathrow for 12 took off at 5 pm. Lots of ambiguity in regards to it though for that whole time. Currently en route back to Kilkenny now thankfully.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,870 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    Stade de France for All In 2025 please Tony. Paris is a proper town.

    Hope all you travellers get home safe eventually and enjoyed the show!


    I managed to shift my ticket (took a big loss) cause I had an impromptu work meeting, sucked to miss the show, would have been crucified if I wasn't able to get back home though. At least there's always next year, gonna be interesting to see how next year goes ticket wise, think they'll need to put more an effort into building the card next time if they want to get near that number again personally but honestly didn't think they'd hit 81,000 either, serious accomplishment for a company that is still young. Wrestling is in good shaped these days.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,065 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Feel like screaming

    Got a hotel for £70

    Flights for tomorrow were so hard to get but got one for later tomorrow.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,894 ✭✭✭hynesie08


    I think that they'll shift a large number of tickets to fans, but the fact that the show looked cool as fcuk and was just fun will encourage people's mates to grab a ticket, I think they'd do 65k + easy.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,220 ✭✭✭ThePott


    Maybe, hopefully it would be great. Having an annual 'Mania' event here so close would be amazing.

    Some might have bought tickets because we don't get these events aroudn here often though and a card wasn't vital. I definitely won't be buying tickets as urgently as I did considering the price drops that happened, think it's a big enough stadium that getting tickets last minute is pretty viable.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,065 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Love how a Dinosaur tried to help put a joker crow in a casket

    Lads stabbing each other, pure craziness of the match

    The best Fozzy concert I ever saw

    My view of the ring was great but not so much the entrance ramp. Was really only apparent at the start of the Hook vs Jack Perry match



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,949 ✭✭✭rizzla


    Managed to get the last flight to Dublin out of Heathrow. Was originally the 12 flight boarded around 4:30. Everything else got cancelled after ours. Absolute nightmare.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,972 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Just home thank fcuk!

    A qick watch now to see if I was on camera for the BCC's entrance.



    And Yes I am :)

    Julia Hart's mom's reaction to Julia being Sissored.

    Taz and Nigel should be on commentary together more, Nigel's 'the what?!' to Taz's yambag comment had me dying.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,871 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    I hope ye all get home

    Was any celebs or sport stars in attendance in the audience?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,972 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    I used to love London and lived there for a bit at one time.

    I've been over there twice in the last year and it is progressively getting worse and yes it is turning into a right kip.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,685 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    I don’t understand why Aer Lingus haven’t contacted me regarding new flights when you go to their website and book flights tomorrow back to Shannon

    ffs



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 60,972 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    To those still in London hope you make it out and home today.

    I see more flights are being cancelled and the chaos could/will last for days to come



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,685 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    I ended up booking my own aer Lingus flight home and therefor spending more money on flights but Thank god i'm home.... phew

    Aer Lingus already refunding me for my cancellation.....



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,949 ✭✭✭rizzla


    Next year gonna find a place closer to Wembley. Stayed in Canary Wharf and it was a trek. When the DLR stopped ended up getting an Uber and was surprised that it wasn't too bad price wise.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,685 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    I stayed in Premier Inn Wembley Park and the following day after All Out I went see how much were rooms in the same hotel for next year and they're already sold out lol



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,065 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Stansted like the last days of Rome

    Flight to Dublin on schedule, what happened was I got the cancellation notice yesterday at the gate and connections were horrendous. Booked a new flight costing me a far wack as i just couldn't get through to the 'change flight/refund'. Explained to customer chat today (as it was a mess trying to get out of Gatwick yesterday) and they basically told me 'you're mess up and you should of took the free flight option, sorry no refund'

    I'm going to make a claim for my Hotel stay last night

    Thank **** the event was amazing

    If you watch that clip with the sound off and out of context it's got some serious rape vibes



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,147 ✭✭✭endainoz


    Except it was done by an openly gay man who obviously would have cleared it with her first



  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 12,821 Mod ✭✭✭✭riffmongous




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,870 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    I was surprised they did it at the time. I've no doubt Julia was fine with it, she seems like she's very much willing to get stuck in and pay her dues as it were but they haven't really done the deliberate male on female physicality before. That I can think of anyway.

    It was clearly never meant to be a wrestlemania though

    Also if it was anything like WM he and other people would still give out saying "oh typical AEW copying WWE blah blah blah"



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,065 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Finally back home, an aviational **** up if ever there was one. Could of been worse and it happening Saturday or Sunday meaning fans could of missed the event

    Have to say it was a great event and so fast paced. For what I saw of the pre show it was good. Joe vs Punk as an opener was probably the slowest match of the night but had its moments. The Trios match was magnificent (rather surprised with the result), seeing Omega and Hangman was worth half the ticket money. The Tag Titles match was also very good but felt having it on straight after the Omega match caused the crowd to be a little fatigued. The Stadium Stampede was glorious organised chaos, felt Moxleys pain high up in the stands. Orange Cassidys entrance was class. Can't say I was too into the Women's fatal 4 way but nice touch for Saraya to win it at 'home'. The coffin match was enjoyable with Sting getting a massive reaction as was expected. He clearly can still go and possibly more too the 'WWE not clearing him sanario'. That Fozzy entrance rocked, the match itself was good with Jericho been a lot better than expected. Osprey been the 'heel' went out the window quite fast. The Trios Title match was interesting and was great seeing everyone in the match. Billy Gunn is one of the greats and House of Black have one of the best 'looks/Imagitry' in Wrestling today. Nice to get a 'Scissor me' too

    The main event delivered and really had the 'big match' feel. Was really expecting one of the 2 too turn but nope. Had a feeling Strong was going to side with a heel MJF. Good storytelling throughout the match

    Even though they were gaps here and there it was really an enormous crowd and will go down in the ages. I thought Tony (he was quite hyper when he did appear) would of been the one to announce the attendance but a nice touch having Nigel McGuinness do it. Nice they mixed the commentary up during the night (didn't have a great view of the desk from where I was sitting). Didn't realise Tony Schiavone was there (missed the Miro contract signing or whatever it was)

    Great having it back next year and I'll think strongly going over again. I wonder will it be largely the same setup. Maybe WWE will run Spurs Stadium or Twickenham to combat AEW in the London Market. Can you imagine WWE running Summerslam a mere few weeks before it

    Pro Wrestling is in a great place esp for us the European/UK fanbase

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,065 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Didn't realise the pre show started so early the other day

    Thought it was only going to be the 2 matches and not the other segments too



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,949 ✭✭✭rizzla


    First prediction for All In 2024, Collision is also live from London on the Saturday.

    Full replay of All In is listed on ITV4 tonight at 9pm



  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 15,254 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    They should have Jack Perry change his music to and see the reaction from the crowd




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,065 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Did anyone hear anything back from any Ryanair claims they applied for ?

    Coming up to 2 weeks since filled out the forms and nothing back yet



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,147 ✭✭✭endainoz


    I believe there is some other crowd you can do this claim with aside from Ryanair, who in fairness will make it as difficult and as drawn out as humanly possible, because as we all know they are a shower of pr1cks.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,820 ✭✭✭grames_bond


    Aer Lingus refunded us the original cancelled flight (we bought a new one cause we couldnt wait in london till the friday) hotel for the night and 2 meals each.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54,685 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    Same for me

    that refunded paid for my hotel to so I was delighted



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,820 ✭✭✭grames_bond


    the flight refund paid for your hotel? They are supposed to cover both



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,065 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,949 ✭✭✭rizzla


    Considering how cheap the nosebleeds where I assume people bought them with some intention of going but maybe couldn't make it. It's slightly higher percentage than the no shows at other AEW shows.
