    It takes place in Perth, Australia on February 24th (10am start time for Irish viewers)

    The ppv card:-

    Nice time difference for a change

    Drew and Becky be the best winners for the Chamber Matches

    When it comes too WWE never doubt a hometown hero defeat



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,870 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Nia has been getting the upper hand too much with Rhea for her to lose, I expect Nia to look strong tonight on Raw also



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,870 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    What if Priest cashes in on Seth while he is a guest of Waller, as the ppv needs some shock surprise but R-Truth intervenes



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,363 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Not sure who does the photoshop for those but they need to be reviewed before release to see if everyone can be recognised.

    Did not recognise LA Knight. just knew him from process of elimination (no pun intended). Owens just being a floating face.

    Was thinking only 4 matches means it won't be long, but then each Chamber match will likely last at least 25-30 minutes since have the 5 minute gap between entrants. Though that still leaves about 2 hours for the tag match which they may get some time out of and I'm assuming a short women's match since don't see Nia having a 30 minute match. And the Grayson Waller Effect maybe 20 minutes? Video packages. And will The Bloodline be in there anywhere?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,870 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    I discovered that Nia is also Australian born

    Wouldn't be overly excited about the card if I was a ticket holder for this. Be great seeing the chamber matches in person and home town hero pop for Rhea but after that nothing much of note

    Doubt The Rock and Roman will fly down

    I’m going and don’t care who’s on the card, just having such an event here instead of on the east coast is brilliant. Great buzz around the city centre over the past couple of days.

    Having said that, they struggled to shift tickets at the original price and there’s some serious discounts now. I got mine for free so won’t complain whatever happens. Should be over 40,000 there and the stadium is one of the best around.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,303 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Aye, my wife's relations are taking their kids after getting hugely discounted tickets and the kids are so excited about it. It's a massive thing to get a PLE/PPV in the country imo and especially in Perth (huge East Coast bias in Oz for events a lot of the time), something we still haven't managed despite having several major stars at the top of the card for years now. Go and enjoy it says I and don't mind the whingers😁



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,870 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Enjoy

    I wonder will Punk make an appearance even just on commentary

    I don't think that anyone believes that it's going to be a 5* PPV/PLE as it's essentially just a set up for WM40.

    It'll still be a great event in a large stadium in a region that's been overlooked for too long.

    One thing I do love about it is how annoyed the American's are that it's at a time that doesn't suit them!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 371 ✭✭Patrick Mahomes


    My brother got free tickets to it as well and is bringing the nephews. You don’t really go to a WWE show for the wrestling you go for atmosphere. The nephews just want a load of WWE stuff to show off


    Regards,

    P.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,064 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Enjoy everyone who is going



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 371 ✭✭Patrick Mahomes


    R-Truth is in Austria, Ron Killing is just the best.

    The brother took the nephews to the fan experience today and said they absolutely had a great time and said the whole place was buzzing.

    He did said they were papering it with tickets so there was a few who paid big money when it was first announced making themselves known and not happy

    Regards,

    P.

    Anything of note happen at the press conference? Won't get to watch it.

    Won't get Smackdown or Elimination Chamber watched until Sunday.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,064 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    These post covid international events have been fantastic for WWE. Caridff 2022 and MITB last year were awesome. Great hearing all the positive vibes from down under

    The Pro Wrestling Boardsies are world wide



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    From what I saw yesterday, a lot of yanks have come over for it. Triple H is saying 50,000 is the expected crowd which is great (even with freebies). The Undertaker did one of his events at an old prison last night, one of my mates was at it and said it was a brilliant night.

    There was very little hype over the past few months which was surprising considering the state government paid a lot of money to get the event in WA. But that’s changed massively this week and the coverage has gone into overdrive.

    I’ll head to the stadium with friends around 3:30pm to get amongst the atmosphere. We’ve all got our Perth 3:16 shirts ready to go 😂 Really can’t wait for it now!



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,303 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Indi Hartwell and Candice LeRae vs Kabuki Warriors for the women's tag titles added to the preshow if anyone is so inclined to watch.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,303 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Crowd great so far, seems like a brilliant atmosphere



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


    Everyone is a little off due to the humidity, hopefully it cools down or the nia jax match could be a disaster.

    Bianca looking quite 'Princess Leia in the Gold Bikini' out there.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,870 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Orton's Aussie Aussie Aussie 😁

    Is Mami Rhea and Dom being kept apart as she is the face in her home country ppv?



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


    I have very strong feelings about people kicking out of a double burning hammer......



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,509 ✭✭✭sioda


    Was it a work or did that look like Finn actually damage his thumb.


    Entertaining match that was only going one way though



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,892 ✭✭✭✭callaway92


    Women's Chamber match fizzled out a little bit. Thought the early going with Becky/Naomi/Tiffany and Bianca when she got involved initially was brilliant.

    Becky not doing it for me these days tbh. Not sure what it is..I just think there's much more diverse than her on the roster these days.

    Bianca Belair is awesome



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,303 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Not sure myself initially I thought he was selling the Pete Dunne spot but on a replay of the finish I think he might have popped it out



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,303 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    I was really impressed with Tiffany as well. She's definitely the next big star in the women's division. You're right though Becky's work hasn't been great recently.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,303 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Big Bronson Reed just became a big poppa, hence why he missed the event.



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


    Could have flown to Australia and I wouldn't have missed any of this match, really milking the entrances.

    I reckon Becky might step away from wrestling full time soon. She's 37 now, she's done everything there is to do, and if they want more kids time is ticking on. I think she'll beat Rhea at Mania then she'll put over whoever they decide is their next star. Maybe that's Rhea getting her title back.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,154 ✭✭✭✭~Rebel~


    Think Bobby really hurt himself there with the spear through the pod. Did an usually large amount of swearing after it!



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,303 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Chamber set up three matches for Mania anyways.

    Styles Vs LA Knight and McIntyre winning to get the shot v Seth I expected.

    Orton vs Logan Paul is an interesting development though...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,154 ✭✭✭✭~Rebel~


    I'd like to see Orton get a run with the US title. Though could well end up being a triple threat with KO in there as well.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,303 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Drew 100% deserves the match vs Seth for his character work the past few months. Hope he beats him too to finally get a crowning Mania moment in front of fans.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,303 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Possibly! If I'm being selfish I'd like a heel Orton as Cody's first big feud (assuming he finally topples Reigns!)

    There's so much history there for the two to work with.

    Looked like Rhea lost a guage there when Nia kinda flubbed a hair grab.



  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,303 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Crowd were great. Thought the tag match and men's chamber were the best matches though fair fecks to Rhea for getting a solid match out of Nia😂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,154 ✭✭✭✭~Rebel~


    Lovely moment for Rhea in front of her fans and family. Hopefully Nia drops away a bit now, there's enough other talent that she's not really needed in the title pictures.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Really fun night. Over 52,000 there and we got perfect weather for it as spectators. Watching it back now and Optus Stadium looked great, it wins a lot of awards for a reason. Probably the best pyro I’ve experienced too.

    Some good matches even with no major surprises. Personal highlights were seeing an RKO live, Cody’s entrance, and the crowd’s reaction for Rhea. The Grayson Waller segment was pretty woeful.




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,064 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    For anyone that was there was there be much obstructed view of the ring for the chamber matches ?

    Never saw a cage/HIAC type match live

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,870 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Was Orton legit injured?

    Very predictable winners



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,870 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Probably unpopular opinion but I'd give Nia her flowers for that match, she sold well for Rhea and since resigning has been a very good heel, even her in ring work has improved

    Nia beat Becky so is she going to try get in their match, also will Liv try?

    I hate when Rhea does Eddie moves, I know she is "Mami" to Dom but it is cringey imho

    Could Seth or Randy be turning after WM, looking at going after Cody, as much as it is good for Cody to have Seth in his corner, can he trust him



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,053 ✭✭✭✭cena


    I enjoyed the ladies chamber match. I can't watch Nia at all.



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


    Agree, I think Nia was good here as someone who couldn't stand her for the longest. Think she's actually been doing her best work since she's come back.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,870 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,363 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Just watched.

    Tiff was well over. The boos when she was eliminated were loud. Still not a Raquel fan. Also even though she wasn't too bad in this, anyone else think Liv tries too hard to be "extreme"?

    For the men's I thought Bobby was injured but when I saw them slowly taking him out, I was thinking someone would come in, and AJ did. So with 2 of the pins in this and the pin on Monday, Drew has had help.

    Did Nia looked smaller? Maybe it's because Rhea isn't exactly small herself. Also I assume that was her sister in attendance because she looks the spit of pre-dark Rhea.
