Loligan Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Bloody hate the pyro. I jumped and shrieked like a girl at Raw 2 weeks ago when the woman was checking my ticket, wasn't expecting it as the main show hadn't started. Thanks very much Usos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrestlingmad Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 This is true, I was sat near enough the stage for RAW in Miami. If you forgot about the pyro for uso's and didn't expect Kane to come out or you're chatting away when Show comes out. Your jumping out of your seat. Good thing is your never alone so nobody laughs at you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted April 15, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted April 15, 2012 At the Raw after WrestleMania my mate nearly shat himself when Kofi Kingston's pyro went off. I was laughing at him for ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 That every div in your row -- and they all will be divs -- is going to go to the toilet or just for a wander about a million times during the show, so you're constantly getting up to let people past. It's as bad as Mass, with all the sit-stand-sit-stand annoyance. I assume that isn't specific to wrestling, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pier Six Brawler Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 The most awful thing about TV tapings is when they re-shoot stuff because either the guys in the ring fucked something up, or perhaps the cameras didnt get the right shot. This affects both Raw and SmackDown tapings when they are in the UK. Nothing more business-exposing and frustrating for an audience to witness than the finish to a match being redone. How exactly do they do that? Do the guys just walk to the ring and do the spot again, or do they contrive some kind of situation around it?

Paid Members Vipes Posted April 15, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted April 15, 2012 Yeah, as others have said, the pyro is ridiculously loud and even worse if you are not expecting it. Â After the first time you get used to it through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeymike83 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 That there's not enough lighting. The WWE would be huge with just a bit more lighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How exactly do they do that? Do the guys just walk to the ring and do the spot again, or do they contrive some kind of situation around it? Â It depends. Sometimes, like when they did fifty retakes of Drew McIntyre attacking Finlay, it just seems like a really boring, repetitive angle. With a match, usually it looks ridiculous. At the Liverpool Raw in November, the main event was Cena and Ryder vs Awesome Truth and they fucked something up in the finish. I think the way they got to the redo was Cena challenging Miz and Truth to get back in the ring, and this time it was even worse because R-Truth completely missed his cue to hold Cena's feet down as Miz pinned him. So they did the same spot a third time. After one of the retake brawl/pins, Cena got on the mic and said "That wasn't even a match!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Bellenda Carlisle Posted April 16, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted April 16, 2012 The people sat near you will smell terrible. Â Less than at a British wrestling show though. Â The thing that surprised me most when I first went to a big wrestling show (it was WCW) was that there was no commentary out loud in the arena, seems weird that I thought there would be now but at the time I was really surprised.

I used to wonder about that, as I have a friend who went to see World Wrestling All-stars around 2002 and it had Disco Inferno and someone else doing live commentary out loud.
