Vamp Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Let's not condemn them yet. I mean sure, if they don't pay out for Emi Sakura to come out to "We will rock you" we can shit on them for missing a massive opportunity but they haven't failed to do that yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinity Land Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 This is Evil Uno as the 5th man level of lowering expectations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Healy52003 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Costing me over €200 between travel, ticket and hotel for what will be a good event but if its a glorified house show with some big guys missing it will leave a real sour taste    Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 So we started off arguing about how many tickets they may or may not sell. Now we're speculating about it being a glorified house show despite there being absolutely nothing to say anything like that whatsoever. This is a great topic.

The fact that people think the man who paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for the final countdown isn't going to go fucking mental for the biggest show he'll ever host is completely baffling.

"Glorified house show" is just another example of the goal posts being moved. AEW could sell a show out on the moon and there'd still be people going "Yeah but it's not on Ganymede".

As much as I love Des, that wouldn't fit. Jeff is a good shout, or Mark Chapman but he's a BBC man. It'll probably turn out to be that Daily Star lemon who used to be on Wrestletalk and Jack Whitehall tbh. As long as its not Keith Lemon we can all be relieved....

What even is a glorified house show? Reasonable question, people mean a non-cannon show that is given a fancy title. Think of the WWF PPVs held twice a year in the UK 20 or so years ago, Rebellion and Insurrextion or whatever they were called.  2 hours ago, poetofthedeed said: The fact that people think the man who paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for the final countdown isn't going to go fucking mental for the biggest show he'll ever host is completely baffling. This will be dick swing to end all dick swings. Big names will be on the card, I think most of us are sure of that. People just want to some TV time to acknowledge it, make the matches seem important and feel more invested. Khan can't go to overboard on this and probably shouldn't as All Out is a week later and has to sell PPVs so requires the biggest matches. Obviously the card for All Out will mainly be set by this point too, so I think they need to have 1 or 2 big matches non All Out based, such as Omega vs Ospreay, and some matches set up on TV that are part of the feud that culminates on All Out, a fun tag with Sting, a mental spot fest and at least 1 match where i won't feel like ive missed anything if i go for a piss during it. I'm confident it will be a good show but as said before I can understand why someone who has spent a lot more than the £30 I have would be worried. Edited July 12, 2023 by westlondonmist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
