Guest PhillyDogg Posted February 1, 2003 Report Posted February 1, 2003 The SD tapings in Philly this Tuesday is expected to have 7,000 people in a 17,000 arena. That is sad and surprising since it is a TV taping. At this rate maybe the WWE will run house shows in high schools. Didn't the WWF run some house shows in high schools in 1995?
Guest IB2BLACK Posted February 1, 2003 Report Posted February 1, 2003 Who is a "real" draw on Smackdown? Somebody people will pay $$$$$, to see?
Mecha Mummy Posted February 1, 2003 Report Posted February 1, 2003 Hogan and Rock, but they really aren't confirmed to be there.

Yeah, they did, including one in my HS (Bellport, NY). Here were the results: WWF @ Bellport - February 12, 1995 Man Mountain Rock defeated Mike Bell Mabel defeated Tony Devito Hakushi defeated Aldo Montoya Doink the Clown defeated the Brooklyn Brawler WWF Tag Team Champions the Smoking Gunns defeated Mike Bell & the Executioner King Kong Bundy defeated Adam Bomb Jacob & Eli Blu fought the New Headshrinkers to a double count-out Lex Luger defeated Tatanka in a lumberjack match God, you know this sucks when LEX LUGER is in the main event against Tatanka.
Guest CoreyLazarus416 Posted February 1, 2003 Report Posted February 1, 2003 Philly, eh? I'm surprise. I'd expect a few more people to show up, if only because it's PHILLY and PAUL HEYMAN is on the show. Then again, most of the ECW Mutants still in Philly are probably already the ones that bought tickets...
Guest Mulatto Heat Posted February 1, 2003 Report Posted February 1, 2003 Hogan and Rock, but they really aren't confirmed to be there. Go to wwe.com... the image hyping HHH/Lesnar at MSG tonight changes to one confirming that Hogan will be in Philly for the SD taping on Tuesday.
Guest treble charged Posted February 2, 2003 Report Posted February 2, 2003 WWE should really start having their TV tapings at smaller arenas. I'm not saying tiny 3,000 seat arenas, but, for in most markets, they seem to have trouble selling more than 10,000 tickets for them, so why book big buildings?
Guest CoreyLazarus416 Posted February 2, 2003 Report Posted February 2, 2003 WORCESTER CENTRUM HARA ARENA IN DAYTON, OH They're big enough to not be an embarassment, and small enough to sell-out fast.
Guest PhillyDogg Posted February 2, 2003 Report Posted February 2, 2003 I guess Team Angle and Brock Lesner can't put asses in seats.
Guest ManKinnd Posted February 2, 2003 Report Posted February 2, 2003 I'm going. I got the tickets like 2 days ago and they're section 109 row 17.
Guest Spaceman Spiff Posted February 3, 2003 Report Posted February 3, 2003 I guess Team Angle and Brock Lesner can't put asses in seats. Nobody in the WWE is putting asses in the seats, so it's quite unfair to name Team Angle & Brock.

I hate my high school and even I wouldn't wish that card on it.
Guest MarvinisaLunatic Posted February 3, 2003 Report Posted February 3, 2003 Isn't Worcester getting Backlash? I forget (and Im the one that posted the info in the blank thread)
Guest gwf0704 Posted February 3, 2003 Report Posted February 3, 2003 And Smackdown is the superior show!
Guest razazteca Posted February 3, 2003 Report Posted February 3, 2003 Who is a "real" draw on Smackdown? Somebody people will pay $$$$$, to see? Albert, Rikishi, Big Show, Chucky Palumbo?

That proves my point that Brock is bombing as a draw, i think it was too soon to turn him face.Being the #1 guy means that people are paying to see him, back in 98 people were paying to see Austin, not Shamrock or even Taker, and the way Brock is being push he should be putting more asses in seats.
Guest notJames Posted February 3, 2003 Report Posted February 3, 2003 It's not Brock so much as how they're using him. He's being programmed against Big Show as a stop gap on his way to WM. That would kill anyone's heat.
