PPV in Philly Question

Recommended Posts

Just thinking about this, kinda off the subject but not quite . . . .

 

An area that has completely lucked out in the way of WWF/E PPV's in the last 7 or 8 years is North/South Carolina. Before '96, Vince and Co. NEVER had a PPV in the Carolinas - come to think of it, he'd never really even done TV PERIOD in the Carolinas. Starting in '96, there's been . . . .

 

IYH: Beware of Dog I/II '96 (Florence, SC/Charleston, SC)

Unforgiven '98 (Greensboro, NC)

King of the Ring '99 (Greensboro, NC)

Unforgiven '99 (Charlotte, NC)

SummerSlam 2000 (Raleigh, NC)

Survivor Series 2001 (Greensboro, NC)

Judgment Day 2002 (Charlotte, NC)

 

NOTE: That's a PPV EVERY YEAR in North Carolina from 1998-2002 - FIVE YEARS! Plus, 1999 saw TWO PPV's in North Carolina. Greensboro has had three PPV's and two of them have been "Big Five" PPV's

 

Pretty impressive, if you ask me. I don't know why Vince all of the sudden got a hard-on for doing PPV in the Carolinas (other than the fact that he was born in North Cackilacky :D , and the crowds are usually pretty hot)

 

I guarantee you . . once Charlotte, NC has finished the new downtown arena, they'll get one of the big PPV's, probably Royal Rumble or SummerSlam.

CORRECTION:

 

It was Judgment Day 2003 that was in Charlotte, NC . . . 2002 was in Nashville, TN

 

My bad :D

We have the "honor" of being the site of Chris Benoit's lone WORLD TITLE victory.

 

And those people shat on that.
