Shooting Star 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2004 I heard that the WWE will do some sort of house show in puerto rico on January 9th....is this true? I live in Dominican Republic just 30 minutes away from Puerto Rico and it would just be a dream come true to go to a wrestling show even if it means risking my own life since everytime i've been to puerto rico to a concert or anything in the Roberto Clemente a riot breaks out but if this is true then it is my destiny to be there!!! so is this true?got any info?

Hunter's Torn Quad 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2004 They didn't pay to see him when he was there. Maybe a few WWE adverts with Colon talking about moving on from 'the bush leagues' would change that. A long shot, I know, but I figure they should try anything at the moment, especially in a near-virgin market, and every little thing could help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That reminds me of being deployed in Turkey, where we only got the armed services network. Anyone that's served over seas knows what I'm talking about. It sucks. We only got Smackdown (no Raw) and it was two months old and clipped down to an hour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At first they were going to do it at the Roberto Clemente which is a baseball stadium but now they are going to do it at Jose Miguel Areglot to which i haven't been to yet but i heard it's indoor.

Shooting Star 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2004 is it really that bad over there ? The thing is puerto ricans love argueing and the riots usually start when 2 fans start argueing about who is the better wrestler. I once went to a IWA show and a riot started because some people were argueing about who's better Rey Misterio or Amazing red and then everyone just joined in on the fight. And also if the favorite wrestler loses which means if the WWE doesn't want a riot they better make sure they have Randy Orton win since he is MEGA OVER in P.R and so is HHH.

Because most of the people outside of Canada, England U.S and maybe Australia are marks and we believe everything the WWE tells us and we cheer who they want us to....I for one discovered wrestling was fake about 2 years ago.

Slickster 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2004 Arena is capacity 13,000 (11K with stage/ring), so this follows WWE's trend of slightly downsizing the arenas they use for PPV to minimize tarpage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eclipse 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2004 If I was in Puerto Rico, I would definately go. Funny, I am Puerto Rican too, and heh, the rioting part is not always happening. BUT, it did happen once. There was another Puerto Rican Day Parade after the one in New York City, in NJ, Jersey City to be exact. An independent wrestling organization I follow decided to run the 3 days that the parade would be there. Well, man, most of the ppl there probably didn't know that wrestling is fake! My god! On the roster, there were some Puerto Rican wrestlers that fought against the heels in the roster. Wow, I never heard so much cursing in Spanish in my LIFE! Hell, one of the biggest tag teams around the Northeast indy scene, the Dirty Rotten Scoundrelz, egged on a fan, you know, to step into the ring. Well, the fan nearly jumped the barricade ready for a fight, and security had to stop him. Funny, because later in the day, the whole parade/carnival was cut down 3 hours early, due to a fight stemming from the wrestling show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
