Shooting Star

WWE in Puerto Rico?

Recommended Posts

I'd pay money to see fans riot at a WWE event....

There was nearly one at Unforgiven 2002 after the main event of Brock-Taker went to a no-contest. People were booing heavily and throwing stuff, so they had Taker come back to the ring and pose a bit and thank the fans to calm them down

I also went to the 8-23-04 Raw (The raw is Lita/Kane wedding episdoe) and wanted to riot for paying 30 bucks for cheap seats and seeing a grand total of 5 matches and the longest one being the edge/jericho ic title match and having to sit through an excruiciatingly long Rock/Tajiri/Divas/Coach segment

Shooting Star, congratulations. I hope you have a GREAT time at the show. I'm Puerto Rican myself, but I was born and raised in the Bronx, in a Puerto Rican neighborhood. I have a lot of family in Puerto Rico and whenever they would come up or I would go down there, regardless if it's one of my three uncles, my two aunts, my million cousins or whoever....they were ECSTATIC about wrestling. They can't get ENOUGH of it.

 

When I was in Puerto Rico in 94 for 3 weeks, I realized just how much these people love it. They've got at least 2 big promotions down there, with TV, plus access to WWE TV. It's dubbed in Spanish for them and for some reason, my countrymen absolutely LOVE babyfaces. Some of them know that wrestling isn't legitimate, but they don't care...it's something that they can cheer for and be passionate about.

 

I GUARANTEE you all that if you ask most of the people on the island when they started liking Randy Orton, they'll tell you either the moment he pinned Benoit clean (they traditionally RESPECT the shit out of clean finishes) or the next night when he was kicked out of Evolution, because they felt sorry for him.

Some provinces in Canada speak French (Montreal already being named), but this is the first time where they've gone to a non-English or French speaking country for a PPV.

Well I went to the show...the set was pretty and the fireworks wee nice but I thought the first ppv ever in the caribbean could have been a lot better

 

 

The show was shedules to start at around 9 but I got to the coliseo at 5 and there was a lot of other people. I tried to see if there were any wrestlers around but there weren't they were probably already inside.

 

 

They didn't open the doors until 8 so some people got mad and started trying to kick it open until they finally let us in. there was a lot of puerto rican celebrities including Tego Calderon and Vico - C .

 

Finally they introduced J.R and the King and then Hugo and Carlos to a huge ovation. Lillian Garcia sang " La Borinqueña" and then said the WWE had a little present for the boricuas so Stacy and some other divas came out and danced a little.

 

Finally some wrestling as the "special match" as they referred to it started with la ressistance vs rosey and the hurricane who got a lot of cheers. The faces won

 

Eugene and Regal vs Christian & Tomko , the match wasn't all that but we were all just excited to see Eugene live.

 

Lita vs Trish I had a great time during this match because we were chanting Maldita puta at Trish and Maldita bellaka at Lita so it was kinda funny they didn't know what we were saying.

 

Shelton vs Maven we were chanting "tu eres pato!" at Maven and I don't know if he understood us but he didn't look that mad and he told us to shut our mouths.

 

The announcer match made me really mad and I don't know who the fuck started that Jerry chant.

 

Kane and Snitsky killed the crowd as we all sitted down during this match.

 

The elimination chamber saved the show and the coliseo went crazy when batista did the batista bomb and orton did the RKO everybody stood up and chanted "ustedes son unos rompe culos" at them. After the match Batista came back and posed in the ring.
