Obi Chris Kenobi Posted June 27, 2008 Report Posted June 27, 2008 Got TWO emails yesterday about this, so they must be desperate. TNA Wrestling brings its 'Maximum iMPACT 2009 Tour' to the M.E.N Arena on Tuesday 20 January 2009. Tickets, priced £45.00, £35.00 & £22.50, go on sale this Friday at 9.00am (27 June). To book tickets call 0844 847 8000* or book online at men-arena.com Speaking ahead of the new tour, Total Nonstop Action Wrestling president, Dixie Carter said: "The U.K. wrestling fans have embraced TNA Wrestling…the reception we've received so far has been nothing short of incredible and we look forward to returning in January." Featured wrestlers on the upcoming tour include Olympic gold medallist Kurt Angle, "King of the Mountain" Jeff Jarrett, TNA World Heavyweight Champion Samoa Joe, "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles, "Black Machismo" Jay Lethal, Abyss, The Motor City Machineguns, TNA Women's Champion Awesome Kong, Gail Kim, "The Guru" Sonjay Dutt, Tomko, "Cowboy" James Storm, Curry Man, Shark Boy and more! (line-up subject to change) If you can't wait until January, then get a taster inside the six-sided ring of "TNA iMPACT!" every Saturday at 9.00 pm on Bravo. Anyone go to the last one?
The Ghost of bps21 Posted June 27, 2008 Report Posted June 27, 2008 They'd better be desperate. They booked really big arenas. I obviously didn't go to any of the last ones...but they got good reviews.
Obi Chris Kenobi Posted June 27, 2008 Author Report Posted June 27, 2008 Aye the MEN is the one that WWE goes to for Raws/SDs each year. Can't remember how many people that is, think its about 10,000 or so.
luke-o Posted June 27, 2008 Report Posted June 27, 2008 I'm going to RAW later on this year to the MEN. From what I can gather it's pretty big. I'll go to this one, I didn't go to the last ones cause I couldn't find anyone to go with sigh. If things go well, I hope the do a PPV over here.
Obi Chris Kenobi Posted June 27, 2008 Author Report Posted June 27, 2008 I'm going to the Raw/SD tapings in November at the MEN, Luke-O Still not sure about this one though
Garth Posted June 27, 2008 Report Posted June 27, 2008 I'm really tempted to go this, but would likely go to the London event rather than Manchester as it'll be a lot closer and just generally easier/cheaper to get to.
TheFranchise Posted June 27, 2008 Report Posted June 27, 2008 Angle, Joe, Daniels, Styles and the Guns say i'm there.
luke-o Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 I'm going to the Raw/SD tapings in November at the MEN, Luke-O TSM-UK invasion!
Obi Chris Kenobi Posted June 29, 2008 Author Report Posted June 29, 2008 I'm up in the rafters both nights like, but I'll make a sign - maybe.
luke-o Posted June 29, 2008 Report Posted June 29, 2008 Ha so am I! Up in the rafters I mean. My ticket even says, "stricted view" or some shit like that. I think I'm going to be by the Titontron on the right side.
cutch Posted June 30, 2008 Report Posted June 30, 2008 The M.E.N is huuuuge, 18,500 for wrestling, 21,500 for boxing! I hope they are planning a single decker show!!! I saw a half full WCW show there and that was no fun at all!
Obi Chris Kenobi Posted June 30, 2008 Author Report Posted June 30, 2008 wow its as big as 18,000?! I thought it was only 10,000, shows you how good I am at judging crowd sizes haha. Its a bold move by TNA, be interesting to see if they fill all the seats, bare in mind they've started to promote this 6 months in advance almost.
TheFranchise Posted June 30, 2008 Report Posted June 30, 2008 I saw a half-page full advert in The Sun the other day. Was taken by surprise.
Obi Chris Kenobi Posted July 1, 2008 Author Report Posted July 1, 2008 I'm just not sure I can find it in me to pay £50 for TNA, even though I'm willing to cough up £60 a pop for WWE...
