Didn’t get seats, prices were double (sometime near quadruple) what I got for this years event, for worse viewing options…

Bit of a shame.

Yeah same here, I'm not willing to pay that much for such dogshit seats (no Ticketmaster, I don't want to sit in sections 141/142/249, please stop asking)

Got the Wembley tickets! Doesn't seem to be a Meet and Greet event this time. If there is, I didn't see the option. That's a shame.

they'll probably have those out and announced closer to the event so they can lock down who they're gonna offer

Managed to get some floor seats in Section V, so excited to be staring up at a screen for most of the event.

Can imagine alot of people will be holding off paying the extortionate presale surcharge on tickets this time around (not me as I'm a dumb mark)

I honestly don't think there are bad seats in Wembley. Last time I was pretty far back, but could still see all the screens and the ring clearly. It's a great stadium, I was really impressed.

Got similar tickets to last year.

Last year was in section C and this year front of section U for same price.

Was going to go for tiered seating this time but they would only give the dumb corner 141/142.

Hopefully better view but won't get to have BCC walk past me this time though :(

Wanted section m but they seem determined to offload the camera side tickets first. Ended up settling for section d.

I looked out of curiosity because I got sent like 3 more presale codes from shopaew and ticketmaster and the prices seemed to be the same as I paid last year for seats in the 200 sections :shrug:

I think I just lucked out last year with the entrance being on the north side we got 80 quid tickets behind the stage, where now that area is £200+.

We've settled for section 114 row 9. Looked like anything central was 175 or more.

Ill be bringing my binoculars I took when I saw G1 29 final in the budokan cheap seats. It's all about the atmosphere anyway.

I guess it makes cynical business sense to offload the worse tickets to the most rabid fans but it does devalue the presale "VIP" aspect that were not actually given access to the best tickets at all price ranges.


I wonder if they try a UK collision. Newcastle with international champ PAC please :pray:

Didn't get to go to All In 2023 because my work started layoffs the week the tickets went on sale, they're doing layoffs again now that All In 2024 tickets are on sale but this time I said gently caress it. Tickets bought!

Started Collision, which starts off with the last few seconds of Rampage and Kevin Kelly seeing a distraught Shibata who got hit with a low blow says "this is exactly what happened in 2017. Shibata is not okay." what the gently caress, man, what the gently caress.

-Clamdiggers of America meeting he can't reschedule. God, Nigel is so powerful. I wish he'd start reading One Piece, his Shanks slander would be a cut above.
-That spot of DG jumping Claudio and Claudio just swings him into the rails, if I could render gifs more easily I'd be like "when you try to glomp me at animecon"
-Every time I see The Righteous I wonder more and more what the gently caress is goign on with Dark Order. I turned on the Dork Odor a year ago, but man, I think they're not even on ROH?? Pretty sure they're only on the Real dark matches that only sometimes get uploaded to BTE, which is now over, so there's no screentime of any kind.
-Big Guy vs Smaller Guy is always a great dynamic, but I like the flavor Claudio gives in particular, his beefy lankiness is so good.
-Good match, but I'm not too impressed with the tournament so far, dang.
-I love u Eddie
-Hey, it's Killswitch! I like the silver highlights. Oh no the boys! :ohdear:
-oh no the boys
-idk why but Killswitch pulling the Collision apron and then having to pull the Rampage one is funny. Oh god the chair.
-Adam Copeland is deffo one of the lowpoints for me right now :/ "what kind of logic is that?!" same. "when you get pushed to a corner, you react with violence" bro Killswitch was just having a normal-rear end squash against people not even remotely associated with the CopeZone. Killswitch almost getting up was pretty cool, tho. Oh, ok, he is supposed to be petty and weak so he can be bitter and evil and see Cage was right.
-After Recent Events, I think Jack Perry can very easily come back as a face, so him saving Killswitch and leading to a pape match that's the Edge and Christian reunion vs Jurassic Re:Express would be dope.
-Rated RERA. ok promo, but Cage is going to rinse this coper
-oh gently caress yes, HoB vs Brothers who are Lucha
-"the house always wins, julia won the tbs title in Full Gear" and HoB lost two other matches that same night what are you on about KK.
-match was a bit rougher in spots than I expected, but still pretty good.
-Gonna have to pause it here, but yay, Dante Martin. Full Power Trios Top Flight is a good faction.

Shibata's initial brain removal injury is kind of bad taste thing to use as an angle to write him off for a bit AND Kevin Kelly is pure garbage BUT the Rampage match did have Tony/Nigel bring up that Kevin Kelly was in Japan when the initial injury happened and was 'one of the first people to see Shibata backstage after' and repeatedly pointed out Yuta hitting Shibata in the head which could aggravate his previous trauma.

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

When they did the announcer introductions this weekend Tony got a massive pop, then they went to Kevin Kelly and it was kind of a "...yeah..." reaction.

Nigel got a full entrance video and walked out to a massive ovation, it was great. He also looks like he's in better shape than ever, I was pretty blown away since I don't think I'd seen him in person since like 2009 or so.

Bad Rampage and a meh Collision but that was probably the best Righteous match I've seen (thank u FTR), and Big Bill's promo was excellent.

Before the match, Yuta threatened to reinjure Shibata. Kevin Kelly was talking about the DDTs that Yuta spiked Shibata with, both of which came immediately after the low blows.

He wanted to do the BCC head stomps too, but HOOK finished his post-match chips in time to make the save.

I did see Rampage and how the injury came up during it. Maybe it's because I got to cool down for a day or two between watching Rampage and starting Collision, but it felt pretty natural during the match, explaining Shibata's history and how the offense could hit harder on him than you might expect, and KK's story about being the first to see Shibata was pretty gripping, but after the match is done to drop the "this is exactly like 2017" felt super hosed up.

My 5 point plan to fix AEW:

•Love MJF but the face thing isn’t using him to his best, time for a heel turn.

•Kenny Omega singles matches

•Ospreay is probably the best wrestler in any men’s division on earth, let him go out there and become the top star as soon as possible

•The continental classic should have been for the women, give them a tournament and let Shida book it.

•Use your drat stars at the top. You have Moxley, Edge, Danielson (sometimes), Omega, Jericho, etc. These guys aren’t mid-card guys. You don’t make Adam Cole a 3 segment guy when you have real top guys fooling around the card. Use your toys Tony!

This is one thing that bugs me but at the Rampage/Collision taping this week Tony Khan came out and said they had a ton of injuries and illnesses lately, with this week being especially bad. So I 100% think they're trying to avoid booking someone, then having to pull the match last second because they pop positive for covid or something.

Don't care, it's bad. He's booking 6 matches a show, if once in a while one or two change then that's just card subject to change. If his wrestlers are popping positive for covid so much that it's preventing him from advertising shows then maybe fix that.
