If they book SummerSlam around Australian house shows then I guess not.

Sept 14 15 16

 

[FootyJunkie]

Nothing there to make me want to go, unlike last year

over 10 years of house shows.... meh

TV taping or GTFO

Other way around. Booking the house shows knowing whats going to happen at Summerslam.

 

[Bomberboyokay]

These tours are a joke now. Untelevised with 2-3 wrestlers who actually get a singles match at WrestleMania.

Card subject to change. They're not going to say that Strowman is the champion on a card, that would spoil summerslam.

 

[Bomberboyokay]

Vince McMahon and Dunn and co don't even go to house shows.

Strongly disagree.

Last one I went to had Cena v Styles in main event and they put on a fantastic match.

I don't see why televised vs untelevised makes a difference. Title changes rarely happen on raw/smackdown now days.

would be a nice to see a good promo or storyline LIVE to mix it up a bit

Do you guys not understand what a house show is or something?

yep... i guess its just too expensive for the WWE to do a tv taping in Oz?

Not expensive, just not worthwhile when people like Peter Sidorkiewicz will pay $360 to see John Cena do a practice match.

I've never paid more than $80 for a ticket.

But they HAVE done a TV taping in Australia recently; they taped the NXT Melbourne Show last December.

Only 1 match of the show which was the steel cage main event.

 

[Loonerty]

No... most of the event was taped.

 

[Demonic Ascent]

Only 1 match of the show which was the steel cage main event.

They showed most of the show on one of the NXT shows a few weeks later.

 

[FootyJunkie]

an almost dead WCW had Nitro tapings in Australia in late 2000, yet WWE can't do it?

Probably not the best example to use.

Not the worst card i've seen down here. Disappointed Seth isn't here though.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Me and my mate went.

Was my first Wrestling tour since 2007 and have to say it was pretty meh. Roman Reigns vs Braun Strowman and Hardy Boys vs Cesaro and Sheamus were good but the rest of the matches were pretty shite. my mate went to NXT last year and he says that it s**t all over this the crowd,the matches were way better he says.

Only good thing the ticket lady gave us $300 tickets when we only payed $70 when we arrived.

 

[brutus76]

Brisbane Entertainment Centre was 95% full.
Show was a 7/10.
Biggest pop: Angle by a mile then Ambrose
Biggest chant: DELETE DELETE DELETE
Best match: Hardys v Cesaro and Sheamus followed by the Battle Royal.
Best shirt: Some dude in a old school white WWF zipped jacket with the "Macho Man" Randy Savage on it circa 1989/1990. Spectacular.
Most Cena shirts in the crowd were: Orange or Red
Best comment by a kid at his first show: "Daddy he's cheating!!!!!" (at the Miz)
Hottest female (including outfit): Mickie James (stunningly beautiful at 38)
Reigns was woeful. Braun has so much more presence. Roman could barely lift him to Samoan Drop him through the first table. He had a mixture of cheers and boos. JoJo is damn damn damn fine in her orange jacket and mini skirt.

Not a patch on NXT Melbourne last year or the Brisbane show two years ago when it was Rollins v Ambrose.
