Champs right. A lot of big towns in that area. But were people willing to travel from those towns on a Sunday Night?

You would think that diehard fans would make it there. I guess this country is as lazy as I am

Its a school night as well man. People probably didn't want to deal with the drive after the show just to get less sleep then normal.

Yeah that's true. I just don't understand how they had such a hard time selling tickets. You could blame the lack of hype but usually when WWE comes to a city like Cleveland all the retards come out of the woodworks and run to the show

You would think with tickets going on sale months ahead of time that they would sell better. It looks like the WWE name itself is no longer selling the tickets like it used too.

It's typical supply and demand Naitch. WWE's supply is so high right now that there's little demand for 5 star programming. People would just rather tune into Raw, Ecw, or Smackdown for good matches instead of wasting their time and money on a PPV

Your right. On a week with no PPV we can tune in for five hours for free. Back when we were kids I remember the PPVs and just getting psyched the hell out for them. I would go spend the night at my friend Danny's house and all day till the PPV started was hell for me. I just couldn't wait.
Now I might get excited for a match but never the whole show like I used too.

I remember practically counting down the days til a PPV. I would sit there going crazy just so amped for it to happen. Then the day after the PPV I couldn't wait to see my friends who were fans just so I could talk about it. It was to the point where once the PPV ended I almost fell into a depression knowing there wasn't going to be another one for a few months

Wrestlemania was the worst aftershock. The wait to Summer Slam seemed unbearable right after it happened. And the Royal Rumble, I didn't even care who was in it, I needed to watch it ASAP!

I totally hear ya. It simply just didn't matter what was going on, just as long as the PPV finally came on I was happy. And you're right, Wrestlemania was the worst aftershock. I remember when I watched Wrestlemania 9 where Bret lost to Yokozuna and then Hogan Hoganed his way into a championship match taking the title from Yokozuna. The thing I remember most was feeling super depressed afterward because that was also the week my Easter vacation ended and I had to go back to school with no PPV's to look forward too. I remember truly feeling like shit too

I've always felt like shit after a PPV because it's already nearly time to get up.

Even the one time I did see a PPV on your watch at WrestleMania, I still felt knackered the day after.

Should have come out further west. PPVs start at 6pm in my time zone.
