Anybody go to WWE live events often? What do you prefer, House Shows, TV Shows , or PPv's?

Found this online:


Great match up, looks awesome from that view, and has an amazing finish. You only see things like this at House Shows.

I've been two two house shows and the crowds were live and the action was great. I saw a very good ladder match between Eddie G. and RVD. Low ki was doing his thing before he got signed. I saw Rumble 2000 with very expensive up close seats (as a promo gift) and it wasn't as good as it came out on the VHS. Couldn't catch high spots.

After seeing what's going on, I'm pissed I spent money I don't have on RAW same week of Mania, when this MSG house show is stacked bigger than Fastlane. If you're a Die-hard fan it's bigger than this years mania sort of.

I went to a few house shows in my younger days, I liked them. But I prefer the tv shows. I've been to a few recently and I think I went to a raw or smackdown when I was younger. Could've went to more but I stopped watching during post attitude era and didn't have many friends back then that were fans. I don't think I've ever been to a ppv. That's next on the list.

The one PPV I went to was Capitol Punishment which was enjoyable live but most people thought it was terrible.

Went to a house show and a Smackdown back in like 2000. Smackdown was way liver. When The Rock's music hit

I went to a couple of shows back in the day

Went to a house show back in the doink the clown era. It was at a theatre so the ring was up on a stage. The best part was when Undertaker and Adam bomb went back stage and reemerged fighting through the audience right next to me. Shyt was lit

I'm thinking about hitting up a garden house show soon

It was so fukking loud when Rock came out..in 04, it was ultra loud when Taker and Eddie came out..I think this was the build for Armageddon 2004.

Last house slow I went to was this

Included an opening segment in which Howard Finkel introduced Shane McMahon, who then introduced Vince McMahon, with Pat Patterson and Gerald Brisco; Vince then cut a promo saying he was glad Steve Austin couldn't appear and that Christmas was over; he went on to say he would prove his strength by beating Mankind in an arm wrestling contest later in the show and would have Kane destroy the Undertaker, then wished everyone a Happy New Year

I've only been to 2 house shows, could've went to SmackDown in Birmingham last year but I passed. First in 2013 and Second back in January. Wish I could've went back when I first became a fan in 2004.

Yesss just like when they chanted Eddie over Taker mid match when they faced off at Armageddon after initially being on Taker's side

 

[charknicks]

I would say going to PPVs are the best, simply because of the big matches. I would almost say that going to a house show is better then going to a RAW/Smackdown because the house shows dont have all the commercial breaks and 20 minute interviews all through the show. Way too many breaks during the show, just like its getting to be at basketball/football games.

House shows just have an intermission, and other then that, match after match happens.

PPVs > House Shows> TV shows

All the wrestling shows I've been to in my life have been non televised. A bunch of indy shows, the first and only time ECW came to Dallas back in 2000, and my first WWE event ever back in January. Presently I wouldn't go to a Raw. Only a ppv and house show. Raw is boring when watching on tv so I can only imagine how it would be in person.
