MSG butthurt over WWE performing at the Barclays

[Kidd Dibiase]

Mike Johnson of PWInsider reports that Madison Square Garden isn’t very happy with WWE at the moment. Apparently MSG has been rubbed the wrong way after WWE has been running a lot of events nearby at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

Johnson noted that the straw that broke the camel’s back was WWE hosting all of their WrestleMania 35 week events at the Barclays Center in 2019, leaving MSG with nothing. As a result, MSG has reached out to other promotions and is now open to hosting other events aside from WWE at the arena. WWE has had a stronghold on The Garden for decades.

Typical New York arrogance

Can’t have it both ways Dolan

Either stop charging an arm and a leg for WWE to do live broadcasts there, or let Barclays take all of Cokeboy’s business

MSG charging too much

Maybe if James Dolan didn't charge such ridiculous fees for doing televised shyt at MSG they wouldn't have to go to Barclays

On Tony Schivone’s podcast I remember them talkin bout how MSG would never let WCW run events there because of WWE n Vince, now look at this story

Butt hurt? The WWE has been afraid to put a LIVE Raw in MSG because of them likely cussing out Reigns like no other city. Been afraid for years now...and that was to save Cena too. They should give rhe WWE a hard time..they wanna treat them like they arent good enough for tv? fukk em...

That damn sure isnt it...they just did the Greatest royal rumble for a money grab and pretty much exposed their women's revolution as a farce.

Not even close to why. Roman will get crucified in any of the surrounding arenas too. Its s short trip to Barclays or Newark.


The problem is that MSG charges a grip to shoot tv there. This started even before Barclays started construction. Hammerstein did the same as well which is why ROH stopped running Final Battle there until Sinclair Broadcasting picked up the bill. Truth be told, if Barclays never got built RAW would probably be taped at Terminal 5 or something

not to mention the fact the arena is built in a way where its much more difficult to set up everything, while barclay's is more modern and less of a headache to set up
