WWE getting bold with NY..back to back nights at the Barclay

[Kidd Dibiase]

WWE has added a Monday night RAW TV taping at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York the night after the SummerSlam pay-per-view on August 24th.

WWE usually does not run back to back nights in the same city, let alone the same arena.

SummerSlam has been already sold-out and tickets for Monday night RAW is already on-sale. RAW should be a sellout as well.

Down below is what the advertisement reads like:

Come see the fallout of SummerSlam and all of your favorite WWE Superstars including John Cena, Bray Wyatt, Daniel Bryan, Randy Orton, Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Rusev and many more!

Wish it was the garden

Wonder if Roman will be in position to take it then

Summerslam card

Reigns vs Rollins
Brock vs Rusev

I see the Eater of Worlds following Cena on that ad.

*Still has hope*

This probably saves them money as PPV and RAW basically use the same sets these days They could leave it up overnight.

Why don't they run Raw in MSG?

Why don't they run Raw in MSG?

apparently its difficult/expensive to film there or something like that...otherwise they'd have a trillion major events there

Expensive as hell to film in MSG, so they only stick to house shows.

shyt isn't difficult, they've been doing it for decades


they're cheap, they want a show in NYC but don't want to pay that MSG premium anymore, that's why they do cheaper house shows on less expensive nights

I think it was Court Bauer on his MLW podcast that mentioned the Barclay Center is more profitable to run shows at. MSG has been the only game in town and need to step it up and get competitive.
