Kinda one of the last guys who broke into the indies when WWE was not really a consideration for all but a few.

I really see her getting picked up by wwe at some point. It may be me being hopeful and it isn't based on anything, but I really see her getting picked up by them.

70 bucks per night for BOLA, drat

Hopefully that's just for the weekend because of the all the big names they're booking and not the regular price going forward

I feel like the last two years have dictated ticket sales too. I really hope this isn't permanent. I'd hate to see PWG price themselves out of getting potential new audience members.

I mean, on some level they'd be stupid to not charge as much as they can get away with until tickets stop selling out in three minutes every show.

Heard mixed things. But I personally think she'd prefer to start a family over a WWE/NXT contract. But she's very much on WWE's radar.

Hope she wrestles in the WWE Women's Classic if there is one. Candice vs Bayley is a career ambition for both too. I hope that happens.

I was really happy that she wrestled on the ROH card in Baltimore the other week. She's the biggest name on the indies who hasn't wrestled for ROH or EVOLVE. Her doing so gave me pause for thought whether she's overdue being called an indie legend or whatever too.

Capitalism demands. Seriously, gently caress scalpers, and if people love the wrestling, having $10 tickets is stupid. $70 for a fantastic night sounds good to me.

Pay the boys what they're worth!

70 bucks is honestly a lot though. I agree we should be paying good money for good wrestling, and if it keeps going up all they are doing is pricing more and more people out of their shows. Not to mention its 70 bucks for a ticket you'll probably spend like 20 bucks on beer 25 on a t shirt. It's a lot for every month. I'm fine if it's just for bola, they are bringing in lots of big names I just hope this isn't the new standard.

When tickets sell out within an hour I'm not sure the price is the biggest factor in keeping people out.

oh I read a typo then. I was trying to figure out how they could cost that much because Oatgan said nobody gets comped and I know workers girlfriends aren't dropping a drat grand

I mean uhh yes that $1000 is to document my evening with Buff Bagwell

edit: Buff is actually in town at my local dirt indie the same night I'll be in Chattanooga for SCI

Who is it pricing out? You'll pay $70 for lovely seats to go to any slightly big touring act. It's decent seats to a baseball game and the cheapest possible seats for UFC.
