    Hey folks

    Been mad busy with work of late so not been on here much

    But I'm actually going to my first ever wwe show tonight in the point

    Anyone who's been to one's there or even ones in general have any advice for a 34 year old novice at these things?

    Here's the main thread for it, so you should find everything you need there: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056445057&page=179

    I'd just say go and have fun, don't expect much choice in t shirts though! If you're down on the floor near the front then expect a stampede of kids at the end of every match.

    I'm 6'4" so I'm used to the lack of options as regards to tshirts

    I'm assuming there'll be no bar at this anyways

    Full bars, open all night, with no ques - it's great!

    Longest que is for the merch stand, second is the toilets - never a que to the bar!

    Last year my mate was a very vocal "cena sucks" man - the kid in front of him absolutely HATED it, if looks could kill he would have been 6 feet under. Even screamed at him a couple of times - it was gas!

    My justification for being smarky is that, no matter what, Cena WILL win and that kid WILL get to walk away feeling his hero showed me up. Its a panto, and once the good guy wins, the kids will get to walk away happily.

    good start now in the next several hours get yourself to around 300lbs and a mix between a bodybuilder and a model look wise. Organize that someone you know tries to invade the ring during a Diva's match to attack Charlotte then jump the barricade and spear the hell out of them so as to stop them. Afterwards Naitch it up with a grateful Flair backstage who pays you back by getting HHH who idolizes him to give you a job as a wrestler (youve got the look afterall). Then after the show hit the town with the other wrestlers and start your CM Punk / Batista esque run at the Divas.

    A friend of mine is actually training at fergal devitts old place these days

    I currently train a bit of boxing and jiu jitsu in the off season to keep fit

    I told him if he makes it to a wwe card in Dublin I'd do a run in for him

    I have established a worrying pint per bout ratio

    Surrounded by kids

    Must not get drunk and swear in front of the many many kids beside me.

    Both really

    But definitely balor getting the most of the home team face support


    Cesaro is a beast in person

    Miz definitely went up in my estimation

    He played the over the top heel role very well

    I thought the merchandise stands were fierce expensive though
    I was going to buy a tee but 35 bucks is steep
    If you were bringing 2 or 3 kids to that jesus you'd be broke out.

    It's definitely an experience and as a friend of mine told me one off the bucket list

    Thought that might be the case alright. The vast majority wouldn't watch NXT.

    I only heard a brief NXT chant during Balor vs. Sheamus match.

    How was Finn Balor meet and greet session?

    you should have really confused them by starting a Fergal Devitt chant.
