There are very few bad seats in the o2, Dublin. Haven't been to a WWE show in it, but was at UFC 92 in January and we were in cheap enough seats and we could still see into the cage. We spent 50% looking in the cage and 50% at the screens. So you should be ok.

I prefer seats on the tiers (cheaper tics) - great view in the o2 as ShawnRaven says. I went for the cheapest tickets for UFC and the view was great.

i always go for lower tier seats these days if its a big arena, i have been ringside for a few american ppvs but you can never guarantee you will be sitting 1st or 2nd row unless you camp outside the arena when the tickets first go on sale

ringside can have as much as 30 maybe more rows of flat seats, i remember in at raw in sheffield in 2005 i was miles back despite being ringside (behind the announcers) and had to stand up to see

everything i have heard sounds brilliant and thanx for the advice, i prob shud have mentioned that i have 7 year old son/wrestling fanatic, would those seats be ok for him?

Even more reason to go for tiered seating rather than having to peer around people's heads/signs in the ringside section, if your not in the first few rows. Haven't been to the new o2 yet myself, but from what others have said, there doesn't seem to be a bad view in the place

There is a side note on ticketmaster's site for any wrestling events...

Parent's with small children are advised to book tiered seating

I took these pictures when I was at the 'Mania Revenge tour. I was sitting ringside, but I always get curious and go mooching around


Anyway, dunno if these will be of any assistance to you or not:


Standing at the very back of the second tier of seats, the third tier is slightly higher, but doesn't go back much farrer, so I can't imagine the view would be much different:

From the ring, looking up at the area i was standing when I took the previous photo:

I should say so, i brought my 7 year old daughter to the wrestling in April and we were 31 rows back and over to the very side, in block A but we still had a great view

o2 should be grand. Once its not outdoors in the rds for a wrestling show. Absolute disgrace
