    What’s the capacity with the top fully closed?
    This may not be far off a sell out really

    Particularly if they market right and put Finn anywhere on the card

    Not sure but well over 8/9000 I'm guessing. Surely this could be the biggest NXT UK live show along with been the first international show for the brand

    Think the May 2017 live event (Finns first Irish wwe show since he returned from injury) was the last wwe event here which had full capacity. The last few I attended had the upper tiers minus Block L curtained off

    I'm not putting people off, as I understand a lot of people might not be able to do the Monday morning ticket thing.

    I will say pre-sales tend to only have a very few number of "great" seats available and a smattering of good seats. It's not a full release, and at this point, IF YOU CAN, you might have better luck on Monday morning getting better seats.

    (Personal tactic is to wait till the full sale starts, refresh madly at 9am, and then choose the best priced tier seats. I think I'm at 7 or 8 shows in a row now where I've got the center tiered seats, about 10-13 rows back, which I feel is the best view in the house. Mind, this show will likely be a different set up for those in the front row, in terms of different railings and probably a lesser number of little kids).

    Not hearing anything back from TM about the refund

    I'll try and get something for the ticket nearer the time hopefully

    Think we will get Walter vs Finn at takeover Tampa and not in Dublin sadly. What would be cool would be Imperium vs Finn and 3 others in Dublin

    Three get 10% allocation - with the set up and sections cornered off id say the capacity will be set to 6,000 max

    So at most they get 600 seats...BUT they get 10% of each individual section so a smattering of tickets around the arena...hence why they have very few ringside and itll be far easier Monday morning

    Does anyone reckon there’s much capacity at the €28 ticket range? Trying to figure exact numbers out atm and probably wont be ready for Monday morning but hoping later in the week would still be okay

    Got my orginal ticket cancelled but would be nice of TM to email me to say so :D:D. The 24hr cooling period is a good scheme. Seat i have now is a very good view and im looking forward to the event. Coronavirus may be the biggest heel i this

    Don't suppose anyone has a presale code they'd be willing to share that they're not using?

    Block G, Row 15.

    Usually get Block D in the same row. usually they charge full whack, but there doesn't seem to be any tiered seats for the full price?

    So same view I usually would get, but off at a slight angle, and cheaper.

    Looks like tickets are flying though.

    Love it, got Block G row 25. The price of the tickets made it a no brainer, should be a fun show.

    Ringside seems to be all gone anyway,
    And not many of the 40/20left

    As only lower tiers are open selling the majority of Thsi would be fantastic!

    Floor seats were gone straight away - and tiered tickets were gone for 1 to 20 from c to f. Doesnt look like its fully open as there is no 28 euro tickets showing now so looking like its only half open!

    I got block c row 20 so it will be good view and a bit of craic!

    So they’re put the map where you can choose seats on Ticketmaster.
    Block A and B have barely sold, but everything else seems to be sold quite well!

    Guess I will be the one to say it, but corona has now hit ireland with it's first reported case. This show is just under 8 weeks away. NJPW has already started to cancel shows due to it as Japan have been getting cases.

    There is a possibility this will get cancelled.

    Maybe. Possibly. Probably.

    But fact is, until it's cancelled, it's not. Rather wait and deal with that if it happens.

    Possibility, but I don't think high possibility
    Japan has almost a thousand cases,
    Apart from Italy Europe isn't there yet,

    Paddys day will be cancelled alright, to stop initial spread but 8 weeks done the line, coming into May? should be okay

    True. If it does get cancelled people will get a refund. I view it as a chance the show might go ahead right now.

    Ireland has had 2 confirmed cases. Both in high populated areas so there will be a knock on effect from that.

    True point tho, in 4 weeks this will probably be a thing of the past and WWE wouldn't need to pull it until a few days before.

    Like even today If we have a large event ban, it’ll be 3/4 weeks and reviewed

    Should be well okay by april

    Hope so.

    Got Trevor Noah in the 02 in 3 weeks, have a trip to London in 5 and now this is about 8.

    A travel ban or event ban would be a real downer :P

    I wonder are ringside seats mostly for VIPs/family & friends etc with only a small few put on sale

    The hard cam and commentary tables will have to take up a bit of the space down there too. Gorilla might even go here too

    looking back at a few old pics of past WWE 3arena shows and the pics below are from a SD live event Nov 2017 with the back rows curtained off similar to what will be at this event

    Given they seem to have removed two sections of seats at the front, I'd imagine the stage will be further forward than usual, with gorilla taking up the space between where the stage is and usually would be.
