Internally, some WWE officials are upset that WrestleMania 24 at the Florida Citrus Bowl has not sold out yet. They've sold 61,000 tickets thus far, but there are about 10,000 (nosebleed) seats left. On TV, they are plugging this as "new seats have just been released" to explain why they are still plugging WrestleMania tickets.
even though i dont like what may's doing, i actually want him to be successful at this bullshit because if they dont break whatever record their trying to break, if they really had a hard time selling it out, casual fans may see this at some sort of reflection on what is going on in the world of boxing.
I dont beleive it
Place looks PACKED
and ive heard tickets were doing well from everywhere else
when has it ever not looked packed? i read somewhere else that the ticket sales were going slow and other shit. Floyd better do something good tonight. he should do some mexican wrestling moves.
nice sig.. i wonder who made that gif ;)
Thanks for the K bro, I appreciate it. I will go on record to say Xcaret isn't as much as an asshole as some people make him out to be.
If he doesn't get destroyed in 9 seconds, then it just reflects the bullshit that WWE fake wrestling is. The reason boxing fans aren't buying the tickets is because we like to see boxing, two atheletes pushing themselves to the limits, using skill and science to beat the other. Boxing is real, WWE is just a drama. I don't give a fuck who's the toughest in the O.C so why would I give a fuck who's the toughest the WWE? That being said, I do actually want to see this just out of curiousity as to how they try justify a 150lb against a 7ft 2 400lber. They cannot just flatten him in seconds because A) that'd be a crap main event and B) he is a real boxer who really does beat people, he has pride. Putting him on T.V getting destroyed in a few seconds would just make a mockery of him, so the fight is obviously going to be almost equal until one wins somehow. Mayflower prob will somehow.
What's hilarious is that everyone thinks this is Floyd's fault. LMAO wow you guys love Floyd.
They brought Floyd in hopes that he would attract fans and sell out the event..
He didn't live up to what he was supposed to do.
Why pay for something that will be on Youtube a few hours later? The only way that it will be worth it, is if Bigshow fucks up somehow, and breaks something on Floyd.
Took you 3 pages to post in this thread, I am dissapointed in you bro.
boxing fans won't watch wwe because it's fake. i aint gonna pay for it and probably won't even watch it.

Floyd's problem is, he overvalues himself. He really thinks that he is this big entertainer, who is in high demand. He thinks that because he PARTICIPATED in 2 of the biggest fights boxing history, that fans are going to pay to see him anywhere he goes. The reason why i think this wrestling thing will turn out to be a failure, is because its a stupid matchup. Who is really going to take this serious? Its a 400+lb giant vs a 150lb fragile boxer! It just looks stupid! At least Tyson had an intimidating look about him, and was known throughout the world to knock people the fuck out! When standing next to bigshow, Floyd looks like an orphaned boy! Floyd was brought in to be the good guy, and ended up getting booed out of the arena everytime he showed up. Sad!
LOL proves Money May cant draw fans for shit.
Seriously though what a shitty main event. When I was a kid it was ROCK VS AUSTIN all the action you could want now its big show (nobody liked the big show) vs mayweather (nobody likes mayweather).
That's NOT the main event. It's more like the sideshow attraction.
The guy is a pisser but I hope it does well. PBF comes out like a real prick which he is intitled to because he has earned it. I wanted him to lose in dancing with the stars but when he did I felt bad. Wrestling is fake as shit because in real life the big show would squash PBF, I dont watch wrestling anymore, I grew out of it when it became a monopoly.
