Game Rage Only Fans at Game Rage or rather only fans slash game raging.
(01:55):
We're going to have to start an only fans. We want to fucking be able to afford to go to WWE events now, apparently, especially WrestleMania.
I can't say that I'm surprised by this, but I'm still still fucking outraged and disappointed that it's that's happening and it's not going to change.
I know that there's no amount of bitching that's going to change this.
(02:16):
So prior or contrary to probably what you're thinking I'm mad about, it has nothing to do with them.
Like, oh, a storyline or that. No, it's actual money.
Like it's WrestleMania prices, WrestleMania ticket prices.
I'm sure it's Cody's fault. It's got some some way.
Well, it's the reason why is because they're paying Cody Rhodes too much money for the shitty service he provides.
(02:38):
If Cody Rhodes was making less money, we wouldn't have to pay seventeen dollars to go fucking see WrestleMania.
All right. But I digress.
The principle of the matter is WrestleMania tickets just had the pre sale.
They went on pre sale. And I mean, for both nights for lower bowl fucking seats, seventeen dollars for two nights, man.
(03:01):
That's 16 or is that 650? No, 750.
Wait, no, what I said? Yeah. So it's like 750 apiece. Yeah.
Right. 50. I don't know numbers. But anyway, 850, 850 a night.
Fuck, man. Those same tickets for both nights just a year ago at WrestleMania 40 mid 300s, low 400s.
(03:25):
If you got them direct and these are from direct, these are resellers.
OK, these are direct. Now, I'm going to tell you right now, the nose bleeds nose bleeds thousand dollars both nights.
And I kind of knew this beforehand.
I was very skeptical because I was already looking and there were people that are resellers that were already reselling tickets and they hadn't even been released yet.
(03:51):
And I was looking at the prices and it was the cheapest shit you could find was like twenty six hundred dollars for like it's AIDS.
It was bad. You know, in Australia, they have a fucking thing where you can only make 10 percent additional to the original cost of the fucking thing.
Like that should be here in the U.S.
(04:12):
So that you're not making three or four times the amount on a fucking ticket that should only be worth, you know, its actual face value plus 10 percent.
Yeah, 10 percent or whatever, because that's what ends up happening is these assholes make a shit ton of accounts.
That's why we can't get tickets is because assholes make a shit ton of email accounts.
They have five, six, seven people because they can afford to pay them.
And bots. And bots. And they go in and fucking probably the bots that listen to this fucking podcast.
(04:35):
But they go in and they make multiple accounts. They get pre-sale codes.
They go in and they jam that shit up.
And then, yes, they're paying an initial investment of 10 or 15 grand to buy a bunch of these tickets for both nights, let's say.
But then they're going to roll out with like 100 fucking grand at the end of it.
Like they're going to fucking roll out a shit ton of money with the markups that they're doing on these things.
(04:56):
So it's insane. And it's got to fucking stop.
But it's not because WWE is going to keep charging these prices.
Now, essentially what they have done is the people who love their product.
Right. This is like your hard middle class working American.
And maybe even some of the some of the the poverty class Americans that support their product and they buy stuff.
(05:19):
They can never afford to go to WrestleMania now.
Yeah. Peacock is the is the only way to really watch PLEs.
And that's the other thing, too. If I was going to pay a thousand dollars to sit in the nosebleeds at that point, you're watching it on a TV.
You're not even fucking you can't even see shit. People are looking like fucking ants down there.
Why would you pay that much money? No, please. Sees for WrestleMania used to be 50 to 100 dollars a P like per night.
(05:46):
I was very much prepared to drop like five, six hundred bucks to just get secure tickets because I figured, OK, it's probably be like 100 bucks a night for nosebleeds.
And fuck, we can go to both nights. It's 200 bucks.
Plus the fees looking at six, seven hundred bucks, right? Like to get three tickets so we can all go. Everybody can fucking, you know, experience WrestleMania.
(06:08):
Yes, it's in the nosebleeds. But like, it's not necessarily about that, especially if you go with people who like you want to go and watch wrestling with.
And because because me and Ian, the guy who went to the W.W. we were both on it trying to like get the tickets.
And when we saw that shit, I was like, oh, hell no, because we got the first presale was for not even floor seats.
This was for like, like I said, lower bowl, seventeen hundred dollars.
(06:30):
I'm like two nights, 17, no fucking way, because then it's in Vegas.
So then what we got to do, we got to rent an Airbnb to go there and then we got to split that.
That's like that's like a fucking three grand trip for everybody to pay for.
And I'm like, fuck that. Just to go just to basically go to WrestleMania and watch it like what?
Just watch it like you're going to watch most of it on the TV anyways, because like they're so far fucking away.
(06:52):
No dice. Not paying that much money for that.
Yeah, it's like the value is not worth the costs.
Yeah, it's not. But what's crazy is people are paying those prices to do this because people want the experience of going to WrestleMania.
And I get it. But for me, it's not worth the money to do that.
It's just not worth it. I could we could stay at home and do a live fucking broadcast, live commentary of fucking watch WrestleMania or really.
(07:18):
We're probably not even going to do that.
We might just do a WrestleMania watch party and just fucking like we'll do podcasts talking about each night afterwards or whatever,
because that's what we and Ian were talking about was like, oh, I was like, you guys could just come over and I could set up the fucking projector
and we could just fucking watch it on this big ass fucking screen.
We just watch it fucking here. Christ.
(07:41):
I mean, I was like, shit, bro, I charge you fucking a hundred dollars a person. It's still cheaper if I charge a hundred dollars a night per person to come watch this.
It's still infinitely cheaper to basically just do the same thing.
So I just it fucking pisses me off to no end, man.
But again, this is this is capitalism. This is how it works. I get it. I can still be mad about it.
At this point, it was expected. Yeah, because if these guys are going to try to.
(08:05):
They've got to make their four billion dollars or whatever the fuck were eight billion, whatever the fuck, four trillion dollars or whatever they bought fucking to be W.E.
for if they're going to close the gap quicker, it's like WrestleMania is probably going to be one of the quicker ways to do it.
By tripling or quadrupling the price of the fucking ticket.
Now, I will say this. I hope that AEW learns from this and continues to lower their ticket prices.
(08:31):
I'm not going to let people to come. There ain't nobody going to this shit, dude.
I'm serious. The next time they come out here to Ontario or wherever, we're going just to go.
Non camera side. Yeah. Shit. They might actually shoe hook.
They might shoe hook. They might make us go to camera side so they could fill out.
Yeah, I'm sure they will because there's like nobody going to these shows. Yeah.
So. Good guy AEW.
(08:56):
The wrestling, even though the fucking storylines and the wrestling is shitty, we're the best wrestlers.
Yeah, it's the it's the fucking it's the people's wrestling.
It's for the common man. It's for the blue collar man to watch wrestling.
Poor fucking Tony Khan, dude, just bleeding out, just hemorrhaging money, man, handing out like long ass contracts.
And yeah, I mean, I mean, I don't know how much money he has in his fucking pocket.
(09:22):
He's just an oil tycoon or what the fuck the deal is that he's capable.
Yeah, his dad's like some kind of like oil baron or some shit. I don't know.
But I mean, man, how much fucking money do you have that there's no way he's making money?
They have a lot. No, there's no fucking way. There's no fucking way of making money.
Absolutely not. All right. Let's see. Here we go. What does AEW got?
(09:44):
Anything we could potentially go to? Why are they so on the East Coast? Fuck the East Coast.
All right. They don't come out to us. It's not it's not feasible to them.
It's just there's no money in it. Man, we're going to have to go.
It looks like we're going to have to go to fucking everything.
Everything's in fucking Florida because they have this fucking Jaguars fucking stadium that they own or whatever.
I mean, if anything happens, it's like once we get we get one or two pay per views here and maybe one fucking AEW Dynamite or some shit.
(10:12):
Yeah, they have nothing scheduled for the rest of the year out here and they have nothing scheduled for 25 Vegas, dude.
Nothing for twenty twenty five even do that. The shit that they have. I mean, they have shit February.
They're going to Australia. You fucks can go to Australia, but you can't come to the West Coast.
They're going to London for a forbidden door. Apparently next year in August, you can go to London, but you can't come to fucking Ontario.
(10:39):
That's you know, they're stupid somewhat because at least WWE is like, maybe we should check to see if there's even an audience to even clear this to.
It's like now we're going to go to London anyway. We don't care what the and yeah, they did fill out what Wembley Stadium for all out.
That's true. But also when you're not 100 percent sure when you're not 100 percent sure about even filling out a W Dynamite, their weekly program,
(11:08):
it's like how could you even conceivably believe that you would? Oh, we're going to Australia. We're fucking going to London to do these PLEs, not knowing if people are going to show up.
I will say this. The ticket prices we paid for those WWE live events is for that. Those nodes, please.
We paid like forty five, but it was like it was like nothing. And that was a resale ticket. That wasn't even directly from them.
(11:29):
So, you know, the recent like the original price was probably like thirty fucking dollars.
Yeah. So if we could get and the only reason we bought from a reseller for that event was because this was a literal last minute fucking thing.
We did it like the day before. Yeah. Let's go do this. The next one we go to, if we buy it from WWE, that's that's worth it.
I pay a little more to maybe get floor seats at a live event. That's how we're going to be able to go see WWE now.
(11:53):
Just doing the non-televised live events. That's like what we're going to get to fucking afford to go see.
Yeah. I mean, do you really would you really want to see stories played out? Promo's being cut at.
Smackdown or Raw and have it be a three hour program or would you rather see fucking rast?
Yeah, I will say that format of the WWE.
(12:19):
Live show is way better than Raw or Smackdown. It's way fucking better, man, because it's just getting to the shit you get like maybe one fucking promo cut, maybe two about the shirts.
And then that's it. But everything else is all fucking rastling. I mean, we got what?
Like nine matches and three of them were tied for title matches with 10. Right.
And like almost half of them were titled by like for titles, dude. That was fucking cool.
(12:44):
We got a steel cage match. You don't get to see that show on fucking raw like you to steel cage match.
I think we had a last man standing match like fuck, man. No holds barred match. We had like a fucking L.A. street fighter or whatever.
That was cool. And also it's like some of those matches end up being rehearsals for the pay per views or even some of the matches.
Yeah. Then up on Raw, it's like you get to see why like how matches within the television program or like choreographed because they've already rehearsed that shit.
(13:18):
Yeah. Within the WWE live events or like the house shows.
Dude, man, even the WWE is not coming out here for the fucking rest of the year.
Everything's on these. The closest they're getting to us is fucking Arizona. But my theory on that is.
But they were here in September. So why was it? Oh, I didn't know they were here already in September.
But yeah, so basically we're looking at probably they'll be out here again.
(13:43):
I would assume it'll be like on the WrestleMania tour or the road to WrestleMania tour.
They'll do live shows out here because it's going to be in Vegas. So it's like it'll be a turn around for that.
They're going to loop it or somehow. So they'll probably they'll probably come.
I'd like to go to Ontario, hopefully, because that's just better. We don't got to go to all the way to fucking L.A.
The Coliseum was cool to go to, but fuck, man, I'd rather just go to Ontario.
(14:04):
We're talking right here and we don't have to sit in fucking traffic for hours and fucking just we're here.
And they actually had a raw here. I mean, because I felt like anything as far as like the Inland Empire goes,
if you were going to watch an event that we would just get the B show. We get like Smackdown.
Yeah. But they had fucking raw. Yeah. Last time they were here. Yeah.
So anyway, well, next year I'm going to keep an eye on the fucking schedule and then whatever shit's coming to Ontario for sure.
(14:31):
We're going just to go. If any. What?
I think it's suck my ass. I'm not going anymore. Oh, you're not going to anything.
No, I'm not interested. I'd rather just fucking go to see.
I'd rather just watch the fucking Pele's at this point. Just be over it. All right. That's fine.
Well, then I'll fucking go with Ian.
Anyways. All right. Well, fuck. I'm just pissed off about these ticket prices and fuck all these assholes.
(14:56):
Man, Royal Rumble is going to be in Indianapolis, Indiana. Jesus.
Fuck nowhere. Terrible.
Anyways. All right. Well, fuck. I guess that's the end of it.
You got anything else to add? Ticket prices.
Welcome. Shit. Well, I mean, fuck man. For the amount that they're charging for WrestleMania, all this shit.
(15:18):
I know they're not going to spend more money. They're just going to they're just upping the prices and basically going to give us the same fucking production like the production of the set pieces, the stage itself, the entrance stage for WrestleMania.
Yeah, man, they really are fucking us over on the goddamn stage itself of Raw and Smackdown where it's just half the goddamn screen and it's just set on the floor.
(15:42):
No more tight. I still gripe about that. That we're not getting the Titan trons anymore. Yeah.
And I don't know, man. I miss that shit. And it used to make raw more raw Smackdown more of a grandiose gesture.
Now it's just now. Oh, man. You want to go fucking yell at Brett the Hitman Hart on December 7th at the L.A. Hilton.
(16:03):
Fuck no. Oh, man. I had enough of him. I had enough of him, especially with that documentary.
I was an artist. Like he's going to be at a thing like we could just go and heckle him like I was an artist, man.
Oh, man. That'd be fucking hilarious.
But yeah, basically, there is a there's an event.
(16:24):
New Japan is doing something on December 15th in Long Beach at the Cal State University Long Beach, some fucking arena that they have there.
So that might be kind of cool because it's New Japan. I don't know. Maybe we'll go check that out.
It's on a Sunday from the goddamn it's all day. It's nine a.m. to six p.m. Jesus Christ. Wonder what the fuck that shows about.
I don't know if I love wrestling that much. I do. I love wrestling. So great.
(16:46):
Anyways. All right. Well, fucking fucking bullshit.
All right. There's nothing else said. I got nothing. Anyways. All right. Well, that'll be it.

Poor fucking Tony Khan, dude, just bleeding out, just hemorrhaging money, man, handing out like long ass contracts.
And yeah, I mean, I mean, I don't know how much money he has in his fucking pocket.
(09:22):
He's just an oil tycoon or what the fuck the deal is that he's capable.
Yeah, his dad's like some kind of like oil baron or some shit. I don't know.
But I mean, man, how much fucking money do you have that there's no way he's making money?
They have a lot. No, there's no fucking way. There's no fucking way of making money.
Absolutely not. All right. Let's see. Here we go. What does AEW got?
(09:44):
Anything we could potentially go to? Why are they so on the East Coast? Fuck the East Coast.
All right. They don't come out to us. It's not it's not feasible to them.
It's just there's no money in it. Man, we're going to have to go.
It looks like we're going to have to go to fucking everything.
Everything's in fucking Florida because they have this fucking Jaguars fucking stadium that they own or whatever.
I mean, if anything happens, it's like once we get we get one or two pay per views here and maybe one fucking AEW Dynamite or some shit.
(10:12):
Yeah, they have nothing scheduled for the rest of the year out here and they have nothing scheduled for 25 Vegas, dude.
Nothing for twenty twenty five even do that. The shit that they have. I mean, they have shit February.
They're going to Australia. You fucks can go to Australia, but you can't come to the West Coast.
They're going to London for a forbidden door. Apparently next year in August, you can go to London, but you can't come to fucking Ontario.
(10:39):
That's you know, they're stupid somewhat because at least WWE is like, maybe we should check to see if there's even an audience to even clear this to.
It's like now we're going to go to London anyway. We don't care what the and yeah, they did fill out what Wembley Stadium for all out.
That's true. But also when you're not 100 percent sure when you're not 100 percent sure about even filling out a W Dynamite, their weekly program,
(11:08):
it's like how could you even conceivably believe that you would? Oh, we're going to Australia. We're fucking going to London to do these PLEs, not knowing if people are going to show up.
I will say this. The ticket prices we paid for those WWE live events is for that. Those nodes, please.
We paid like forty five, but it was like it was like nothing. And that was a resale ticket. That wasn't even directly from them.
(11:29):
So, you know, the recent like the original price was probably like thirty fucking dollars.
Yeah. So if we could get and the only reason we bought from a reseller for that event was because this was a literal last minute fucking thing.
We did it like the day before. Yeah. Let's go do this. The next one we go to, if we buy it from WWE, that's that's worth it.
I pay a little more to maybe get floor seats at a live event. That's how we're going to be able to go see WWE now.
(11:53):
Just doing the non-televised live events. That's like what we're going to get to fucking afford to go see.
Yeah. I mean, do you really would you really want to see stories played out? Promo's being cut at.
Smackdown or Raw and have it be a three hour program or would you rather see fucking rast?
Yeah, I will say that format of the WWE.
(12:19):
Live show is way better than Raw or Smackdown. It's way fucking better, man, because it's just getting to the shit you get like maybe one fucking promo cut, maybe two about the shirts.
And then that's it. But everything else is all fucking rastling. I mean, we got what?
Like nine matches and three of them were tied for title matches with 10. Right.
And like almost half of them were titled by like for titles, dude. That was fucking cool.
(12:44):
We got a steel cage match. You don't get to see that show on fucking raw like you to steel cage match.
I think we had a last man standing match like fuck, man. No holds barred match. We had like a fucking L.A. street fighter or whatever.
That was cool. And also it's like some of those matches end up being rehearsals for the pay per views or even some of the matches.
Yeah. Then up on Raw, it's like you get to see why like how matches within the television program or like choreographed because they've already rehearsed that shit.
(13:18):
Yeah. Within the WWE live events or like the house shows.
Dude, man, even the WWE is not coming out here for the fucking rest of the year.
Everything's on these. The closest they're getting to us is fucking Arizona. But my theory on that is.
But they were here in September. So why was it? Oh, I didn't know they were here already in September.
But yeah, so basically we're looking at probably they'll be out here again.
(13:43):
I would assume it'll be like on the WrestleMania tour or the road to WrestleMania tour.
They'll do live shows out here because it's going to be in Vegas. So it's like it'll be a turn around for that.
They're going to loop it or somehow. So they'll probably they'll probably come.
I'd like to go to Ontario, hopefully, because that's just better. We don't got to go to all the way to fucking L.A.
The Coliseum was cool to go to, but fuck, man, I'd rather just go to Ontario.
(14:04):
We're talking right here and we don't have to sit in fucking traffic for hours and fucking just we're here.
And they actually had a raw here. I mean, because I felt like anything as far as like the Inland Empire goes,
if you were going to watch an event that we would just get the B show. We get like Smackdown.
Yeah. But they had fucking raw. Yeah. Last time they were here. Yeah.
So anyway, well, next year I'm going to keep an eye on the fucking schedule and then whatever shit's coming to Ontario for sure.
(14:31):
We're going just to go. If any. What?
I think it's suck my ass. I'm not going anymore. Oh, you're not going to anything.
No, I'm not interested. I'd rather just fucking go to see.
I'd rather just watch the fucking Pele's at this point. Just be over it. All right. That's fine.
Well, then I'll fucking go with Ian.
Anyways. All right. Well, fuck. I'm just pissed off about these ticket prices and fuck all these assholes.
(14:56):
Man, Royal Rumble is going to be in Indianapolis, Indiana. Jesus.
Fuck nowhere. Terrible.
Anyways. All right. Well, fuck. I guess that's the end of it.
You got anything else to add? Ticket prices.
Welcome. Shit. Well, I mean, fuck man. For the amount that they're charging for WrestleMania, all this shit.
(15:18):
I know they're not going to spend more money. They're just going to they're just upping the prices and basically going to give us the same fucking production like the production of the set pieces, the stage itself, the entrance stage for WrestleMania.
Yeah, man, they really are fucking us over on the goddamn stage itself of Raw and Smackdown where it's just half the goddamn screen and it's just set on the floor.
(15:42):
No more tight. I still gripe about that. That we're not getting the Titan trons anymore. Yeah.
And I don't know, man. I miss that shit. And it used to make raw more raw Smackdown more of a grandiose gesture.
Now it's just now. Oh, man. You want to go fucking yell at Brett the Hitman Hart on December 7th at the L.A. Hilton.
(16:03):
Fuck no. Oh, man. I had enough of him. I had enough of him, especially with that documentary.
I was an artist. Like he's going to be at a thing like we could just go and heckle him like I was an artist, man.
Oh, man. That'd be fucking hilarious.
But yeah, basically, there is a there's an event.
(16:24):
New Japan is doing something on December 15th in Long Beach at the Cal State University Long Beach, some fucking arena that they have there.
So that might be kind of cool because it's New Japan. I don't know. Maybe we'll go check that out.
It's on a Sunday from the goddamn it's all day. It's nine a.m. to six p.m. Jesus Christ. Wonder what the fuck that shows about.
I don't know if I love wrestling that much. I do. I love wrestling. So great.
(16:46):
Anyways. All right. Well, fucking fucking bullshit.
All right. There's nothing else said. I got nothing. Anyways. All right. Well, that'll be it.
