Negative fan reaction after PPV; "refund" chants heard

[leojay]

Pretty hard to compare a $2,000 investment into something you have always loved (pretty sure you've told me about your love for aerosmith seveal times)to a $100-300 wwe ppv event. Quite a difference in price, and chanting "refund" to me just seems petty. That's just me

I only spent $500 on the ticket and I didn't find the rest of the week to be a ripoff at all. I did lots of other things. It was the first time I'd ever been interstate, actually D;

Money is still money. When you get given shit, expect to hear angry customers.

(I'm not saying they should get refunds, but they do have every right to be pissed off)

I understand what you're saying. I guess I just view it differently and thought that the quality of the matches were good. Got a hardcore match, got a bionic elbow, got cesaro spinning' khali. Ryback vs Punk was underwhelming and the Truth match didn't have much build. When they noted that Triple H and Steph weren't there I expected DB to just get straight screwed, instead of big show also hitting Orton. I thought the returning fired ref was a good touch. I didn't hate it.

I'll address the part where you questioned if I'd be different. My answer is yes. I wouldn't spend my hard earned money and sit at a WWE ppv event (Something i've never been to) and bitch and moan. I'm smart enough to look at the card and come up with an idea on what I think would happen. If I was there I would have had a few beers and enjoy myself regardless. That's just me though

I thought the event was pretty good to be honest, there was some good wrestling going on. Some of the matches weren't built up properly (R. Truth) but outside of that they all were pretty good at telling the stories they set out to tell. The ending was alright, because I know what they are doing.

Anyways, I agree with you about that cable company. I can't believe they would even think about giving money back. It just opens them up for the same kind of stuff to go on further down the line. I would imagine people will ask for it, even if they enjoyed the show to see if they can.

That's a great point about having a ball if you're going to a show, any show. That being said Going into this show, you should have expected very little (as you said) They've been making sure to not give definitive finishes to the title feud, so there wasn't much reason to believe this would be different (or if you prefer, you know this show was filler going in so there won't be a satisfying payoff), there was a bunch of matches with no build at all, and a match with Ryback in it. If you paid $60 expecting anything different, that's on you. But I can understand going to this show only caring about the main event or something like that.

From what I heard from people who streamed it, this was actually a surprisingly good show. There was a whole lot of entertaining stuff on it and some unique moments like the crab-walk, so glad you enjoyed it bro.

I don't see how the guys who asked for refunds have a case. They got what was advertised, but... oh, whatever.

I guess when you sum it up like that it wasn't too bad. I personally really liked the ADR/RVD match and the Rhodes Family/Shield match, especially the latter of the two. But when you look at the rest of the PPV you can't help but feel at least a little ripped off when you look at the quality of the last few shows.

Oh well. Either way, I guess its good to end a silly online argument in a non-"you're a fucking idiot you fucking douche and so is your mother get a life" way

I like that it was a face thing to do from the "Vs the Corporation" angle for Big Show, but yet a heel angle by completely eliminating any chance of a champion being named.

I've been called worse and everyone on xbox live has fucked my mother. So, there's that.

 

[T.R.I.C]

Yeah, I'd be pretty pissed too. That ending was something you'd see on Raw, not on a pay per view. The Rhodes match should have been in the main event slot if there were going to end the WWE title match like that.

It was the worst way to end a ppv, honestly. I said it last night when show came out, NoC isnt shit compared to this horrible ending. I guess a ton of people got lucky enough to watch the Rhodes family vs the shield, because it was the only thing entertaining i saw last night. I get it will probably work for tonight and moving forward, but if i paid to be in a seat last night i would have been pissed off and would have asked for my money back too.

It does make me a little more interested in what happens on Raw tonight, but its about 99% Rhodes 1% wtf did show do?
