Any news on how the ring setup will be? I read earlier today that only about 2500 tickets have been sold so far. Will they move all the crowd to the camera side or will there be some other solution? Hopefully TNA doesn't return to Corpus Christi for awhile after this because they deserve bigger crowds for their TV tapings. Or at least not so soon after a PPV in the same state.

Lol, why wouldn't TNA go to Texas? Texas gave TNA two of the 3 biggest crowds in TNA history for Slammiversary and Lockdown.

As far as I know, 3000 tickets have been sold thus far and there's still about 3 days left. More local promotion and they'll get 4000-4500 by ease. Around 4k would be fairly decent.

Voted for Aries and Roode because I'd like to see them as champions more time but I don't think TNA will make them win, don't really think they want Chavo and Hernandez in singles competition

I said not go to Corpus christi again. Not that they shouldn't go to Texas again.

From what I read earlier today roughly 2500 tickets were sold for Thursday.

It'll still probably come off nice on TV but I don't think they will return to Corpus Christi any time soon after. Return to Texas yes, but not Corpus Christi.

I get your point, Corpus Christi might be hitting that 4/10 level.

Yeah. Could this being so close after a PPV be a factor for the low ticket sells you think? It's not that far between Corpus and San Antonio so one would think a lot of fans drove to San Antonio, and with mania having just been maybe people aren't as willing to put a lot of money towards wrestling during such a short time span.

They can return to Texas (some other part of Texas) later in the year. I'd say around August. Should be enough time to get the TNA fans salivating at a tv taping.

I thought of that the minute they announced the date for the taping, that it might be too much for the fans in just less than a month.

But if they pull off 4k, I think we should all be happy.

2 and a half K or 3K will also look good on TV, they will probably move everyone camera side and darken off other sections if they have to. But it has to be a bitter pill considering how well Jonesboro and Chicago did.

3k will look perfectly fine on TV, that doesn't worry me the slightest.

But yeah, Chicago and Jonesboro both did well over 6500, so getting around 3000 might be a shot in the ass. But again, it's 2nd time in Texas in just a month and it's WM time.

Yeah. It will be a learning experience for the TNA, who doesn't have that much on the road experience.

Waiting to see Hardy lose his title match (don't really like the idea of him losing but it's obvious he's going to lose). Also waiting to see AJ's decision, think he'll join the brotherhood

After perusing a couple of other sites and Richard Grey (He does wrestling news world) has reported that only 1800 tickets have been sold for the Corpus show instead of the otherwise stated 2500. Hopefully that is not true.
