Not a clue got tickets for the Raw show in Newcastle next friday.

It says on Metro Arena listing it'll be (bare in mind this was listed a good month or so ago);

CM Punk vs John Cena in No DQ for WWE Title

Antonio Cesaro vs Zack Ryder for US Title

Daniel Bryan
Kane
Tensai
Brodus Clay
Santino Marella
Raw General Manager AJ
Layla
Eve

Hoping there will be Ryback too. Spending afternoon getting pissed/playing FIFA then going to be a menace at the Metro Arena telling kids it's not real :nod:

I'm at the RAW taping in Birmingham on November 5th. 8-)

Haven't watched WWE in about 6 months since I booked the tickets. :lol:

To be fair apart from lack of CM Punk it's a better list than the RAW one I'm seeing.

I went to the RAW showing last year too, wasn't the greatest card but atmosphere was quite fun and for £20 was a decent night out.

I'm buying a friends ticket and going to the newcastle show 8-)

WCW Monday Nitro
July 6th 1998
Atlanta, Georgia
*Hulk Hogan Vs Bill Goldberg for the WCW Title
*Sting & Lex Luger Vs Kidman & Sick Boy
*Diamond Dallas Page Vs Jim NeidHart
*The Giant Vs Jim Duggan
*Psychosis Vs Juventud Guerrera
*Bill Goldberg Vs Scott Hall for the U.S. Title
*Public Enemy Vs Alex Wright & Disco Inferno
*Chavo Guerrero Vs Johnny Swinger
*Chris Jericho Vs Ultimo Dragon
*Scotty Riggs Vs Scott Putski
*Chris Kanyon Vs Raven
*Booker T Vs Dean Malenko for the Television Title

You can criticise the business side of giving away Scott Hall vs. Goldberg and then Hogan vs. Goldberg all day long, but from a fan's perspective, and a UK one at that, this was the greatest episode of Nitro/RAW ever.

Randy Orton was also on the Lumberjack graphics but wasn't around the ring for the match.

I've just come to expect these errors now. There's so much going on, half of which doesn't make any sense even if you are paying attention, it doesn't matter anyway.

Every cloud and all that..

Remove the feature=player_embedded& gooseberry fool from the url.

No wait, is the worst.

The crowd, the rubbish being thrown all over the show & the piped in sound effects upon Malone slamming Hogan just made this 10 times better than it had any right to be.

Man that Malone can't clothesline :fp:

That's a bit harsh.

There's plenty worse than him, although I must admit, I haven't liked him since he left the Fed.

Must have taught Randy Orton...

I never really liked Jeff Hardy. I always felt he was more of a stuntman than a wrestler. He has some really great spots, but otherwise his ring craft is generally quite dull.

He just looks so laboured and sluggish in his movement around the ring. I was always more of a Matt fan (before he went loco).

Worst thing is that Jeff isn't that much of a high-flier anymore. Does he go up to the top rope for anything other than the Swanton Bomb and Whisper In The Wind? Maybe a token superplex or missile dropkick or something (does he even perform a suicide dive anymore?). I used to be a fan of his for all those reckless stunts, now he comes across as a shadow of that past self.

The Impact Zone does.

Part of the problem.
