MSG, Flair, Foley, Austin and more….
I just received a note from James Eng, he went to MSG today to buy tickets for RAW/ECW 8/13 show:
Hi Georgie, Just wanted to let you know that tickets for WWE RAW/ECW at Madison Square Garden 8/13/07 has been changed to Monday morning, April 23rd @ 9:00 am.
Tickets was supposed to be on sale today, 4/21 @ 12noon, I just came from the MSG box office today, when I got there @ 11:30am there was no lines at all, so I asked at the tickets sales window, the lady told me to come back to the box office Monday, 4/23 at 9:00am. Take care, James Eng from Manhattan.

Hey Georgie, whats up, not sure if you ever noticed this but every freakin time a WWE event goes on sale through ticketmaster all the ticket brokers get all the good seats.
Here is an example, a place called buytickets.com some how got rows A threw C in section 7 and 15 seats in each row, now they want close to $1,700 for each seat in row A.
I have a feeling the rest of ringside for MSG is already bought out like that to, I have a feeling that WWE fans well get screwed again from ticketmaster and the scalper site as I feel that the scalper sites have ticketmaster bought out.
This really sucks for a fan like myself who goes to 10-15 shows a year and can only afford the face price of a ticket and not 1,700.
Some even think WWE and the ticket scalpers are working side by side, how else can you explain that they always get the good ringside seats and the volume of tickets they get, yours truly a very PISSED off fan of the WWE.
I feel your pain, and I totally understand. We used to be able to get second and third row ringside for many years. (Ten tickets total.) Myself, Vladamir, Charlie and others were reserved subscribers. Then all of a sudden, we are told that we can no longer have those seats, when it is a TV show. MSG told me it was the WWE, and when I got in touch with the WWE they told me it was the Garden. That made no sense to me at all, the Garden even said to me, you have had those tickets for so many years, why would we pull them from you all of a sudden. We are here to just sell the tickets. Now it's just a game, extremely sad for a true WWE fan.
This was just in JR's blog yesterday:
Marty- I have not seen Vladamir at ringside in a good while, but he used to be a fixture on the front row at WWE events. I don’t know how he scored so many primo seats, but he did. Perhaps he has Polaroid’s of someone who worked in ticketing.
Now you know the reason why !!!!!

This was on the WE Channel last night.
Wife, Mom, Bounty Hunter starring former GLOW wrestler Sandra Scott, the opening of the show was supposed to have Scott buying a pistol at a gun store, but because of the tragedies earlier this week at Virginia Tech, they did a quick re-edit of the show and replaced it with her at home with her kids.
