So in the comments/quotes it says that is a Blue Light Discount for employees in essential services industries that Wembley Stadium apparently offers for every event
That’s the kind of stuff they should do here instead of 10% off McDonald’s
Regardless, discounts aren't a negative. I get that we made fun of UofL for free football tickets with a gallon of milk (as we should have) but they did what they had to do when their teams stunk and no one cared. It's what I've said about WWE. The prices were far too high and they needed to lower them and offer discounts. They did. SS will be a good weekend crowd but lower than last year and All In may do 40k-45k which is great but it'll continue to be a lower number each time they run Wembley. Nothing wrong with it. No one outside of WWE can do that.
If it was Kroger doing the promotion it then ya probably.
Take off two years for maternity leave then complain about not having a chance to grow
Never saw the appeal in her. She’s an ok performer but her strikes look sloppy and she has RBF.Take off two years for maternity leave then complain about not having a chance to grow
Let her go to NXT, TK. Not worth the bother IMO. Take Sammy with you — that would be two new roster additions to the NXT women’s division
It was something like that, yeah. Through Kroger like Laparka said. UK football was on tape delay so if they played at noon it'd be on after the local news at 11:00 and Louisville was going through the Ron Cooper years and you went to Kroger for free tickets. Both programs have come a hell of a long way since then (even though UofL is still overrated most years).
Apparently that Blue Light Card discount for public sector employees for All In tickets was just a discount code and someone posted it on Reddit so AEW moved over a thousand tickets today because of that lol.
Seems like if it's supposed to be only for certain people then there would be a better way to sandbox it instead of just making it a discount code that anyone can use if it leaks out. Kinda diminishes the specialness of the benefit a bit.

She showed some decent potential before Sammy knocked her up, but she wasn't a particularly safe worker so probably best she leave. And the women's roster got way upgraded over those two years.Never saw the appeal in her. She’s an ok performer but her strikes look sloppy and she has RBF.

So Ricochet is taking guitar shots from Double J like it's 1999 and Ciampa is in the Painmaker vortex about to wrestle a near 60 year old. Add Rusev getting matches but mostly losing and Saints not doing a heck of a lot so far and this is why I think sometimes we make a big deal out of these roster changes when we probably shouldn't. All four are probably where they should be right now.
With May, it's ridiculous how she's been handled so far but best guess is since they've got plans in place for SS, they're waiting until afterward to heat her up. They do similar around Mania. If you're not on their list of matches for a big show, you're in the background.

Ya I agree but Saints was getting some traction on collision with punk then when he left that’s when it went in the tank.
I think that’s why TK let Melo go when she asked we are basically trading bayley for Sammy/melo. They likely fit better and he knows he’s signing 7 or whatever that number is.
I dunno. WWE has TKO breathing down their neck. If you look at the current NXT roster, I'm not seeing a lot of future stars there. Vince and Bruce did ruin NXT but changes were made because they saw dudes who looked like Adam Cole when they probably expected more Oba Femi's and Randy Orton's. NXT does need bodies I guess but if Sammy can't even get on Collision, why would anyone believe he'll be on SD one day?
I think Sammy would probably be in AAA I don’t think he’s a main roster guy but would fit in a lower type role. I mean like you said he’s barely scratching roh or collision.
Losing bayley would likely be “clearing cap space” since she probably makes decent money.
"The guy could have added life and legitimacy to the World Title scene"
lol at thinking the AEW world title scene is lacking in any of that.
How long until WWE cans the writers and replaces them with AI since creative is becoming such a concern among investors? If nothing else it will save them on the payroll.

Report: WWE Planning To Increase Use Of AI
WWE’s use of AI has been heavily criticised amongst fans. Whether it be strange-looking WrestleMania match graphics which changed design by the week, weird video packages in which textures don’t look real (notably in El Grande Americano video packages), PLE posters, t-shirts and other apparel...

$39 is high for an AEW PPV get in price. Normally the cheap seats are around $30. $78.15 was also the cheapest price before they even opened up the cheap seats. Of course worse seats are going to cost less.

Meanwhile Smackdown this week only beat out their last time at the venue by less than 100. The last time they were in the same venue was for a house show.
As long as the fans were happy, who cares?
I’ve attended house shows before that were only like 60% filled and had the time of my life. Don’t know why wrestling fans care about attendance so much. An audience of one is what matters and that’s you the viewer.
Been to many, many live shows and it was the sparsely filled house shows that we enjoyed most. Best way to get autographs, selfies, etc because then they want to over-serve the fans in attendance.
I would much rather go to a house show than a TV taping. Most of a TV taping is watching someone try not to look awkward in the ring while they take 10 minutes on a backstage promo and commercials.
Sure. I agree with you there. But as long as the show is on tv and the product is good, I’m happy. If I were on Wall Street, I would be looking through a different lens obviously.
Aside from a bunch of good wrestling, Maya World winning a title and maybe Willow too
Well if you don't want to be spoiled on a debut (or multiple debuts today) then maybe stay off the internet for a while
WWE should just let TNA sign her because then WWE gets to use her whenever they want and it will be cheaper than putting her even on an NXT minimum deal.
