So was the second row awesome?!?!?! I have been on the floor once... But never that close (once in the raised part all the way behind commentary).  We were WAY up there... I felt the pacing was off.  Probably due to the house show and all.

2nd row was awesome. We were right next to the "time keepers" area or whatever. We were about 3 seats down from where Lilian Garcia always sits. She looked over at one point and we smiled and waved, she smiled back and waved. Ryan Kerrigan was sitting a few rows behind us and after, as we waited to get up the stairs, he stopped and took a picture with my friend. Seems like a nice guy! The show was fun and sitting that close was kind of surreal after watching it for so many years. There was some super fucking trolls a couple rows behing us that booed the shit out of EVERY babyface that came down. Then they complained that everyone around them was on their cell phones [via obnoxious chant], THEN they complained that matches were boring and whenever there was down time [commercial or something] they would just keep chanting "COLE YOU SUCK" or "JBL YOU SUCK". It got into the 2nd hour and the security guards in front of us eventually escorted them out.

The only down side to sitting that close is that there's so much tech crew running around during the show and security stands almost constantly so you kind of have to look around them. Then when you stand to take a picture they tell you to sit. And they run to almost anyone who holds their camera up for more than 5 seconds and yell "NO RECORDING". I got off a couple snapchats though and told him I was taking a panoramic picture lol. Best part was Daniel Bryan! I'll post a couple pictures later.

Sounds fun! 

We (my friend who I was at Raw with) are planning on going to Philly for the Royal Rumble in a few weeks.  I also will probably go to that March 3rd SmackDown they were advertising (he won't, he hates SmackDown).  I will also go to the Payback PPV in Baltimore after Wrestlemania  and Summerslam at Izod in NY...

I am definitely down to hang at one of these (or carpool) if you want to go to any of them.  It is usually myself and that friend, and we also have a few other people in the Philly, NY, and DC areas that we go to shows with.  I will also go to any ROH show in Philly, Baltimore, or Virginia this year.

Here is to an awesome 2015!

Scarlett Johansson is set to star in the live action remake of Ghost in the Shell.  OK, I suppose she might be able to pull the role off.  I am imagining lots of green screen action.

I was debating Payback in Baltimore as well. I'll have to look at tickets. As for Smackdown, I usually pass on those. Ever since they swapped head writers with NXT is hasn't been as good.. odd.

I really hate, awesome looking trailers; you know what that means.

Super confused by the F4 trailer. Did it just say "X-Men: Days Of Future Past" or did it have something else on the screen? Like... "From the director of..." I watched it on my phone.

Outside of that it looks like a Nolan or Abrams teaser trailer. Which isn't to say it's bad at all. I want more though. Anything is an upgrade from those other 2 shit storms.

Daredevil is so boring. Why do these comic characters keep getting TV shows?

The Flash. Daredevil. That Arrow show. Those agents from SHIELD. Ugh.

I agree with Flash and the Arrow

but I grew up reading Frank Miller's DD and it changed everything for me
I think they are going to do it well.  Murdock was a very complex guy and when Ben Afleck did it...it was horrible and one dimensional


anyone seen 12 Monkeys on Syfy yet?
