So this is the drawing power of jay white as champ......not impressed
Owen Sanders
How many tickets have been sold anyway
Eli Hernandez
all them. They are scalpers and Elite drones who are mad they can't see Kenny
Jackson Lopez
Is no one going to mention how fucking pathetic the entry price is to get into this show? You can get in for 30 dollars. For 30 fucking dollars. For a fucking Madison Square Garden show.
That's absolutely pathetic, those are like ROH at Baltimore or Atlanta TV tapings prices.
Connor Perry
scalped seats are going that cheap? were the tickets free or something?
Justin Kelly
Time to paper that house, lads.
Jayden Collins
poor ROH who put up the money for this show, they won't even make the money back from the gate the tickets are so low, and no Elite no PPV buys either.
the least NJPW could do is job out their champion to Jay Lethal
Carson Ramirez
Breathe with the tarps
Grayson Morales
all the tickets are sold. that is the second hand market ROH got the Money back fromthe gate.
Liam Perez
Scalpers paid full price for them when everybody assumed Kenny would be there. Now they're just trying to offload them and recoup a little of their losses.
Julian Sullivan
New Japan thinks they can just plug Jay into Kenny's spot because they're both foreigners and western fans will want to watch just as much, lol. They'd be better off making Ibushi champ and the face of western expansion instead.
>When you think you're getting Okada vs Omega V but instead you get another 3 star Jay White main event Not surprised nobodys buying on the secondary market
Eli James
Good thing the WWE is in town that weekend so they'll have easy access to tarps. AEW would never need 'em.
Michael Miller
Western expansion is not as important to NJPW as you think it is. It's a mere sideshow. They're doing well in Japan and that's all that really matters.
FYI, the decline in sales is due to oversaturation. Attendance for American events was beginning to drop even when Kenny was still around. They're going back too often and the novelty has worn off. The UK show is selling much better.
Jaxson White
What? Did all the elite drones cancel their tickets? Are you kidding?
Jason Nelson
If we are going off big Autism dave >Jay White Def. Will Ospreay (4.75) >Jay White Def. (Pin) Hiroshi Tanahashi (C) (4.5) >Jay White Def Okada (4.5) 5 stars at MSG brother
Joseph Hill
Omega and Jay are both primarily for the home fans. Japs love white hunks
Xavier Gray
Yes. a cody match would of been better the Ibushi vs Naito
William Howard
the ones who will be there are going to be angry as shit. imagine if WWE stuck to their guns and kept NXT on Saturday as well.
Luis Barnes
i mean Friday has fuck all shows. If no one buys your ticket i don't see a reason why they don't go
Joshua Murphy
>those same 300 dollar seats for wwe tend to be 800 plus dollars. So this the power of Jay White as Champ. If they didnt drop the belt to white I would drive 6 hours back to NY which I moved from last month to see Tana vs Ocarder or literally anyone else. Oh well.
I'd rather NJPW admit their loss and stop their west expansion, than succumbing to circus promotion and their marks. NJPW was better when they were not expanding anyway. There're more to lose than gain if you entertain trailer trash.
Ryder Reyes
Kys
Christian Perez
any updates on the tickets sold for the Dallas show?
Christopher Sanchez
Moving TakeOver on Saturday will hurt NXT more since the MSG card is arguably more stacked and people would probably see most of that roster only once in their lifetimes compared to watching Gargano and Dream for the nth time.
Jack Howard
Dumb question
Are the purple dots sold seats or available seats? I thought I read on here a few months back MSG was sold out or was I worked?
i'm in the "got into NJPW because of The Elite" group. i would have been concerned for a while if i had tickets to the MSG show, but now that the whole card has been released, it looks pretty fucking good. i'd love to be able to go to that show.
Aiden Collins
it is sold out, this is people re-selling their tickets
Henry Williams
So Jay White is a literal ANTI DRAW? Damn man... Thanks for the clarification
Anthony Gonzalez
Because a lot of dumb idiots thought they are getting Omega on top. Or Jericho on top. And they have buyers remorse.
Hudson Wright
The only real loss for NJPW was losing Omega. And even then Omega wasn't anywhere near the star level he is now until he was given a push as heavyweight. NJPW has a pretty good track record for finding new stars.
Brandon Young
>buying my tickets now >Inb4 Kenny shows up surprise Regardless, $30 well spent
