Disapointed
Allen County War Memorial Coliseum - Fort Wayne
The overall experience was great, but for the amount I spent on just two tickets and the people that bought isle tickets got more autographs than the actual vip. My suggestion is either set earlier Tim to meet superstars or do like tables for multiple stars to sit and we walk through and get autographs and pic or more merchandise

For the low price of our tickets, the seats were amazing and WWE lineup of stars and the matches was very impressive. Overall it was a great night and will definitely be coming back.

Great show
Allen County War Memorial Coliseum - Fort Wayne
Show was great! We loved it! However… having floor seats made it kinda hard to see what was going on when action took place outside the ring! People controlling cameras and the screens coulda down better by showing that action on the screens above! Other than that we loved every min of it!

Soo entertaining for the old WWF fan!
PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh
I was a hard-core WWF fan, posters on the wall, subscription to the magazine, you name it. Could care about the WWE. Took my kids to this event just as a chaperone. I cannot believe how exciting it was!! From the different music to all the Trons, to the audience engaging each character, chanting specific things! Someone really knows how to run a business!! Nice to see HHH there too.

Awesome
PPG Paints Arena - Pittsburgh
Just like most WWE shows. Took my grandson to his first Smackdown l. He had the chance to see behind the scene. How they setup the car crash between the bloodline and Kevin Owens. And a huge shout out to Rey Mysterio one of the OG's that understands it's the fans that makes the show he got out of his vehicle and hung out with a bunch of us. One father had his five six year old son with him he had a sign that said it's my son's first wrestling event make it memorable and I believe Rey Mysterio did that.

WWE on Tour
There's no two ways about it — the WWE is the world's premier and most explosive wrestling organization. Founded by Jess McMahon and Toots Mondt in 1952 as Capitol Wrestling Corporation, the organization eventually became the largest wrestling corporation in the world, hosting more than 500 events per year. But it wasn't until Vince McMahon bought Capitol Wrestling from his father and became CEO in 1980 that the WWE gained footing as a legitimate wrestling dynasty. This was largely due to the massive strides McMahon made in turning it into a global phenomenon.
First, he signed little-known prospects like Hulk Hogan, Roddy Piper, and Jesse Ventura, all of whom went on to become superstars. Then, McMahon invented a little event called WrestleMania, whose first occurrence was in 1985 and featured André the Giant, King Kong Bundy, Ricky Steamboat, The Iron Sheik, Nikolai Volkoff, and more. Its main event saw Hulk Hogan and Mr. T beating Paul Orndorff and Roddy Piper, overseen by a guest referee — none other than Muhammad Ali.
It's not surprising, then, that WrestleMania would go on to become one of the world's most beloved annual sporting events. Additionally, McMahon wasn't just a behind-the-scenes businessman — he became a frequent participant in matches. By blending the business and wrestling aspects into a continuous drama, he lent the organization a soap-opera narrative, which remains one of its most attractive features.
By the late 1980s, there was a full roster of hardcore brawlers, including Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, and "Macho Man" Randy Savage. In the ‘90s, as spectatorship grew and wrestlers multiplied exponentially, the WWE added regular events like Monday Night Raw, Monday Nitro, and Raw Is War.
The New World Order (nWo) was introduced as a splinter faction. By the late ‘90s, the WWE saw a full-on renaissance, with new wrestlers like Stone Cold Steve Austin, Mankind, and The Rock being introduced. In 2014, the WWE launched a 24/7 streaming network. In 2016, the organization made almost a billion dollars in revenue, with an operating income of more than $55 million.
