(there always is!)

And the show you may want to skip?

 

Joey Janelas Spring Break 2

Why? Because we feel that Joey Janela puts his opponents at risk for his own benefit. He has been wrestling far too long to wrestle this unsafely, and honestly, we are astounded that this mark hasn’t seriously injured any of his opponents yet. He disrespects not only those who came before him, but his callous behavior and recklessness also show disrespect for the entire wrestling industry. Even advertising it as a “Clusterfuck” is disrespectful. We seriously hope he doesn’t do anything to put the promoter’s license being used for this show in jeopardy so he can get his rock off. And besides, who over 25 besides perverts and losers go to “Spring Break”?

Sadly while we do not support nor have any respect for Janela, there is some great talent on this card.

Already announced:

Janela vs. Great Sasuke

Mike Quackenbush vs. David Starr

Matt Riddle vs. James Ellsworth

WALTER vs. PCO

Nick Gage vs. Penta 0M

The CLUSTERF&$k

Hell in a Cell 2017 Predictions

Hell in a Cell is back! Tonight they are live from the Little Ceasars Arena in Detroit Michigan! At 8 PM EST / 5 PM PST! Betting odds are already out, and the lines are open until bell time on each match! Click here to check out the odds, and place your bets!

Here is the lineup and my thoughts:

Chad Gable & Shelton Benjamin vs. The Hype Bros (Kickoff Match) – I am always happy to see Shelton Benjamin. I think this match is going to be a lot of fun to watch. I have a feeling the Hype Bros are going to take this one.

The Fashion Files will return at WWE Hell on a Cell – This is one of the best promo sequences they have done in years. I absolutely love this nonsense.

 

Randy Orton vs. Rusev – I am still sad that they have Lana and Rusev split up. This match has some potential to either be awesome or boring as fuck. I am hoping for the former. Orton will be victorious.

Bobby Roode vs. Dolph Ziggler – One of the matches on the card I am looking forward to. Loved the setup on Smackdown Live this week. These guys are going to put on one hell of a match. It’s hard for me to pick a winner on this one. If its pure wrestling ability I have to go with Roode, but knowing how diabolical Ziggler can be its kind of a toss-up. I will stick with Roode on this one.

United States Champion AJ Styles vs. Baron Corbin – Fun fact… my friend is doing cosplay dressed as AJ Styles right now at NYCC. She looks fabulous too. She even got the soccer mom hair to complete the look! I am looking forward to this match as well. Corbin moves incredibly well for a man of his size, AJ has a lot to contend with if he wants to hold onto the US title. I think we may see the title switch hands tonight with Baron Corbin walking away as the new US Champion.

 

SmackDown Women’s Champion Natalya vs. Charlotte Flair – This is going to be awesome. I love both these ladies but as always I am rooting for Natalya!

 

WWE Champion Jinder Mahal vs. Shinsuke Nakamura – Why isn’t this in a cage??? If anything this match NEEDS a cage to keep those bastards the Singh Brothers, out of the match. I was infuriated at the end of Summerslam. Since it’s not in a cage, Mahal may retain the Championship… my heart is still with Nakamura.

 

SmackDown Tag Team Champions The New Day vs. The Usos (Hell in a Cell Match) – The Uso’s seem determined to get the titles back around their waists. The New Day have already proven to be formidable opponents.  We may see a title change, and I say that just due to the sheer ferocity of The Uso’s this week.

 

Shane McMahon vs. Kevin Owens (Hell in a Cell Falls Count Anywhere Match) – Who will fall off the cage? Who will be put on the injured list for the next 6 months until Wrestlemania? Why would Shane winning this match matter at all? I guess you have to watch tonight to find out! I think Shane is going to take the win tonight.

Sold Out Shows: How You Can Still Get Tickets!

As NJPW themselves posted, tickets to the highly anticipated G1 Special in Long Beach, California sold out quickly, in two hours after their release they were gone, and when they released additional tickets, they were gone in two minutes!

Yes, NJPW does have that many fans who want to see their product LIVE, but that wasn’t the end to the ticket hype, as the tickets also showed up on aftermarket sites like Ticket Liquidator, and a dozen tickets for the second night are still available!  (if you are going to purchase them, Use promo code TL4TH for 10% off!)

Another brand that seems to sell out everywhere they go is WWE NXT as they tend to offer smaller shows, in Armories and other smaller venues, so these tickets often sell out quickly. These tickets are also often found on the secondary market, [clink id=”85″ target=”_blank”]like here on Ticket Liquidator[/clink] or also can sometimes be found on [clink id=”69″ target=”_blank”]WWE’s Official Reseller Stubhub[/clink].

So as you can see, even if you miss the opening sale of the show’s you can still get tickets. Often the prices fluctuate on the aftermarket, based on demand, so keep your eyes on those seats, but if you really want them, grab them when you can!

Make sure you visit our Events section for tickets to, and listings for all kinds of wrestling related events from Independents to WWE!
