I must’ve walked the whole entirety of WWE World and explored everything and I just could not find the gorilla position exhibit they advertised. Did they take it out or was it like extremely hidden somewhere? I walked everywhere and I couldn’t find it. Did anyone else find it?
Perfect seats. Closer than I thought to the ring.
Now that I’m starting to recover from the Wrestlemania flu the last few days, thought I would post up a photo from where we sat for the two days. I would absolutely pick these seats again if they were to do another WM in Vegas. Overall a great view of the ring, the ramp, and the stage (minus the stupid columns that blocked the entrance from view for a good majority of the stadium). Overall the people in the section were great too. Had a few people that seemed to think they should be the only ones standing for certain moments during matches but overall didn’t ruin the experience and we still had a fantastic time.
Right now, I'm using those plastic holders of the printouts, but was curious on other folks on what they are doing. Anyone using some sort of binder or anything like that?

Paid $724.70 for both nights
I'll go first -
Night 1: Rollins VS Gunther
Night 2: Tie between Oba VS Brock and Punk VS Reigns
So last year, I went both nights. Took us an hour and a half to walk 1 mile away from the stadium. So many people leaving you couldn't walk the street and escalators across the street for blocks outside the stadium.
So to those who went this year, was it the same experience? I'm not talking the 1 exit from the stadium itself (really poor design) but the walk past the Casinos right outside, crossing Las Vegas Blvd (waiting 15 min to go up an escalator etc). I had never seen something like that before so was curious if they learned their lesson yet. That's thousands of people trying to walk and not spending money on gambling, booze, etc.
So, outside of Smackdown, Raw, and WM, what were the best shows and matches everyone saw?
My stand outs…
- Dark Shieks “The Worst show all Mania Week” was at a brewery back room near downtown and was a total blast, and one of the funniest shows I’ve ever seen. Mermaid vs Reverse Mermaid, a “Pins only count HERE” match, and a “Two 5’5 guys in a 45 minute iron man match” that ended up going the entire length of the show via a tiebreaker overtime.
- Paul Walter Hausers hardcore match during MLP at Slamfest. The crowd was hyped, and he spots were fun and in an age of bad celebrities wrestling, PWH proves an exception.
- Slamfest Japan shows. Stardom and TJPW were both really good, featured a lot of AEW women’s talent mixing in and the stage and jumbo video screen for entrances at the Palms was the best venue at WM week, a real shame GCW lost it for a venue where eye-lines were admittedly more difficult
I know there was a wrestlecon for summerslam last year I was wondering do you think they will bring it back this year or skip it?
I have an Extra Night 2 chair I want to trade for night 1. I am a Vegas Local
