This will be the best sporting event London holds this century, mark my words

£20 Standing
£30 - £40 Ground level seated

I'm going on Sunday
It's going to be FIT. So fit in fact that I am missing Neil Young for this.
am tempted now i should be getting money and sleep back from Wild in t'country
So is anyone going tonight?
I believe I am although I can't seem to find it on lastminute.com (stupid website keeps crashing on me).
Someone from work has been before and says it is truly amazing. He completely convinced me.
It's not sold out
so I assume it'll be pay on the door + they'll be bare loads of touts swimming about.
this should be fun
im gutted i missed Pro Wrestling NOAH when that came over.
From those 'in the know'
apparently they'll be back soonish - I'm hoping for an event down south rather than Coventry or wherever they were.
NOAH came over? excellent
I'm off to Japan in August and hoping I will be able to go and see some wrestling. Absolutely no idea how I find out about it though.
Zero1 are definitely on in August
http://www.zerooneusa.com/. If you're going to Tokyo they'll be wrestling on no doubt. I'd love to go to Budokan Hall one day.
I am, for a week and a half
do you know of any UK/US sites that might have information on this kind of thing?
..
"August in Tokyo means one thing as far as puro is concerned... the G1 Climax~!
Night #3 of the seven show tour is at the Korakuen Hall in Tokyo on August 13th, and then the group returns to the Ryogoku Kokugikan (Sumo Hall) for the final two nights on August 16th & 17th."
...
Also, NJPW have announced that Kurt Angle & AJ Styles will both be on the tour, special participation on two shows only - Osaka and the first of the two Tokyo Sumo Hall shows on August 16th.
where do you find this out?
it's a long time since Ive looked at wrestling sites.
damn
Im going on the 18th!
Zing!
...
Gutted. Too expensive, and ARNOCORPS on at the same time.
they were on the news this morning
they had some camp little man talking about it. he kept using the word "midgets" and saying that it was real and he was in pain all over all the time :D
so glad there will be midgets
so glad
that article is amazing.
'Ultimate shame'
“When 200-kilo guys fly through the air at each other, it could get painful.”
“We don’t only do glamour, we know how to wrestle – to take big bumps.”
'equally muscular gay men'
If anyone goes on Sunday
you will see me VERY excited.
I doubt they flew into Camden
I wonder if it's possible to watch this
then go straight to Arnocorps. It'd be a great night
flying in Camden Town is really easy
just go and talk to the dealers down by the canal.
It was really good
2 on 2 midget action at one point and the finale was 3 on 3 luchadore action. And we got a free ticket from a nice man outside. Only let-down was twats throwing beer around and shouting deeply unfunny comments only to be congratulated on their shit wit by their twat pink-shirted friends.
If you go, and you have standing tickets, get there early and don't abandon good views once the interval comes because for the second half we could barely see anything which was annoying. You can actually stand almost at ringside if you're lucky.
