All of the Legends segments and matches should have taken place at the Manhattan Center, while the current storylines should have continued in the Barclays Center. Duh!! I would have had both cards going at the same time, with a dual screen setup, and switching back and forth for the sound. I do like the idea of Raw Is War on the Network and Raw on USA. Just add the simulcast used during the Purchase of WCW. They could have even used both venues for a shared promo or 3. DX and Razor Ramon at the Birthplace Of Raw doing the 2 Sweet promo with A J Styles and the Bálor Club at the home of the Nets. Matt in Manhattan, Bray in Brooklyn. APA playing 5 card draw, while Heath Slater and Rhyno are having a Texas Hold ‘Em tournament. Brock Lesnar attacks Kane where the legends are to start the show, but gets laid out by Braun Strowman when he shows up where the SuperStars are to end the show. Vince running the Legends Show with Triple H, Stephanie running today’s show with Shane. The only real issue would have been the Legends card. Kurt Angle’s Angle Invitational...accepted by Daniel Bryan!! Ladder match Chris Jericho vs. Jeff Hardy Tag Team Tables match A.P.A. vs. Dudley Boyz Brother Love Show Featuring Stables: Four Horsemen, New World Order, D-Generation X, Evolution, Main Event Mafia WWE Legends Championship Title match Hulk Hogan vs Stone Cold Steve Austin They would have had to turn away even more people than they probably already had to if they gave you an option of seeing all the great legends or today's product.

The show was good nostalgia but now that I think about it and after reading what a lot of you said, they did make it as bland as possible didn't they? I DVR'd the show so I will watch it later to see how it came off on tv.

It funny how people are still shocked when the WWE hypes something up and it doesn't deliver. Oh and good to see Meltzer and others were spot on with the big Cena Taker angle taking place lol - I don't get why people listen to anything he says.

Sounds like TNA.

Reading the live reactions from people at the MC is priceless.
What we saw on TV from MC, then during commercial breaks they had 2 3 minute 205 live dark matches. And then they rolled out 50 inch TVs so the fans could watch the remainder of Raw from Barclays.
Who the hell planned this?

Good.
It was full of every single smark “gimmick” fan over the last 5 years. Constantly having to chant and get their crap in, hoping to get over.

I said to my friend last night that people who went to the Manhattan Center basically paid about $400 to watch TV which they could have done at home for free.

Did they really expect half and half when one arena had 15,000 and the other had less than 500?

I heard the NY crowd cried and asked for refunds when they realized they had to watch 2/3 of WrestleMania 2 on a big screen.

Everytime they showed Punk in a video package a chant broke out. If he came out I would have probably fallen over the railing.

I thought the show was a lot of fun on TV, but I definitely would not have wanted to be in either building.

Don't blame them one bit. I'm surprised they didn't start a riot, to be honest. If that was all they had planned, why did they even do a show there?

I honestly would have enjoyed attending and having no programming. It would have been very funny and memorable- but definitely nothing to "riot" about. In hindsight the attendees may see it as a very special, exclusive event. There's much humor to be found in it.
You have to expect that these TV tapings are solely for the consumption of the TV audience. They're all about crafting a "look" for the TV show.

I wouldn’t see any humor in spending almost 1,000$ and getting to watch a raw I could have spent half the money on and been there live. While they promised all this stuff and nothing happened
