Finally we have an event coming to us. Not sure if it is VIP or not but if it is, is it worth it? Has anyone spent the extra $?

Let me guess, you're going to the WWE house show in Abbottsford, British Columbia? I don't think it has the VIP experience, but I could be wrong. I know that the WWE house show that I went to in Spokane last December didn't have one either (since the Spokane Arena tickets are not by Ticketmaster), yet I did meet Cody Rhodes. Good luck!

You pay an ABSURD amount...more than a VIP ticket at axxess. And you get a random mid card or below name. I think the biggest name I have seen do this is Big Show. But I have heard LOTS of Santino, Kofi, Ryder, etc.

Tickets for the Providence house show are 600 bucks, which is absurd. You get front row seats and a meet and great. I heard last time, the meet and great was with Sheamus. Just a point of reference, I spent 480 for floor seats to WMXXX (7th row) and another 90 bucks for VIP axxess tickets. That price is obscene for a house show.

I might be more inclined NOT to slam the VIP if they announced WHO you were getting. But when its random and generally a mid carder to low carder.....no way is it worth it. If the price was less....then yes. Say its a $200 VIP experience and a front row ticket.....ok.

It all depends on your financial situation, really. If you're scraping by, then probably not. But if you can afford it, why not go VIP? So you might end up with Sheamus, its still a fun experience. If I was going to the show anyway, I'd rather get whatever bells & whistles were available too.

But I have heard LOTS of Santino, Kofi, Ryder, etc. The shield did once I think. I thinks it's worth it. Well I'm from the uk and they aren't the same prices as the US. But not everyone can experience axxess so vip is the way to go. That's what I have done for the show in novemebr in London.

They do about 3-4 of these a week for a year. 156-208 have been done and Shield did once...you think. Thats a .006-.005% chance.

I think he meant he knew The Shield had done the meet & greet, which could be valuable information for anyone considering the VIP package. Not sure why you went all Urkel over it.

Value is perceived, so you can't disprove it. You'd be surprised how excited some people get at meeting B or even Z level celebrities.

I was just adding to the list. I said I think the whole vip is worth it. Not just because the shield was there, I never said that. That has nothing to do with what I was saying LOL. Jesus Christ.

However, the OP is asking for opinions and reasons why or why not. This IS my opinion, just like any other agreeing or differing. For opinions that are completely different than mine, I am weighing in on them. Urkel? He said he thought it was worth it based on..... I am disproving that theory. Yes, @fusionpro is correct.

If you got $600 to drop on a house show VIP.....I think if you save a little more, you will get WAY more value out of an axxess.

Flights were £679 I think for New Orleans this year. Time you pay for a hotel, then axxess tickets then normally tickets to mania and the raw after and food and everything. It becomes more of a vacation and a huge tear in a wallet. It's very hard to get time off as well.

If you can afford it and will enjoy it, it is well worth the cost. It just depends on your recreational enjoyment of wrestling and your financial situation. Some people enjoy paying extra to have a meet & greet VIP experience, some don't. I've seen people camp outside of arenas for hours hoping for a glimpse or a chance for a photo op, or ambushing them in public, so I think there is value in a VIP experience as long as you can afford it and it will be a fun experience for you.
