Question on this for anyone who might know: between what periods was this stage/entrance used in real life? And on what shows?
I remember it at Wrestlemania 8 but not too sure when else it was used.

WM8 may have been it’s first use if IIRC. Last use appears to be July 17, 1995 Raw as the July 24 episode had the RAW letters.

Question on this for anyone who might know: between what periods was this stage/entrance used in real life? And on what shows? I remember it at Wrestlemania 8 but not too sure when else it was used. The entrance was used periodically from 1992 thru 1994/95. Mostly on Superstars and house shows, and some PPVs. Most notably WM8 and Survivor Series 1992.

I remember it being used on Challenge in '92-'93 and Superstars had the "big" screen at the entrance. The camera would often show the wrestlers watching the highlights of their match back on the way back down the aisle. But WM8, Survivor Series '92 and Challenge are the ones I remember. Also the March to Wrestlemania 9 show which had a lot of matches taped for Superstars, Challenge, Mania and All American.

I know this thread is old, but that is exactly why I believed this thing appealed to way more people than most expected it to. Most of the complaints questioned catering to an unpopular era when the WWF was running on fumes. Sure, this particular stage was seen during the dark days of 1995. However, its origin goes all the way back to 1992. So many big names came through that neon entranceway from Hogan to Warrior to Savage to Flair to Piper to Perfect/Slaughter/Earthquake/Sid/Jake/Road Warriors. Its appeal stretches from the end of the Hulkamania Era all the way into 1996.

This was dope. Ive scaled right back on fig buying and sold a lot of my stuff but I still have a shelf dedicated to the entrance and the few new gen themed ultimates we have
Would have done the same with the nitro arena had I backed one.

This being the one and only successful Mattel WWE Crowdfund may have increased its long term potential value.

I’ll sell you the ring and entrance for $300 I have the whole set, ring, diesel, Doink, and entrance still sealed in the shipping box. Wanted two machos so bought two and haven’t really felt like trying to sell off the rest.

Were there tiers that were offered for this that didn’t get their numbers met? I’m guessing they moved one of the tiers into the base/early backers to get it fulfilled, if I’m not mistaken. Just curious if we actually missed any on this.

When the early bird was over there was only a week left so really no time to get any more tiers approved.

Their policy is half of what it's worth (retail or eBay) if you want store credit and less than that if you want cash. So I'm not surprised at your offer haha

This and the MOTWWEU thread seem like unnecessary clutter at this point. I don’t suppose you can help over at the Other sub forum, can you? I’ve been trying to get someone to take down the Super7 thread for like a year now. From March of 2022: Maybe this thread shouldn’t be stickied anymore. Unpin it, mods!
