Just curious on all of your guys opinions. Do you enjoy going more to a house show or a taped RAW or SD! (not counting PPVs)? For me, it's sometimes tough to tell. On TV you see more storyline development and more involving top stars, but you have to deal with a lot of quick matches and segments. At a house show it is stripped down, no segments, but you get more matches and usually the main event matches are far longer than the usually quicky main events we see on RAW and SD!. For example, the last SD! house show I went to was about two weeks ago and Edge face Batista in a LMS bout in the main event that went near a half hour and was basically PPV quality. I'm not sure I have a definite answer of my opinion, you guys?

Some of the best WWF/E ive seen was house shows.
I love both but sometimes the small time intimate feel of a house show is more enjoyable.
DO MORE FROM THE VAULTS WALTER!

I gotta say house shows. The matches always seems to be more entertaining at a house show.
You really should do some more From the Vaults, I loved checking out old school BCA figures, it reminded me of when I first got into collecting.

I've only been to a RAW/SD supershow in 2005 and loved it. I am going to another show this weekend that's SD/ECW, I think it may be a house show, idk.

I will be attending my first house show in 2 years on Dec. 26th in Providence, RI.. Supershow, too. I have 2nd row ringside, so it's gonna be an enjoyable experience. Can't wait. As for your question, I prefer live/tv tapings of Raw, SmackDown/ECW, and PPVs, but it all depends on where you are sitting. I was at Raw this week from Mohegan Sun and was sitting on the side of the entrance, so I couldn't see the video screen or even look up at the huge TV above the ring because there was none, and the view of the ring was a corner view and somewhat distant. The only part of the show that made it worthwhile was when Y2J and JBL came over to the structure and fought. That made the show for me because I felt like part of the show.
It all depends on where you are sitting, I think. Any show WWE put on can be enjoyable live, but if you're someone that feels bamboozled out of your money by cheap segments on TV when you go to live TV tapings, then house shows are probably the best for you because you get PPV quality matches for the most part, a brief intermission, a much more personal atmosphere because the wrestlers aren't performing in front of a camera, etc.

you get a lot more bang for your buck and overall substance at a house show. being there live is cool, but its like...id rather be at a PPV or a really good RAW over a house show, whereas id rather be a stacked house show than a medicore taping with a stupid dark main event

Both have advantages but I enjoy the TV atmosphere alot more. Everything is just so much better produced and organized.

I've been to a few of both and I'd definitely go with House Shows.

When it comes to wrestling house shows are better because there are a lot more matches to watch and they last longer because there are hardly any promos or anything like that, however when it comes to entertainment, the tapings are better because there is more in-between stuff that can be fun to watch, so it just depends on what you like.

Tapping, obviously! Why shall you waste your lots of money to watch throw in matches? he stated the reasons why... house shows usually have longer matches... case in point... last night i was at the Smackdown/ECW tapings in Wilkes-Barre and without spoiling anything... there was a segment that went way too long and that i didn't care about b/c i don't follow SD!...i just went to see wrestling... so if i went to a house show i wouldn't have had to deal w/ that segment...
