Grr... this is really pissing me off. Typically, Calgary is supposed to get Raw or Smackdown during the final week of May... or at least some WWE event. Its been that way for the past probably 8 years. This year, however, Toronto, and Montreal have already had their share of WWE events this year. Both I think have had two televised events, and one house show each. Now they're slated for another televised event each coming up in July. Yet, I still havent heard anything regarding the WWE's return to Calgary.... and they can't not come to Calgary. As Undertaker said at last years SmackDown... Calgary is the Championship City of the World.

We have some of the best crowds. Hulk Hogan even said so in an article in Famous Magazine. And we are the home of Lance Storm, and the Harts. Some of the top wrestlers (Jericho and Benoit) both trained here. Calgary is known in the business for being home to Stu Harts Dungeon...

So why the hell have we not got anything coming our way? The WWE makes my head itch sometimes. We should be getting several stops a year. My brother seems to think we'll be getting SummerSlam... little does he realize Pheonix is getting that. Aye Aye Aye.

Dangerously Crazy

they sometimes skip cities to go to newer arenas, they did that here and we ended up geting Backlash

You want to start talking about skipping cities? HAH! What about countries? What about 'forever' instead of '7 years'! HAH! Vince and the rest of his boss buddies are corrupted and that's it.

Now alll I need is Raw to come here!
I hope they do

Yeah, but you'd think with Calgary's wrestling history, they'd make a point to come here more often. Its the starting grounds to many of todays greatest superstars. Even The Rock has a history here, as he once played for the Calgary Stampeders. Yet, the Rock has not been present for even one televised event in Calgary.

And the crowds man, the crowds. I dont think I've ever heard a reaction out of a crowd like when Undertaker made his comment about Calgary being the Championship City of the World. And when Vince opened up Raw in 2001 and said "You're actually proud to say 'I am Canadian'" I've never heard the entire crowd say "Yeah" as simultaneously that you could clearly make out that they were saying "yeah" rather than just cheering. Both times that happened. And we made Hogan stand for 10 minutes (which was actually shortened down to about 2 minutes for television) on SmackDown before he was able to even think about starting to talk.

I mean, Calgary has the best crowds... the only crowd comparable is Chicago, and Wresltemanias.

DAMMIT, I'm going through WWE Live withdrawal here.


And BMB... we're basically in the same boat, man... you may be in a country that never gets WWE... but with the size of Canada, my province alone is about the size of two or three european countries, so its technically the same shit, we just dont have a giant-ass pond separating us from the rest of the WWE.


And then there's Dennis... I dont know how many times that boy has come on here and complained because SmackDown is just 20 minutes away from his house, but when you ask him why he didnt go, it was because he "didnt want to". People take WWE for granted, and it aggrevates me.


Yeah, so thats my two dollars. (Canadian exchange rate )

NDD

They call St. Louis a Championship city. You get events more than we do.

Didn't want to go? Sorry if it came off that way, but I would go if....

A) I had the damn money.

B) I had someone to go with.

So sorry/thanks...

Yet under those circumstances I think you already saw them, actually I'm pretty convinced you did. And hey, RAW on tv is live as well
