Alright, let’s talk about this WWE thing coming to New Mexico in 2024. I heard some folks yappin’ about it down at the store. Sounds like a big ol’ wrestling show, you know, the kind where them fellas in tights jump around and pretend to beat each other up.
What’s this WWE all about anyway? Well, from what I gather, it’s like a big circus, but instead of clowns and elephants, you got these muscle-bound fellas. They call themselves wrestlers, and they put on a show. They stomp around, yell a lot, and sometimes even jump off the ropes. I tell ya, it’s a whole lotta noise and commotion. My grandson, he loves it. Says it’s exciting. Me? I think it’s just a bunch of grown men acting silly.
So, this WWE thing, it ain’t just one show. They got all sorts of different events. They got this “Monday Night Raw” and “Friday Night Smackdown.” Sounds like a bunch of made-up names to me. They got big shows too, like “WrestleMania” and “Royal Rumble” and “SummerSlam.” My grandson says those are the big deals, the ones everyone wants to see. He keeps talkin’ about wanting tickets.
And speaking of tickets, I heard they can be right pricey. Some fella at the store said he saw tickets for one of them meet-and-greet things going for a thousand dollars! A thousand dollars! Can you believe that? For what? To shake hands with some sweaty fella in spandex? Now, I also heard you can get cheaper tickets too, like maybe five dollars or something. But I reckon those are way up in the nosebleed section, where you can’t see nothin’ but ants.
This show comin’ to New Mexico, it’s supposed to be on Sunday, January 14, 2024. I don’t know where exactly they’re havin’ it, but I’m sure if you ask around, someone will know. They’re gonna be doin’ all their flippy-floppy moves, I guess. Body slams, they call ’em. And high-flyin’ maneuvers. Sounds dangerous to me. All that jumpin’ and fallin’. I hope they got good insurance.
They also have these things called “WWE Live events”. That just means they are wrestling in person, not just on TV. It’s like goin’ to a concert, but instead of singin’, they’re… well, you know, fake fightin’. They had one of these “Saturday Night’s Main Event” things over in New York, at some place called the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum. See, they go all over the place with this wrestling stuff. It’s a big business, I tell ya.
- So, you wanna go? You gotta get yourself some tickets.
- Don’t wanna spend a fortune? Look for the cheap seats.
- Want to see all the action up close? Well, then you better start savin’ your pennies, ’cause those good seats cost a pretty penny.
Me? I think I’ll just stay home and watch my stories on TV. All that yellin’ and jumpin’ just gives me a headache. But if you like that sort of thing, then go on and have yourself a good time. Just don’t get too riled up, ya hear? It’s all just for show, you know.
Just remember, if you’re going, take some earplugs. And maybe a cushion, ’cause them seats ain’t always the comfiest. And keep an eye on your wallet, ’cause with all that commotion, you never know who might be tryin’ to sneak somethin’ out of your pocket.
That’s about all I know about this WWE thing comin’ to New Mexico. If you wanna know more, you can ask my grandson. He knows all about it. He’s got posters and magazines and all sorts of stuff. Me, I’d rather watch the birds at the feeder. At least they don’t charge admission.
One last thing, don’t go expectin’ it to be real fightin’. It’s like a play, you know? They practice all that stuff. It’s entertainment, that’s all. But some folks get real worked up about it, like it’s some kinda serious competition. I just shake my head. People will believe anything these days, I tell ya.
