Fans piling in to the vast Melbourne Cricket Ground have provided the first glimpses of what WWE Super Show-Down will look like when the show kicks off - incidentally without a WWE kickoff panel to do it first.
Whilst Network events are ordinarily spoiled by a panel of talking heads, this particular show will unusually start hot, and not just because of the blazing Australian sun still beaming down on the 60,000+ expected in attendance. The vast structures are now a common occurrence when WWE goes to the trouble of going big, but the Kevin Dunn-orchestrated spectacles are no less impressive.
Home country favourites Buddy Murphy and The IIconics will all likely be roared on by the Melbourne locals, whilst major Raw and SmackDown Live main events are augmented well by the huge 'Last Time Ever' contest pitting longtime rivals The Undertaker and Triple H against one another with cameos from Kane and Shawn Michaels in the respective corners.
