World Wrestling Entertainment is a company that regularly hosts about seven live events per week. They have Raw airing live on television on Mondays, Smackdown taped on Tuesdays and then on the weekend they have a Friday house show (or live event) as well as two house shows on Saturday and Sunday. That's what a typical week is. When they go on tour in Europe they have nearly two full weeks of shows with no days off. It makes sense that events like Raw, Smackdown or PPVs are going to get more attention because that's where the storyline development is, where the promos take place and where people from all over the world can see what happened. A house show is a local event that only people in that designated area can attend. Most fans aren't going to drive 12 hours for a house show, but they might do that to attend a WrestleMania, Summerslam or Royal Rumble. That's because of the importance of the show. A house show just doesn't matter as much as a WWE televised event. If you're attending your first house show or if you haven't been to one in a while, here are some tips on what you should know before you get there.
