The 10/23 show will begin promptly at 7pm, with 8th Anniversary Ceremonies and speeches beginning at 6:30pm. Holders of the $40 ringside seats will receive, in addition to admission to the show itself, exclusive admission to a Meet & Greet with all of the wrestlers on the show beginning at 3pm at the Lincoln Center, as well as a limited edition 8th Anniversary t-shirt which will only be available to the ringside ticket holders. Tickets for the show are also available in $25, $20, and $15 seating areas. The bleachers are back at the Lincoln Center for the winter months!
