Ticket sales question
 
`When people actually cared about WWE, they'd always report that tickets for a live event sold out in like, 71 seconds.

I noticed a while ago, they simply stopped making this claim. Anyone know how readily events are selling out these days?

I've noticed it takes about a week or so for a PPV to sell out, less if it's one of the hot spots, more if it's in a dead zone. It's not hard to get TV seats for at least a month after they go on sale, usually seats will be available (that have always been available) the day of the show and house shows, well, take a guess...

Of course, again, it does depend on where they're holding the event.

Trick question, WWE doesn't sell out arena anymore. :p

No seriously, House Shows haven't been able to sell out for a while, occasionally TV shows don't even sell out and more often than not ticket sales go clear through to the beginning of the show, and for PPVs it's like a week or so before the last ticket is sold.

And I remember when I was living in Denver and a house show sold out after 45 minutes. Way to up your game Vinny & Co.

What? There's no one here at the 4 aces club either, maybe i'm out of touch with the youth? No, it's the children who are wrong....

I've noticed they're plugging the upcoming tour of Britain loads at the moment on British TV, so I'm guessing they're not sold out yet.

They can always do that, as there's more ads on the US version, so when it's not live they can pad it out with there own adverisments.

You're right though, only 2 of the shows have sold out, heck, The live Raw TV taping hasn't sold out in Birmingham yet I think, which is shocking

The funny bit is the overseas shit was done because ticket sales in the US were down. Have they already started to drain that resource?

Kane Knight 09-27-2007 05:38 PM

Obviously, not ALL The overseas shit is new, but still.

i think last nights samckdown is the first time they mentioned that no mercy is sold out. took a while to sell out.

What a coincidence, it's sold out the week "it COULD be Jericho" rumors start.
