“The expectation right now is 25,000 to 30,000 paid for the Rumble, 7,000 to 7,500 for Raw at the Talking Stick Arena on 1/28, which would be a big disappointment, 6,500 to 7,000 for Smackdown on 1/29, and 8,500 to 9,000 for Takeover on 1/26. It really shows how much things have changed when Takeover is the most popular non-PPV ticket of a big weekend, although Saturday night is also the best night to draw.
“About two-thirds of the upper deck and several lower deck sections on the same side of the hard camera aren’t being used for Takeover, which has a $39.87 secondary market price.
“For Raw, only three sections facing the hard cam are opened with the rest being tarped, as well as one section of the lower deck on the same side a the hard camera. The price for entry on the secondary market is $33.10.”
