Paid Wrestlemania attendance

By Scott Keith on 8 February 2016


Hi Scott


Thought you and the fellow doomers might like this. These are the paid Wrestlemania attendances from the WWE’s Corporate KPI’s (and the BS numbers the WWE claims attended).

They are going to have paper the fuck out of Dallas to even get close to number they can claim is a record for the stadium.


​Well yeah, we’ve been saying that for months now.

​Here’s what I was thinking about, though: The Wrestlemania name sells most of the tickets, because god knows no one is going to the show to see Roman Reigns. And the PPV revenue doesn’t matter any longer, so as long as they can maintain a decent Network number they’re fine. And ratings are dropping like a stone, but they’re locked into a contract with USA for years. So clearly, EVERYTHING IS FINE.
