WWE RAW ticket sales in London doing well but way down on 2025 number, here’s why

WWE RAW will be taking place live from the O2 Arena in London, England on Monday, June 22nd 2026. While ticket sales for the show are doing quite well about a month or so out, it is still way down on the tickets sold the last time the company ran the venue in 2025.

9,477 tickets have been distributed for the show, according to the latest report from WrestleTix (as of writing). The number of tickets available on the venue map sit at 16,868, but the current setup is around 11,835 when you factor in current staging and areas that are currently closed off.

The last time that the company ran the building was 3/31/2025, which again was for an episode of Raw. That show saw 16,276 tickets distributed. That could be classed near enough as a sell out of the building, and although we’re just under a month out, it is very unlikely that WWE will reach that number again.

Why is WWE RAW in London not going to sell as well as last year?

There are a number of contributing factors that you really need to bear in mind here. The March 31st episode of the show was part of the build-up to WrestleMania, and just at the start of the John Cena heel turn.

It cannot be overstated just how important the John Cena Retirement Tour was for the company last year, especially from January’s Royal Rumble to WrestleMania, with the Cena heel turn at Elimination Chamber creating a massive amount of buzz (initially).

Telling fans in England this was their last time to see Cena live was a big draw for the show. The company just does not have that sort of driver now to get people into the buildings, at least at that level. A cost-of-living crisis in the UK has also not helped, with many having to make cuts to their entertainment spending due to global market issues driving the price of oil and other necessities up.

WWE RAW this Monday currently selling 3,000+ fewer tickets in Greensboro than 2025 visit

WWE RAW on Monday is set to take place from the First Horizon Coliseum in Greensboro, North Carolina. According to the latest report from WrestleTix, the show is selling at a far lower rate than the last time the company ran the building.

As of writing, around 8,245 tickets have been distributed for the show, and that number is just over 3,500 less than the 11,883 tickets the company were able to distribute when they were last at the building for the 5/16/2025 episode of SmackDown.

WWE RAW vs WWE SmackDown last year for context

Here is what took place on that show last year for reference, note that this was during the John Cena heel turn and just before the Saturday Night’s Main Event card where he faced R-Truth:

  • Jacob Fatu engaged in a tense moment with Solo Sikoa after JC Mateo emerged to help The Samoan Werewolf retain his title in the Fatal 4-Way Match at WWE Backlash. LA Knight launched a surprise attack on Mateo to get payback
  • Alexa Bliss def. Michin and Chelsea Green in a Women’s Money in the Bank Triple Threat Qualifying Match
  • Fraxiom def. #DIY
  • R-Truth confirms he will battle WWE Undisputed Champion John Cena at Saturday Night’s Main Event
  • Aleister Black def. Carmelo Hayes by Disqualification
  • Drew McIntyre accepted Damian Priest’s challenge for a Steel Cage Match on Saturday Night’s Main Event
  • Solo Sikoa def. Jimmy Uso and Rey Fenix in a Men’s Money in the Bank Triple Threat Qualifying Match
  • JC Mateo def. LA Knight in WWE debut match
  • Tiffany Stratton def. Nia Jax in a WWE Women’s Championship Match

Even though John Cena didn’t appear on the card, it’s clear just how much his retirement tour and him even being in the periphery for the opening stretches of his heel turn made a difference to the live gates in 2025.

WWE RAW ticket sales update for tonight’s show (04-05-2026)

WWE RAW takes place tonight from the CHI Health Center in Omaha, Nebraska, and while the show hasn’t quite sold out just yet, it’s very much looking like it could do with walk-ups potentially taking the remaining sub-1000 tickets available.

According to the latest report from WrestleTix, 8,347 of the 9,174 currently available tickets have been sold, meaning there is 827 as of writing.

WWE RAW ticket sales, yearly average and update

This is tracking way below what the company managed the last time they were in the building, banking 11,606 tickets sold for the 5/5/2025 episode of RAW. The numbers also don’t look pretty from a year to date average either, which currently stands at 11,900. So even if the show does sell out, that’s still over 2,500 tickets below what they’ve been managing so far this year.

WWE Raw lineup for Monday, May 4, 2026

  • Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu contract signing for WWE Backlash
  • The Oba Femi Open Challenge continues
  • Je’Von Evans & Penta vs. Rusev & Ethan Page
  • JD McDonagh vs. Finn Balor
  • Asuka and IYO SKY will “sit down” ahead of their match at WWE Backlash

WWE Raw ticket update for tonight in Laredo, Texas

WWE RAW takes place tonight from Sames Auto Arena, Laredo, TX. As of writing, the show has not quite sold out, with WrestleTix confirming on their most recent update that there are around 907 still left to shift.

The current setup for the show has 7,828 with a reported 6,921 tickets distributed. This update was posted yesterday, so there’s a good chance that the show will be close to sold out as we get closer to tonight.

The last time the company ran this venue was on 1/27/2023 for a Smackdown where 7,555 tickets were distributed. They’ve obviously topped that number already but not quite sold out as of writing.
