WWE Sees Incredible Response For Recent House Show Event

WWE is on the road to WrestleMania, and that calls for a special amount of attention on the company. As they continue their house show tour, it seems that they are getting a very good response in that regard as well.

During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer opened up about WWE’s house show in Denver. They did such a strong gate, bringing in 9,000 fans, which is far better than they did last time they traveled to the market.

“WWE business is so strong right now. They did a house show (last night) in Denver, I didn’t get the gate yet, but they were over 9,000 tickets out (in the morning), and this is a house show.”

“The last time that they did TV there, they were like 5,500 paid for a Raw I think it was. And you come back with a house show, and you’re doing well over 9,000.”

“With the walk-up it could have hit 10,000. And they did it with a lineup that – there was no Sami Zayn, no Kevin Owens, no Roman Reigns. Cody was there, but many of the top guys weren’t even on the card.”

“I’m trying to figure out how many years it’s been since WWE was out there able to do 10,000 people in a city like Denver, or 9,000 people for a house show. It’s been years, I think.”

WWE is gaining in popularity, and that is evident by their ticket sales. The fact that they are on the road to WrestleMania also probably helps things.

Also, the WWE live event included a very surprising spot at the end where Cody Rhodes lifted Braun Strowman on his shoulders in celebration. You can click here to check out that photographic evidence.
