WWE Attendance and Business At Low Levels For PPV Weekend

Archive

House shows this weekend in Canada did business well below expected levels. According to Dave Scherer, Edmonton did about 1500 paid for $70,000 while Calgary did less than 1,200 paid for under $50,000.

These are very low attendances, but even lower considering they are in Canada, long considered a major stronghold for WWE.

Another poor sign of ticket sales was that the PPV in Portland was not sold out last night. Due to the restrictions of the Oregon Athletic Commission, WWE didn’t run in Oregon for many years, and the fact that even in Portalnd a PPV didn’t sell out was cause for concern.
