WWE WrestleMania is the flagship pay-per-view of the company and they certainly want jam packed venue for the event. This year WrestleMania is returning to Dallas,Texas as WWE recently put tickets on sale for their two-night WrestleMania 38 spectacle in Dallas, Texas. The dual events take place in the massive AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys. With two nights and a huge number of seats in the building, the promotion may have trouble selling out their biggest event of the year. Ric Flair Signing With Surprising Promotion?
WrestleMania 38 tickets having a low sale
Dave Meltzer described the ticket sales concerns on today’s Wrestling Observer Radio. He said tickets aren’t moving as rapidly as the company would expect. It’s far from a sell-out at this point:
“Mania tickets, I don’t have a number but you could tell from the push really hard and everything like that [that they are] far far far far far from a sellout. I didn’t expect it would be this quick. The first time they went to AT&T Stadium, it actually didn’t sell out until a week out and that was for one show…I know that the number was lower than they expected. It’s funny because when I talked with them a couple of weeks ago, [they said] because we’re gonna do two shows, we’re gonna make it pricewise easier. And they did not do that and that may have been a mistake. I mean the price is really high, high enough to scare people away. There is a certain thing that you can charge more money for WrestleMania than any other show but there is a limit on everything as far as how much you can charge.”
He believes that the high price might be the reason the fans are unwilling to purchase them. Therefore, WWE has already begun lowering the cost of certain tickets. He thinks the company will adjust after the hardcore fans who will pay anything have secured their seats.
“I know that some tickets have already been lowered. It may have been one of those things where they start off with super high prices figuring that the people who really want tickets bad will pay those prices and there will be a lot of them and there were and then they start lowering it afterwards. So that maybe how it all turns out…”
