NXT Showdown vs. NA Tickets: Can you actually buy them?

WWE NXT Showdown TNA Summit

If you’re a wrestling fan asking, “Can you buy tickets to the NXT vs TNA Showdown?” the short answer is: mostly, no. But the devil is in the details. Let’s break down how this special event differs from a typical ticketed wrestling show, and what your best options are.

What is NXT vs TNA Showdown?

“NXT vs TNA Showdown” (stylized as ShoWdown) is a one-off, co-produced special by WWE’s NXT brand and TNA (Total Nonstop Action Wrestling). The event is scheduled for October 7, 2025 at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida. The twist: unlike most live shows, this is a TV special, produced to air on The CW as part of the NXT programming slate, rather than as a standalone live-gate event.

Because of that special format, it’s not structured like a standard ticketed wrestling event. Instead of selling to the general public through ticket outlets, the logistics and access are handled differently (for instance through television or internal arrangements).

Why you probably can’t buy “Showdown” tickets

Venue and format constraints

The venue, the WWE Performance Center, is typically used as a training and production facility, not a big public arena. That suggests limited public seating or perhaps no general public access. Because Showdown is designed primarily as a broadcast special rather than a “ticketed super show,” WWE may not intend to offer general admission tickets.

Lack of ticket listings

At present, there is no official ticket sale for “NXT vs TNA Showdown” via typical platforms (Ticketmaster, WWE.com, etc.). A search for NXT tickets shows regular NXT live events available via Ticketmaster. Meanwhile, TNA’s own events do list tickets via Ticketmaster because the company does regularly sell tickets for its standard shows, but the Showdown event is not listed among those.

How you can buy tickets for NXT or TNA (standard events)

If your interest is broader, i.e. attending a regular NXT show or a TNA event, the ticket routes are well established:

  • NXT: NXT live events (non-Showdown) are ticketed via Ticketmaster, WWE’s event pages, or venue partners.
  • TNA: TNA Wrestling publishes an events schedule and offers tickets via official channels (such as TNA’s website) and platforms like Ticketmaster,
  • Secondary markets: For major events, sites like TickPick, Vivid Seats, and other resale platforms offer TNA tickets, sometimes at steep prices.
