WWE RAW ticket sales for Allstate Arena tracking way below 2025 visit, here’s why

WWE SmackDown Logo Arena 2026

WWE RAW is set to take place next week from the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, IL. According to the latest report from WrestleTix, around 9,971 tickets have been distributed for the show so far, which is way down on the 16,642 distributed for the 9/5/2025 episode of SmackDown (the last time the company held a TV taping from the building). This number is up +398 since the last update (from 2 days ago).

There are some major caveats to this though, as the SmackDown from September 5th 2025 was a big one. Notably, this was John Cena’s last ever in-ring appearance in Chicago, but it was also the announced last time that he would ever be appearing on SmackDown itself.

Taking those into consideration, the current ticket sales for the Allstate Arena return could be considered ok, if anything. Cena made a massive difference when it came to last year’s average ticket sales because of his retirement tour, and the building will probably get into the 10,500 range by the time the show goes live on Monday. So while the number is down on last year, it isn’t a disaster by any means.

WWE RAW Ticket Sales Update

For context, 11,056 is the current YTD average for WWE tickets distributed (which includes all PLEs from January 2026 onwards), there are around 798 tickets on the resale market and the cheapest ticket (Standard Admission) is currently $96.95.
