With WWE Saturday Nights Main Event set to take place tonight at the Bell Centre in Montreal, a fresh update from WrestleTix gives insight into how the show is really performing from a ticket sales perspectiveand its not all good news.
According to the latest figures, WWE has distributed 10,761 tickets for the event. While that might seem like a solid number at first glanceespecially with only 476 tickets remaininga closer look at the seating map tells a different story.
The current setup is for 11,237 seats, and WWE has moved 1,802 more tickets since the last update five days ago. But heres the real kicker: the total number of seats on the map is a massive 19,585. That means over 8,000 seats are not even being used, suggesting a major downscale to avoid the appearance of empty sections on TV.
This event was promoted as a big deal, with a card featuring Cody Rhodes vs. Jacob Fatu, a Fatal 4-Way No. 1 Contenders Match, and the final AJ Styles vs. Shinsuke Nakamura clash. Yet WWEs decision to scale down from a near 20K capacity to just over 11K shows that demand didnt quite live up to expectations.
For comparison, the last major WWE event at this venueSmackDown on August 8, 2025had a setup of 13,987 seats, meaning tonights setup is more than 2,700 seats fewer than that show.
The cheapest ticket currently available is CA $66.00, and 79 seats are listed for resale.
So while the optics may scream sellout, the truth is WWE significantly reduced the available seating to maintain a packed look. Its a reminder that even with top-tier talent on the card, filling up a large arena is never a guaranteed slam dunk.
