WWE and AEW are currently selling tickets for their events in Chicago and Charlotte. WWE’s events in Chicago will be taking place not long before AEW’s next event in the city.
WWE will be holding their Clash of Champions pay-per-view event on September 15th at the Spectrum Arena in Charlotte. The venue is set up for 9,500 seats. So far, 8,000 seats have been sold. AEW will be running the smaller Bojangles Arena on November 6th, which is the old Charlotte Coliseum from the Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling days. It is expected to be set up for 7,500 seats and tickets went on sale for that event earlier today.
Of course, AEW announced last week that they are returning to Chicago, IL during Thanksgiving weekend for a TV taping on November 27th, the night before Thanksgiving at the Sears Centre. After announcing the date, AEW has already sold 4,000 tickets. WWE has four shows in Chicago at the Allstate Arena that same week, with SmackDown! Live (November 22nnd), NXT Takeover (November 23rd), Survivor Series (November 24th) and RAW (November 25th). All four shows have sold well.
WWE Survivor Series is likely to sell out, which would be 12,000 tickets. The other three should sell between 8,500 an 9,000.
