Monday’s WWE Raw at the First Horizon Coliseum in Greensboro, North Carolina is tracking roughly 3,500 fewer tickets distributed than the last time WWE ran the building, per WrestleTix. Around 8,245 tickets have been distributed for the Raw taping. The previous visit — a SmackDown taping on May 16, 2025 — distributed 11,883 tickets.
The article notes that last year’s SmackDown fell during the early stages of John Cena’s heel turn, a period that drove notably stronger live gates.
Editor’s note: The comparison is Raw vs. SmackDown, not Raw vs. Raw — different shows, different audience draws. Worth flagging before publishing.
