>Can no longer sell out Arenas like they used to only a few years ago.
>Have resorted to curtaning off the 2nd and 3rd decks to make the crowds not look as pathetic in pictures due to the negative connotations behind tarping off.
>Now only able to sell out the bottom floor of the arena, IF that, considering the hardcam side is almost always empty meaning the only tickets being sold are 2/3rds or even 1/2 of the bottom floor in Smackdown's case.
>Wo-wow lo-look at this sold out are-arena!

Here's RAW from two nights ago.
And here's Smackdown from last night. And the scary part is, Monday Night Football hasn't even started yet which will no doubt take a large chunk away from the audience, both attendance and viewership.
>>3116803
no
>>3116806
The viewership has somewhat stabilized though.
>>3116803
LOL. The last night of G1 sold out, with almost 11,000 people in the arena. Judging by these recent WWE attendance figures, you can easily deduce that your post is complete and utter bullshit. Let me guess, you're going to now move goalposts and talk about how one MAJOR NJPW show outdrew a random WWE house show or something despite the fact that the WWE is 20 times bigger than NJPW and STILL get outdrawn.
>>3116813
Neither is an obvious falsehood.
>>3116829
HOLY FUCKING KEK
>>3116829
Their PPV have problems to get those numbers these days.
>>3116829
Average New Japan house show sells out.
New Japan has had more sell out shows than WWE all year.
>>3116852
Hell, even ROH has been selling out more than WWE this year.
WWE is still running big arenas that they can't fill.
>fails to fill half of the tokyo dome for their biggest show of the year
>>3116829
An average house show pulls 2500.
>>3116852
They don't need to to still make good profits.
How people still fail to realize, that NJPW isn't competing with the WWE on the same level like thw WCW tried 2 decades back.
It is a different company from a different country working under different conditions.
NJPW is making big profits and is growing steadily, that is all that is important.
>>3116803
>b b b but muh njpw!
You edrones are fucking sad
>>3116794
and here's smackdown this week
>>3116803
rent free
HOLY FUCKING BASED
>>3116794
We got the point the first few times you made these threads. Now take your threads somewhere else to people that care
>>3116803
>Incapable of defending WWE without putting down another promotion
Like clockwork.
>>3116924

Nujacucks btfo
>>3117891
says the E drone faggot who brings up NJPW even though they have nothing to do with the E's failures
WWE is dying and they refuse to do anything about it.
Vince thinks it'll magically bounce back like it did in the 90s.
The only problem is WCW forced him to change then. The nWo saved WWE from heading down the path they are now for a decade.
There's no one, other than NJPW, to make him do that now. I really hope they get a TV deal in the US and go head to head on Mondays.
Then we'll start seeing WWE giving a shit again.
>>3117898
>getting this worked up over fake fighting
How will nujacucks ever recover?
>>3116829
house shows in my small/mid size city usually fill the lower bowl and second deck/club seats with some people in the upper deck. raw always sells out. and no, i'm not in the south.
.
>>3118063
>>3116794
Also they darken the arena now so you can't see the crowd as well. This wasn't happening back then when they would easily sell an arena out.
>>3118067
>>3116829
How does that work when their average attendance across all events in like 6,800?
>>3118073
>>3117918
Notice how you faggots bring up NJPW in unrelated threads constantly? NJPW literally lives in your head rent free,

Crowds will never be this electric again. What do you notice about the audience members? No one is on a phone, almost everyone has brought a sign and getting involved, people are screaming and smiling, excited. Look at the demographics. Mostly rowdy young men. Based times. Lost times
>>3118119
>>3118119
>wah wah wah
St..stop talking about my nujacuck wrestling
Speaking of attendance, Who Japan has literally had 0 shows the past 4 weeks.
Based faggot sport working the WWE into a shoot

>Another thread turned into a WWE vs. NJPW shit-flinging contest
You guys are autistic as fuck

>>3116959
>IN MY VEINS!!!
Using different atmosphere from 10-15 years ago as parameter,yeah,people back then still want attend the arena because they want see the match live or watch via tv due the limitation
Today,we can see the whole show from any platform like smartphone and don't bother to wait for 2 months just to watch P.P.V replay by home media like DVD because so Network will have replay show
>>3119630
Mate I was young teen in the UK during attitude era and fucking every cunt gathered to watch the ppvs live and seeing as they aired around 1am it was always a big house party with about 15+ lads. Even in my second year of high school they took us on some shit camp hostel in the highlands and we managed to get them to let us watch the PPV (it was the first time American badass appeared https://youtu.be/9HcolDGhs-M)
Good memories it was fucking hype no mobile phones social media or YouTube speculation to spoil it for us.
We got raw and smackdown 4 days late but the PPVs were still live. I cant be fucked looking but I bet the ratings for sky sports, every Friday I think raw aired, were huge.

Who cares about the console war when we have KAIRI-SAN! She will literally plant love and grow peace between both companies.
>>3116794
Obvious bait is obvious. Good eye in the first pic, circling the ceiling above the sold-out crowd.
>>3116806
Looks full to me.
>>3116852
More bullshit claims with no proof
>>3116959
I see a full arena
You guys are just so ass-chapped that Vince is the God of American pro wrestling and the normies don't wanna watch your little Nippers jumping around like seizure patients.
>>3118150
It's sad.
>>3116794
WWE went full PG at a time all tv, even tv on the USA network went full MA.
>>3118150
>Based times.
You ruined your otherwise good post.
>>3116794
>LOWER THE FUCKING PRICE OF TICKETS!!!
They haven't been able to since like 2003. Who the fuck gives a shit?
>>3116829
>>3119873
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
WWE autists, how does it feel knowing a bunch of midget chad Japs with a company less than 10% the size of Monday Night Rainman alone actually puts more butts in seats these days?
>>3120873
The last time I went to a WWE show was Smackdown right after WMXXX and it was around $65 for my ticket. I think I have paid close to $80 for Raw. Never again.
>>3116851
Too fucking many PPVs any anything that happens will probably get reset in next months PPV
The WWE has shifted from a wrestling company to a generic entertainment company with a network you subscribe to. House shows don't matter any more, the money is all in sponsorship for the WWE network.
