10 Fascinating WWE Survivor Series 2001 Facts
10. Tickets Were Still Available Two Days Before The Show
You'd think that if the Invasion were handled better, as the ultimate in wrestling civil wars, tickets would've been as coveted as gold. Two and a half years before Survivor Series, WWE held their 1999 King of the Ring inside the same building - The Coliseum in Greensboro, NC. That event brought in just a shade under 20,000 fans (19,761 to be exact) at a time when WWE could do no wrong.
Fast forward to the end of the now-sterile WWE/WCW war, and Survivor Series 2001 could only bring in 10,142 fans to the same venue. To make matters worse, Figure Four Weekly reported that only 8,030 of those fans paid, meaning more than 2,000 fans got in for free. F4W also reported that $300 tickets were still available as of the Friday afternoon before the pay-per-view. Clearly, the boom was long over.
