10 Things You Didn't Know About WWE SummerSlam

10. How Many People Have Attended

SummerSlam is one of WWE's most popular PLEs every single year, and has progressed to the point of becoming a mid-year stadium show that pads company coffers. Attendances will soar in coming years, but just how many people have attended all 35 events between 1988-2022 to date?

Get ready for this: It's a whopping 735,997 folks.

Yes, if you add up all of the reported attendance figures from SummerSlam 1988 up until last year's show, you'll get that number. It's a staggering amount. Almost three quarters of a million folks have traded in a ticket stub for the "Biggest Party Of The Summer". Obviously, that number will shoot up post-SummerSlam 2023.

It's worth noting that the 2020 event isn't included here. Well, it is, but the number of fans in attendance was negligible anyway. WWE were forced behind closed doors at the Amway Center in Orlando (ThunderDome style), so the show took place in front of exactly zero people live.
