Backstage Reaction To WWE's WrestleMania 37 Ticket Sales Delay
How the WWE roster responded to the decision to postpone 'Mania 37 ticket sales.
A number of wrestlers on the WWE roster saw the promotion's recent decision to postpone WrestleMania 37 ticket sales coming.
Fightful Select reports that on top of this, several roster members claimed to have not received information on how to get hold of friends and family tickets prior to the initial on-sale date of Tuesday 16 March, though some were informed that comp tickets were unlikely this year.
Earlier this month, the whole situation was described as a "mess."
WWE announced the postponement on this week's episode of Raw, less than 24 hours before tickets were supposed to hit the market. Announcer Tom Phillips offered no reason for the delay but stated a new announcement would be forthcoming by the end of the week.
Per Fightful's report, there's currently no definitive word on whether or not WWE will use NFL-style cardboard cutout fans inside Raymond James Stadium, though Vince McMahon's stance on the matter is softening.
WrestleMania 37 is now less than a month away. Going down in Tampa on 10 and 11 April, WWE has thus far announced only four matches across its two nights, and faces an uphill battle to hit its target of 90,000 total ticket sales.
