10 Bizarre Wrestling Facts We Just Accept
4. A Banned Wrestler Can Still Buy A Ticket
"They can't throw him out, he bought a ticket!"
How many times have we heard those immortal words leave the lips of a wrestling commentator? Like Americans and their Second Amendment, the right of a banned professional wrestler to buy a ticket is considered sacred.
No matter how heinous the crime, no matter how justified the ban, purchasing a run-of-the-mill ticket entitles the offending wrestler to attend AEW Dynamite or WWE Raw, where they will no doubt shoehorn themselves into the main event.
And you thought patriotism was the last refuge of a scoundrel? Samuel Johnson was all wrong. It's a ringside seat, bay bay!
That's right, even the most shrewd team of legal experts and the most ironclad restraining order are no match for a couple of clicks on StubHub. Come on. Did you see the man's ticket? We rest our case.

There's almost nothing more Sports Entertainment than a defiant wrestler mugging for the camera while proudly clutching their ticket. Isn't it great to know our legal system still protects abusive men prone to arbitrary fits of violence? Some things never change.
