Attendance: 3,500

Here it is, the lowest-attended WWE pay-per-view in company record books outside of those aforementioned One Night Stand ECW tributes. For those, WWE made a production choice. At Taboo Tuesday 2004, they simply experimented and it didn't work. The audience did not buy into this show at all.

Taboo Tuesday '04 was held in Milwaukee's Bradley Center. The place, which once hosted the NBA's Bucks, has a capacity of 18,800 for pro wrestling. Remember that, because it's important. Previously, WWE had drawn 15,291 to the same venue for No Way Out 2002, and they'd go on to pull 15,306 for Elimination Chamber 2012 and 15,785 for Fastlane 2017.

This show, meanwhile, had a measly 3,500 folks in the stands. That's pretty pathetic considering the star power that was on hand. Check this out for a list: Chris Jericho, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Randy Orton, Ric Flair, Chris Benoit, Edge, Kane, Trish Stratus. All of those and more were on the card.

Something went badly wrong with promotion. Either that or the new pay-per-view voting concept didn't connect with fans.

Were you in attendance for any of these pay-per-views? If so, are you surprised at how low the crowds were? Let us know down in the comments section below!
