WWE has thus far shifted around 92.5% of tickets made available for this weekend's Royal Rumble 2022 show.

WrestleTix's last count, dated 22 January, states that the promotion has sold 31,598 tickets out of 34,174 available, leaving 2,576 on the market:-

The Rumble takes place at The Dome at America's Center in St. Louis, Missouri. The building can be set up for 67,277 for NFL games, though that won't be the case on 29 January.

Dave Meltzer noted in last week's Wrestling Observer Newsletter that as is typically the situation with non-WrestleMania stadium shows, WWE will likely end up announcing an attendance around 10,000 higher than the actual number. Regardless, the Rumble is selling well.

The show's secondary market get-in price sat at around $46 last week.

As things stand, Royal Rumble 2022 will be WWE's best-attended event since SummerSlam 2021, which drew an announced attendance of 51,326 on 21 August last year.

While much of the Rumble's drawing power comes from the titular men's and women's over-the-top-rope battle royals, the card also features three world title fights in Brock Lesnar vs. Bobby Lashley, Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins, and Becky Lynch vs. Doudrop.
