New Pollstar data (including gate) for several shows [ROH Death Before Dishonor], [WWE Wilkes-Barre, PA], [AEW Edmonton, AB], [WWE Cardiff, United Kingdom], [WWE Sheffield, United Kingdom], [WWE Liverpool, United Kingdom], UFC 290 & HOF, WWE MITB and more.
Added 2023-08-09 15:17:26 +0000 UTCI haven't decided if I would add a column for this data to the Master spreadsheet yet but here's some recent numbers from Pollstar. These numbers have very closely resembled paid numbers thus far so when I look at these vs mine, you can sort out the comps from the difference. My thoughts are after each show below.
07/21/2023
"Ring Of Honor Wrestling"
CURE Insurance Arena - Trenton, NJ
Tickets sold: 2,048
Capacity: 4,201
Occupancy: 49%
Ticket price: $20 - $100
USD gross: $104,545
My number: 2,898
Thoughts: That makes sense to me as far as assumed comps (850). They had several discount codes out for this show at various times. This map changed frequently toward the end which made it more challenging to track. If anything, my number could be a tad high due to the amount of late changes to the map.

"World Wrestling Entertainment"
Mohegan Sun Arena At Casey Plaza - Wilkes-Barre, PA
Tickets sold: 6,828
Capacity: 6,828
Occupancy: 100%
Ticket price: $24.5 - $139.5
USD gross: $372,623
My number: 9,267
Thoughts: Wow, that's a LOT of comps (2,439, 26%) which makes sense for this venue. Back when WWE wasn't as hot, people would send me messages all the time that they received their comp for this show from the casino. This map is pretty straight forward so it's not a number I question.
07/20/2023
"World Wrestling Entertainment"
Cardiff International Arena - Cardiff, United Kingdom
Tickets sold: 4,569
Capacity: 4,569
Occupancy: 100%
Ticket price: 25 - 350
USD gross: $372,765
My number: 4,834
Thoughts: Looks about right for a sell out show with a little over 260 (5%) comps out.
07/05/2023
"AEW Rampage"
Rogers Place - Edmonton, AB
Tickets sold: 5,144
Capacity: 13,023
Occupancy: 39%
Ticket price: 15 - 160
USD gross: $302,952
My number: 5,746
Thoughts: Roughly 622 (10%) comps which sounds about right for this too. Here's what I wrote in my Final Count for this one: "Tougher map than usual because of a lot of changes to it late (tickets and sections being removed). There were some sections that had people in it on the hard cam side (one was close to full) so those got credit while others looked like they were less full around the bend. My guess is the paid number will be around or just under 5K."

"World Wrestling Entertainment"
Utilita Arena Sheffield - Sheffield, United Kingdom
Tickets sold: 6,339
Capacity: 6,850
Occupancy: 93%
Ticket price: 25 - 350
USD gross: $385,984
My number: 6,908
Thoughts: Again, 569 comps (8%) sounds about right. WWE has been in the 7-10% for comps for the last several quarters.
06/28/2023
"World Wrestling Entertainment"
M&S Bank Arena Liverpool - Liverpool, United Kingdom
Tickets sold: 6,010
Capacity: 6,110
Occupancy: 98%
Ticket price: 25 - 350
USD gross: $389,863
My number: NO MAP
Thoughts: We get to fill in a gap on the spreadsheet. There was no map to track for this show.
07/15/2023
"World Wrestling Entertainment"
EagleBank Arena - Fairfax, VA
Tickets sold: 6,492
Capacity: 7,789
Occupancy: 83%
Ticket price: $20 - $120
USD gross: $328,914
My number: 6,782
07/08/2023
"UFC 290"
T-Mobile Arena - Las Vegas, NV
Tickets sold: 17,835
Capacity: 17,835
Occupancy: 100%
Ticket price: $150 - $5000
USD gross: $9,273,325
My number: Did not track.
07/06/2023
"UFC Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony"
T-Mobile Arena - Las Vegas, NV
Tickets sold: 2,662
Capacity: 4,065
Occupancy: 65%
Ticket price: $25 - $25
USD gross: $35,550
My number: Did not track.
07/01/2023
"World Wrestling Entertainment"
The O2 - London - London, United Kingdom
Tickets sold: 15,471
Capacity: 15,800
Occupancy: 98%
Ticket price: 25 - 500
USD gross: $3,323,751
My number: 17,617
Thoughts: This is the Money in the Bank show. This would suggest either more comps than thought or I included too many sections (but when I look back on pictures, everything checks out. I wouldn't exclude anything from the map I had). I will definitely try to get in earlier for the presales for this venue (it was difficult to do the first time around for this combo package). Something to make note of for future shows at this venue using this setup (no big stage).
