Strong NXT Takeover Tix Sales
Tickets for the September 11th WWE NXT Takeover 2 special are reportedly selling rapidly, as readers have noted all the ringside seats for the special are sold out.
Additionally, as of Thursday night, there were only a few hundred General Admission tickets available.
Two Major Names Not Expected to Be on Raw Monday Night
Both John Cena and Brock Lesnar are not expected to be on Raw Monday night. Lesnar was never scheduled for the event, and Cena will once again be out filming the movie “Trainwreck.”
Paglino: I’m guessing WWE feels Lesnar vs Cena will sell itself, as the PPV is only two weeks away, meaning the two competitors are only going to get one more shot at hyping their match on Raw before the bout takes place. I’m sure Heyman will be on hand to help sell the PPV match on TV, but WWE is stretching promotion for the match a bit thin by having Cena & Lesnar miss so much Raw time.
