# Rumor: Observer Says Survivor Series Has 25,298 Tickets Out Label: RUMOR Promotion: WWE By WrestlingNews.com Rumors Desk Published Nov. 14, 2026, 1:30 PM ET Reliability: Single source, not confirmed Heat 2/5, chatter URL: https://wrestlingnews.com/story/rumor-observer-says-survivor-series-has-25298-tickets-out-full-gear-6200/ > Unconfirmed: the Wrestling Observer Newsletter reportedly counts 25,298 tickets out for WWE Survivor Series on Nov. 28 in Houston, 6,200 for AEW Full Gear on Nov. 14 and 3,234 for Worlds End on Dec. 19. Neither company has confirmed. This is a rumor and it is not confirmed. The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reportedly puts WWE Survivor Series: WarGames at 25,298 tickets out, AEW Full Gear at 6,200 and AEW Worlds End at 3,234, per reports published Friday, Nov. 13, 2026. Neither WWE nor AEW has released a ticket count. Full Gear is Saturday, Nov. 14, in Phoenix. ## The quick version - Not confirmed by WWE or AEW. Promotions seldom release counts, and we found no statement from either. - Reliability: Single source, not confirmed. The origin is the Observer, which is for subscribers. We read two relays, 411Mania and eWrestlingNews, and not the newsletter. - Heat 2 of 5. It is routine ticket tracking, but it comes out on the day of an AEW pay-per-view. ## What is being reported 411Mania says the Observer's figures are these. Survivor Series is Saturday, Nov. 28, at Daikin Park in Houston, with 25,298 tickets out and a $91 cheapest ticket on the secondary market. Full Gear is at the Mortgage Matchup Center in Phoenix, with 6,200 out and a $58 cheapest secondary ticket. Worlds End is Saturday, Dec. 19, at Target Center in Minneapolis, with 3,234 out and an $80 cheapest secondary ticket. 411Mania credits Dave Meltzer with the context. eWrestlingNews prints the same projections without naming him. 411Mania says Full Gear sales "picked up" in recent days, that the show could reach 7,500, and that 8,000 or more would count as a good result. For Survivor Series, it says sales showed "good movement" last week as the card became clearer. It says Meltzer called Worlds End a "weak start," and said the $80 entry price is "very high by AEW standards." ## Against the last update eWrestlingNews printed an earlier Observer update on Oct. 21. It had Full Gear at 4,461 tickets with a $64 cheapest ticket, Survivor Series at 23,214 with a $77 cheapest ticket, and Worlds End at 3,028. By our arithmetic, that is 1,739 more tickets for Full Gear, 2,084 more for Survivor Series and 206 more for Worlds End in the three weeks between the two updates. The Oct. 21 page also lists AEW Dynasty in Liverpool on Feb. 7 at 9,463, Dynamite at The O2 in London on Feb. 10 at 3,822, and WWE SmackDown in Manchester on Jan. 22, 2027 at 15,185. ## What is not known - What "out" means. 411Mania says "tickets out." eWrestlingNews uses "distributed" in one report and "sold" in another. None of the pages say whether comps and papered seats are counted. - Each building's capacity or seating setup. The reports do not give them, so the counts cannot be read as how full a show is. - The final Full Gear crowd. AEW has not released one. For context on how AEW has talked about its own crowds, see [our Jacksonville ticket story](https://wrestlingnews.com/story/tony-khan-blood-and-guts-biggest-jacksonville-ticket-sales/). The Survivor Series match card is in [our WarGames story](https://wrestlingnews.com/story/wwe-makes-womens-wargames-official-flair-team-vs-cargill-team/), and the Full Gear card is in [our card story](https://wrestlingnews.com/story/aew-full-gear-card-six-matches-nov-14/). ## What would confirm or kill it A WWE or AEW statement on attendance would settle it. So would the Observer's own follow-up after Full Gear. If a promotion reports a number that does not match, we will say so on this page. **How we know.** Reported by: the Wrestling Observer Newsletter (Dave Meltzer), as relayed by 411Mania on Nov. 13 and eWrestlingNews (Sap Sinha) on Nov. 13.
