Are tickets for WWE Royal Rumble 2023 sold out?

WWE Royal Rumble 2023 is one of the most exciting and awaited wrestling shows there is, which is why the current status of the tickets for the January Premium Live Event is not surprising.

The Stamford-based promotion will start its year with a major Premium Live Event, Royal Rumble. Many big-time names are being rumored to return for the 30-man Rumble match, with the advertisement even sparking a major name set to return due to its layout.

This year's January event poster has stars like Brock Lesnar and Cody Rhodes, causing fans to expect their return inside the ring soon. Along with them are Roman Reigns, Kevin Owens, Bianca Belair, Rhea Ripley, and more. Despite not being present in the visual, the "electrifying" layout also caused theories that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson might also be part of the Rumble match.

According to WrestleTix, WWE Royal Rumble 2023 tickets are already on their way to being sold out. As of December 2022, 33,766 tickets were already sold with a capacity being 36,132. No doubt the remaining 2,366 tickets have gone down and it's only a matter of time before the tickets are all sold out.

Aside from the 30-man Rumble match for the men's and women's divisions, other matches have already been announced for WWE Royal Rumble 2023. Bray Wyatt will battle LA Knight in a Pitch Black Match while Roman Reigns will defend the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Kevin Owens.
