Where to buy tickets for WWE SmackDown?

Tickets for WWE SmackDown: Ticket Master

Based on the latest tweet from WrestleTix regarding tonight's upcoming Blue brand episode, the arena's capacity is at 6,976 and 6,030 tickets have already been sold. There are only 946 tickets available, but this number has surely decreased as the event grows nearer.

Which superstars are scheduled for tonight's episode of SmackDown?

One of the matches advertised for the upcoming episode of the Blue brand is between Rey Mysterio and Karrion Kross. The two stars have been feuding ever since December of last year, and it looks like the animosity between the two still hasn't lessened.

For some tag team action, Braun Strowman, Ricochet, and Madcap Moss will join forces to take on Gunther, Giovanni Vinci, and Ludwig Kaiser of Imperium. All six men have a history with each other.

Strowman and Ricochet defeated Vinci and Kaiser to face The Usos for the brand's Tag Team Championship. Meanwhile, Moss was unable to defeat The Ring General for the Intercontinental title.

Fans will also get to witness the return of Bray Wyatt's Firefly Funhouse segment. It remains to be seen if the segment will remain the same or if a new format will take place.

WWE SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair will finally get to meet Rhea Ripley. The winner of this year's Women's Royal Rumble match and The Queen still hasn't met ever since their match was announced. Still, the history between the two opponents is enough for their rivalry to heat up.

Tonight's episode of SmackDown will feature more than just the fallout from the Elimination Chamber event, but also the build-up for the highly-awaited WrestleMania 39 show.
