WWE is a business and one of the most important things that the business is judged upon is by the tickets that WWE sells per show . The tickets sold mean the amount of interest there is in the WWE product and the more the number of tickets sold the more interest there is in WWE.
The other thing is that the number of tickets sold means more money is coming into the kitty of WWE and the company is getting richer by millions of dollars and the arena looks great when the arenas are filled with more than 10,000 fans every show. And Triple H in his first year as head of creative has sold more tickets in almost every market that WWE has been in over the past year. So, let’s look at the reasons as to why Triple H is selling more tickets than Vince McMahon
Fans are excited for a new vision for WWE
It had been 40 years and only the vision of one man was seen on WWE TV and at the start and till the early 2010s the vision of Vince McMahon was great and he was selling tickets at a fast pace and WWE was growing every year. Vince McMahon is the reason there is a WWE and nobody can escape from this fact because if there was no Vince McMahon there would not have been any WrestleMania, SummerSlam etc and professional wrestling would not be where it is today. However every good thing must come to an end and it did last year in July when Triple H took over as the head of creative and the WWE and it’s fans got a new lease of life and since then the fans have started flocking every WWE show because they want to see the vision of Triple H in front of their eyes.

Triple H has fresh ideas and he gives opportunities to multiple WWE superstars
One of the major complaints against Vince McMahon in his later years was the fact that there was a dearth of fresh ideas and not many hew WWE superstars were given the opportunities that they deserve and the number of releases that kept happening every year was not helping at all. When Triple H became head of WWE creature he brought in a lot of fresh ideas such as bringing the Survivor Series WarGames matches and the fight pit match in the main roster. Triple H brought back many of the returned WWE stars such as Dakota Kai, Johnny Gargano, Candice Lerae, Karrion Kross and Scarlett, Dexter Lumis, Braun Strowman, Mia Yim, Emma and so many others. They have got the chances and many of them are big stars now. The WWE fans appreciate the opportunities that Triple H gives the talent.

There is a trust in Triple H and WWE PPVs being all over the world is a great idea
The most important part of any relationship is trust and it seems the WWE universe has a lot of trust in Triple H. When he took over WWE creative, the first big announcement was Survivor Series WarGames and when the tickets went on sale it was sold out in minutes because it was a fresh idea. The Extreme Rules was also a great example of White Rabbit story and the PPV www a sell out. The biggest indicator of trust was when the tickets of WrestleMania 39 were put on sale more than 100,000 combined tickets were sold on the first day without any match being announced. This is trust and he has delivered on that trust. The latest is SummerSlam where more than 32,000 tickets were sold on the first day when the PPV is 4 months away.
And the idea of taking multiple WWE PPVs outside the USA was a genius idea. For example, having WWE Backlash in Puerto Rico was a great move as it resulted in a sell out of 18,000 tickets and millions of dollars in revenue. The Money in the Bank show will be in London and that show sold out in one minute meaning 20,000 tickets. And the Saudi Arabia shows always do very well for WWE selling more than 30,000 tickets per show. In 2024 Triple H and WWE will be looking to do big stadium shows in more countries.
