WWE Survivor Series last year on Nov. 25 generated a gate of $2,240,645 from 16,579 tickets sold, according to new data released today or yesterday from Pollstar.
The Smackdown the night before in the same venue, at the Allstate Arena just outside Chicago in Rosemont, Ill., drew a $982,372 gate from 15,777 ticket sales.
WrestleTix estimated 17,102 tickets distributed (tickets sold plus comps) for Survivor Series. For Smackdown, WrestleTix estimated 15,937.
A gate of just over $2.2 million is consistent with WWE Chief Content Officer Paul Levesque’s comments at the post-show press conference, where he said the event was the highest-grossing Survivor Series event in history and the highest-grossing event in Chicago except for Wrestlemania 22. Wrestlemania that year, in 2006, WWE reported at the time in a press release had a gate of $2.5 million. In today’s dollars, $2.5 million in 2006 is the equivalent of about $3.8 million.
Survivor Series in 2022 in Boston had a gate of $1,574,882, according to Pollstar data.
Survivor Series in 2021 in Brooklyn had a gate of $1,383,085, according to the same source.
