What some of the smallest crowd you've seen at a WWE event. And i'm talking PPV or Raw/Smackdown. Not house shows, I noticed Survivor Series 04 only had 7500 fans. And Raw a few weeks ago was small to. What's the lowest you've seen and if possible post a video??

I saw a couple photos about half a year ago of someone who went to SmackDown and one full side of the arena was empty, like tarped off. It was the left side of the arena (if you were facing the stage. That must be pretty dissapointing to the wrestlers when fans aren't even there to watch you wrestle.
I went to a house show about a month ago and the whole end of the arena was empty, I don't know what WWE is going to do to get back in the game...

I had tickets to Survivor Series 2004, but couldnt make it to the show. I guess only like 7000 tickets were sold, though

I attended a Smackdown taping like this around 2001 I think. One entire side was tarped off expect for a few rows of fans in the front. They really stacked the other side though and when you watched it on TV the arena looked full. The magic of TV I guess... I know the thread creator said he didn't mean house shows but I just have to say...I have been to a couple of house shows where I felt embarrassed for the wrestlers because of the low attendence. I was surprised the events hadn't been cancelled due to low ticket sales.

That RAW during the night Benoit died. Wasn't funny in the least. I would say the Raw a few weeks ago. It was a small venue.

I read there actually doing less live events then last year and not losing money really ... I been to a Smackdown! taping in Reading, PA and it wasn't even sold out and its a very small arena. The night Jericho returned also wasn't even close to a sell out and I was suprised.

Once during a Smackdown Taping, there were so many empty seats, that people with tickets in the upper tiers or camera side, were ushered to sit on the floor and top price seating facing the camera as it was so empty. Must have been around 3000 fans there.

I went to Taboo Tuesday in 2004. I was in the middle sort of northwest of the ring. And well... Almost the entire backside and northeast end of the arena was empty. There were some front row seats still open and I really wanted to go down, but I thought I would get yelled at by the usher or something, and I didn't want to be kicked out : /
