Hi everyone. I was wondering how do people get these front row tickets to the events? Every time I try to buy tickets, they are already gone or they are high-priced on Stubhub. Is it only possible on Stubhub? I really want to sit front row once. I want it to be the seats in camera-view (I know that makes it even more difficult). Thank you!

Some people do have the hook ups but otherwise I think a lot of people pay a ton for them, or they are family/friends of the employees or arena.

A lot are comped to families and friends or given away to local media outlets (radio, television, etc.).
Other than that...I dunno.
The only time I ever sat front row was for the last NXT show in Cleveland. That was just luck from getting tickets early.

I've gotten good seats to house shows, but I think for TV and PPV that the first few rows are held for those with connections. If you look at the front row that's always on camera, at the big shows it's always the same people now.

Stubhub for crazy prices. But worth it.

Luck
Going to a local show and them selling advanced tickets for an other show later in the year. Had a friend do that at a smackdown taping. They announced they would be selling tickets at the box office after the show for a raw that was 5 months away. He get front row center on the hard side.
I've got front row for nxt, smackdown and house shows straight from ticketmaster .

For pay per views with Travel packages the first 5 rows are reserved for those people, so unless you get one of those you aren't getting tickets in those rows. The highest priced travel pack guarantees you first 2 rows.
For other events, ticket master will have VIP Platinum seating available at very high prices. And as others have said, some are comped.

It's relatively easy for house shows. Just be ready to go during pre-sales and general on-sales and buy immediately. Or, conversely, wait until the last minute when they release the tickets they've held onto for families/radio/promotions/etc.
I really only go to house shows if I can sit front row. I've grown so accustomed to it that I don't really like doing anything less. I'll take 2nd row too, though. I've gotten front row for house shows a dozen or so times, usually by getting them the morning of the on-sale, but once I walked right up to the box office the day of the show and they had released nearly a whole rows worth in the front. That was cool.
For TV and Pay-Per-Views, it's much harder. Those tend to be easier to get the week of the show, when they release the wave of comped tickets they didn't need and the VIP seats that were too expensive and didn't sell. Frequently, though, you'll need connections or be willing to pay high prices, particularly for Pay-Per-Views.

You will be lucky if you can find front row seats after the early sales are done.

Make some "hilarious" signs, dress yourself up in a blue shirt and a red cap and look like a right tit. Other than that, fork out a shit-load of money.

Be on Ticketmaster or whatever the second they go on sale, have your credit card ready and be fully prepared for your wallet to feel much lighter after clicking "buy tickets." That's honestly how to get them.
Sometimes you can get lucky and if people on the side where the camera shows don't show up, they'll move people front row so there aren't gaping empty holes on live TV. But that's something you can't really bank on.

I subscribe to Ticketmaster's mailing list so I get a few emails which give me pre sale access to various events. That's how I've gotten front row to house shows.

Either that or go to wrestling school, get a WWE tryout and become a WWE superstar....once you get into a feud where you get fired or barred from the building you can get front-row tickets easily.
