Fans hoping to see John Cena’s last appearance on Monday Night Raw at Madison Square Garden are paying prices usually reserved for WWE’s biggest premium live events.
Cena’s farewell Raw appearance, set for later this Monday in New York, has caused a massive surge in secondary market ticket prices. The cheapest ticket currently available to get inside the iconic venue is $225, while a fourth-row floor seat is listed for $2,031.
Those numbers are nearly identical to what fans are paying to attend Survivor Series at Petco Park in San Diego, which is scheduled to be Cena’s final premium live event before stepping away from WWE. The cheapest ticket to get into Survivor Series is $179, and a 15th-row floor seat is going for $1,735.
The pricing spike underscores the demand to witness the final chapter of Cena’s two-decade WWE career, especially at two landmark shows — one at the most famous arena in the world and the other marking an emotional goodbye on one of WWE’s biggest annual stages.
With both events selling fast and ticket values climbing, fans who want to see Cena one last time may have to pay a premium to be part of history.
