WWE Survivor Series: WarGames 2025, taking place tonight, November 29, 2025, at Petco Park in San Diego, is poised to be the most financially successful Survivor Series in the event’s history. The show’s success has sparked immediate internal discussion about the possibility of WWE running another stadium show for the 2026 Survivor Series.
A New Gate Record for Survivor Series
The ticket sales figures confirm the event’s record-breaking success. Dave Meltzer reported in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that ticket distribution was almost complete at press time, confirming a huge attendance number and a record-setting gate.
Meltzer provided the specific ticket data: “At press time, Survivor Series has 42,750 tickets out with about 1,200 left, which is by far the biggest Survivor Series ever for tickets and even more for gate. The secondary market get-in price is $113.”
The figure of 42,750 tickets represents a significant increase in scale for the event, which is typically held in indoor arenas. The high secondary-market get-in price of $113 further underscores the demand for the show, which is headlined by two star-studded WarGames matches. The impressive attendance and gate numbers prompted internal conversations about applying the same stadium model to future Survivor Series events.
Early Discussion of a 2026 Stadium Show
The strong performance of the ticket sales prompted immediate internal discussion about repeating the stadium format next year. Bryan Alvarez, writing to his subscribers on X, confirmed that talk of running another stadium for the 2026 Survivor Series is already underway.
He wrote, “Around 40,000 for today’s show. Already talk of running another stadium for 2026 Survivor Series.”
WrestleMania 42 Teases Expected Tonight
The atmosphere tonight is being deliberately heightened by WWE creative, who are planning to use the show to plant the seeds for their 2026 flagship event. Meltzer reported that fans should expect major teases regarding the top matches at WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas. Meltzer outlined the creative strategy for tonight:
“The belief is that a major tease of the top WrestleMania match or even matches will be this weekend at Survivor Series on 11/29 at Petco Park in San Diego.”
