WrestleMania will be a two-night event for the third year in a row in 2022 and WrestleMania 38 will take place on April 2 and April 3 at AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas.

Tickets for The Showcase Of The Immortals went on sale last week but ticket sales have been lower than WWE expected, according to Wrestling Observer's Dave Meltzer.

"'Mania tickets, I don't have a number but you could tell from the push really hard and everything like that [that they are] far far far far far from a sellout. I didn't expect it would be this quick. The first time they went to AT&T Stadium, it actually didn't sell out until a week out and that was for one show... I know that the number was lower than they expected," Meltzer began.

"It's funny because when I talked with them a couple of weeks ago, [they said] because we're gonna do two shows, we're gonna make it price-wise easier. And they did not do that and that may have been a mistake. I mean the price is really high, high enough to scare people away. There is a certain thing that you can charge more money for WrestleMania than any other show but there is a limit on everything as far as how much you can charge."

Meltzer also noted that WWE have already started reducing ticket prices in some sections of AT&T Stadium.

"I know that some tickets have already been lowered. It may have been one of those things where they start off with super high prices figuring that the people who really want tickets bad will pay those prices and there will be a lot of them and there were and then they start lowering it afterwards. So that maybe how it all turns out," he added.
