Switched Up: WWE Reportedly Changes Longstanding Policy, Some Wrestlers Not Happy

Good problem? WWE has been on a roll in recent months, with a string of sellouts and one record being broken after another. That is something that makes the company very happy, as they are making money hand over fist. However, it seems that not everyone is entirely happy about what is going on, as it is causing a bit of an inconvenience for members of the locker room.

According to Fightful Select, various WWE wrestlers are reporting that the company is not distributing as many comp tickets for friends and family members. Instead, wrestlers are given a link for a special pre-sale to buy tickets before the general on-sale. It is not clear if this is a policy for the entire roster, but multiple wrestlers have reported being affected. One star said that they had been approved for such tickets months in advance and was then asked to pay for them the week of the show.

It’s a hot ticket. Check out what WWE has been doing on television:

Opinion: This is kind of a weird situation, as the wrestlers being annoyed is understandable, but at the same time, WWE is a business and not interested in giving up money for a perk. That being said, I can’t imagine the wrestlers are asking for 50 tickets each and every week. It might be a bit harsher than it needs to be, but things have been changing in WWE and this is the latest case.

What do you think of the policy change? Is WWE going too far? Let us know in the comments below.
