WWE has scheduled a Holiday Live Tour stop in Tampa on Dec. 28. Both RAW and SmackDown will perform in a single night. Benchmark International Arena hosts this event \u2014 the only doubleheader on the 10-date tour.<\/p>\n

The wrestling company unveiled 10 event dates scattered throughout the United States as part of its annual Holiday Live Tour, according to WWE’s official announcement<\/a>. The tour begins Dec. 3 in Rockford, Illinois. It concludes Dec. 30 with shows in Pittsburgh and Columbus, Georgia.<\/p>\n

Tampa’s show will showcase a roster of 12 wrestlers. Seth Rollins, Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Gunther, LA Knight, Oba Femi, Bron Breakker, Trick Williams, Jade Cargill, and Tiffany Stratton will appear. The Bloodline and The Judgement Day will also perform.<\/p>\n

Per That’s So Tampa<\/a>, tickets become available Oct. 2 at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster. A presale starts Oct. 1 for fans who want access before the general public.<\/p>\n

The tour will also visit Madison Square Garden on Dec. 26. Other cities on the schedule are Wilkes Barre, Syracuse, Hampton, Detroit, and Nashville.<\/p>\n

Last year’s Holiday Tour saw a drop in attendance based on estimated tickets distributed from WrestleTix. Shows on that tour averaged an estimated 6,700 tickets distributed. Yet Fightful Select reported that the Baltimore and Worcester, Massachusetts, live events were the highest-grossing house shows in their respective cities’ history.<\/p>\n

The Holiday Tour has made up the majority of house show schedules during the TKO era. This year, the company has increased the number of live tours, with many taking place overseas and outside of the mainland United States.<\/p>\n

Tickets start at $45.50 for the Wilkes Barre show.
