This week’s episode of WWE SmackDown Live featured the return of Shane McMahon, an advertised United States Championship match that didn’t exactly go as planned, and a fatal 4-way main event to crown the new number one contender for the SmackDown Women’s Championship. However, it wasn’t enough to bring in the fans because there were a lot of empty seats this week.

Unfortunately poor attendance seems to be a trend with WWE events as of late as there were quite a few empty seats at Raw last week as well. The situation didn’t look much better at Raw this week in San Jose because the entire upper section of the arena was closed.
You can check out a photo from this week’s Raw taping below.
The upper section of the arena was also closed off for SmackDown Live this week, and the hard camera side of the arena was almost completely empty.
Poor attendance happens from time to time as selling out every arena in every city is a tough task, but the fact that this seems to be a reoccurring thing as of late isn’t a good sign for WWE.
It looks like the company might have to make some changes to get fans to start buying tickets again.
