Title against Cody Rhodes, is the first independent event in the United States to sell over 10,000 tickets, and the first U.S. organization to sell 10,000 tickets other than WWE since WCW went out of business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve had offers from major companies saying they would pay for every penny, and we told them no because if it doesn\u2019t succeed it\u2019s on us,\u201d Nick Jackson told the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chicagotribune.com\/suburbs\/ct-all-in-wrestling-chicago-young-bucks-cody-20180511-story.html\">Chicago Tribune<\/a> in a story published this past weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets were priced below a typical price for a major wrestling event, which may have contributed to the fast sellout (but given how quickly it sold out, probably not).<\/p>\n<div class=\"trb_ar_page\" data-role=\"pagination_page\" data-content-page=\"1\">\n<p>\u201cThe reason tickets are below market is because it\u2019s not a get-rich-quick scheme,\u201d Cody told the Tribune. \u201cFans are making efforts to find us so we want to make an effort for them. We will not say it\u2019s sold out unless all the seats are filled.&#8221; The capacity for the event is 10,154.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe only number we are interested in is 10,000,\u201d Matt said.<\/p>\n<p>They got it. In 29 minutes and change.
