I'd say that would be a slight exaggeration, they didnt even sell 90% in one day at the smaller venues, it is just how the tickets have been divided amongst different agents and sellers.
Re: **TNA Maximum iMPACT! Tour Discussion Thread**
Are you sure? I did a search for two tickets and the best I could find were in the upper level. I took a look at the map and it looks like they've curtained off about 1/4 of the arena.

There are a few seats in the lower tier left and some in the upper level. I think 80-90% has been sold already.

Re: **TNA Maximum iMPACT! Tour Discussion Thread**
Ticket sales have done really well and I am going to the wembley arena event in January. I am in the upper tier and decided too because you get a good view of the who9le arena and the action rather than being on the floor seats with everyone in the way lol. I went to the coventry event last year and it will be totally different from that event.
Re: **TNA Maximum iMPACT! Tour Discussion Thread**
Yeah, I got ma tickets for Wembley too: the best priced ones at the time. £45 each I think they were, not sure where what tier i'll be sitting in lol.
I went to the Coventry tour too: absolutely amazing. Even though it was a house show, so to speak, it totally blew Raw and Smackdown televised shows out of the water. Can't wait for January!!

Don't expect long PPV style matches. It will be more like WWE style quick matches. The last tour shows were 2 hours 30 minutes and that included a 20 minute interval and probably another 15 minutes of talking.
