WWE Chairwoman and co-CEO Stephanie McMahon has touted SummerSlam 2022 as the most watched SummerSlam in WWE history.
McMahon touted WWE’s social media numbers, in addition to the announced attendance of 48,449 in the following statement:
This past weekend SummerSlam emanated live on Peacock from Nashville’s Nissan Stadium in front of a crowd of 48,449 and became the most-watched SummerSlam in company history.
During the week we surpassed 90M subscribers and 70B lifetime video views on YouTube, and 18M followers on TikTok. We were also proud to be the first brand that Epic Games rolled out across three games simultaneously: Fall Guys, Rocket League and Fortnite, timed to coincide with our Premium Live Event.
Without all of the WWE Superstars who poured their hearts out inside the ring, our incredible crews and teams behind the scenes, the WWE Universe, and our incredible partners and friends, none of the successes of this past weekend would have been possible.
A special thank you to the Tennessee Titans, Nissan Stadium, Xfinity, Samaritan, Wildhorse Saloon, Pure Life, Cricket Wireless, Nutrabolt, DraftKings, Constellation Brands, Papa Johns, and the entire Nashville LOC.
WrestleTix recently reported that the true final ticket count was actually closer to 40,117.
SummerSlam 2022 was the first premium live event following Vince McMahon’s retirement, and Triple H taking over WWE creative.
Triple H recently walked through his absolutely insane SummerSlam week schedule, which you can read about right here.
