WWE Announces Multiple Live Events For The Rest Of 2022
Well the weather outside is ... well it's the weather I suppose, but soon it will be frightful, what with the fall giving into winter and the holiday season and all. That makes it a good time for WWE to release their upcoming schedule of shows for the latter part of 2022, including their annual holiday tour, where Christmas ornaments and that one A Day to Remember song will likely be featured heavily.
As announced today in a press release, WWE revealed where they'll be running "Raw" and "SmackDown" in November, December, and January 2023, with most of the dates taking place on the East Coast. The home of the late Hartford Whalers will host "SmackDown" on November 18, with the blue brand then traveling to Providence, Rhode Island, Buffalo, New York, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Chicago, Illinois, Tampa Bay, Florida and Memphis, Tennessee.
As for "Raw", three dates were announced for Washington D.C., Milwaukee, Wisconsin and Des Moines, Iowa respectively. Like the TV dates, WWE's Holiday tour will mostly stick to the east coast, save for a few shows in Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The most notable event on the tour is the December 26 date in Columbus, Ohio, which would mean WWE is running a second event that day, in addition to their annual post-Christmas Day show in Madison Square Garden. While not officially announced as of this writing, a report earlier this week revealed WWE would be continuing their tradition of running MSG this holiday season.
