I think we would have to consider the venues they are running. The first designation was called a sell out with 500 people.

To be fair, that's nxt with the 550 number not the main roster.Nxt also drew 13000 last summer.
I was looking at Meltzer 2015 issue, wwe only drew a $2 million plus gate once while Ufc had 10 and another one early January. Both Ufc and ncaa wrestling had more 15,000 plus events than WWE.

I think we also have to consider that other than the 11th Raw, those was house shows. Currently Cena, Orton, and Bryan are injured and Brock Lesnar really doesn't do House Shows. That's arguably the four biggest names on the WWE roster right now not available for the house shows. So drawing 11.3K fans over a 3 day span in relatively small markets in LA & AL isn't that bad and drawing another 7K fans in Houston, with a split roster. If the WWE was only drawing 5K for a MNR in a city like Boston, I'd truly begin to worry/rejoice (depending on your rooting interests) about the WWE's lack of ability to draw.

Honestly I stole both the question and numbers from another website (PWInsider maybe?)
They were claiming the numbers were way down. I have no idea, personally.
