- This year, the 4th of July falls on a Tuesday and WWE officials are reportedly bracing for a difficult night for ticket sales for Smackdown. In fact, they are running a special two-for-one ticket offer where fans would get to attend both Raw and Smackdown for one price. Both the 7/3 Raw and the 7/4 Smackdown are slated to take place at the Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, AZ.
