WWE Superstars React To Return To Touring – As noted, WWE announced that they are returning to the road with a 25-city tour that begins on Friday, July 16 with a live SmackDown at the Toyota Center in Houston, the Money In the Bank pay-per-view on Sunday, July 18 at the Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, and a live RAW on July 19 from the American Airlines Center in Dallas. Tickets for those three shows go on sale this Wednesday, and WWE will be announcing the rest of the dates in the coming weeks.

Several WWE Superstars took to Twitter this afternoon to react to the touring announcement.
Triple H touted the return to the road, WWE’s first touring since March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and said the company is welcoming back their biggest Superstars – the fans.
“As @WWE returns to the road this July, we welcome back our biggest Superstars, YOU, the @WWEUniverse. We cannot wait to hear, see, and feel the electricity of our live audiences again so I only have one question … #AreYouReady?,” he wrote.
WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns responded to the announcement with an in-character tweet.
He wrote, “Prepare for the opportunity to acknowledge your Tribal Chief live and in person.”
WWE Champion Bobby Lashley added, “Don’t miss your chance to see the greatest @WWE Champion of your lifetime LIVE in person! #WWERaw”
WWE Hall of Famer JBL looked forward to fans’ pent up demand from the lockdown being unleashed in arenas across the country.
