Roman Reigns announced for WWE Money in the Bank London as fans given final chance to bag tickets

British wrestling fans keen to see Money in the Bank in London have one last chance to buy tickets with single night tickets now set to go on sale on Friday.

The high-flying event is one of the highlights of WWE's live event calendar and is set to be hosted outside of North America for the first time when it comes to London's O2 on July 1.

The venue is also playing host to Friday Night Smackdown which will air live from the arena on June 30, with current Undisputed Champion Roman Reigns today confirmed as appearing on both shows.

Thousands of fans snapped up combo tickets to see the two shows but on Friday they will be given the first chance to buy a single night ticket to WWE's first pay per view in London for more than thirty years.

Individual tickets for both the Friday Night Smackdown and Saturday's Money in the Bank show will go on sale on Ticketmaster from 10am on Friday (May 19).

Fans who haven't yet got a combo ticket and want to buy both can pick up remaining combo tickets before 3pm on Thursday (May 18) although with current remaining combo ticket prices at around the £600 mark fans are likely to be able to find cheaper individual seats in Friday's general sale.

There has been unprecedented excitement about the weekend, which comes after WWE's record-breaking trip to Cardiff for Clash at the Castle last September.

More than 60,000 fans packed out Cardiff's Principality Stadium when Roman Reigns took on Drew McIntyre in September, with the Scotsman saying the event was 'just the beginning' for high-profile WWE events in the UK - a statement proved true by the announcement of the firm's high profile London visit later this summer.

Fans snapped up tens of thousands of tickets within minutes of both pre-sale and general sale Money in the Bank tickets going live in February, with Ticketmaster even delaying the pre-sale ticket launch by an hour to ensure they were prepared for the demand.

Early sales at one point saw more fans in the virtual queue to buy tickets for the event than will actually be able to get into the venue to see it in person meaning Friday's single-ticket general is for many the first chance to pick up affordable tickets having initially missed out.

Meanwhile, MyLondon reports 96% of hotels within a mile of The O2 are already sold out for the nights WWE is in town.

Money in the Bank is renowned for having high-flying, chaotic matches packed with excitement and drama, with winners of the iconic briefcase getting a championship match at a time and place of their choosing at any time within the next year.

Last year's winners, Austin Theory and Liv Morgan, both won titles off the back of cashing in their wins.
