The merger of WWE and UFC continues to show their synergy's power. The two powerful entities joined as part of TKO Group Holding last year and have slowly started to work in unison. Although fans have yet to see an active UFC fighter step into a WWE ring, both companies are trying to get each other fanbase familiar with each other.

In their latest attempt, UFC has announced on X/Twitter a special offer for fans to see their upcoming fight night event and WWE Friday Night Smackdown next month. Both companies will be hosting an event at the KFC Yum! Center Arena in Louisville, Kentucky. Smackdown will host a live episode on June 7. The following day, UFC will feature a fight night event with a main event between middleweights Jared Cannonier and Nassourdine Imavov.

Fans must purchase their tickets through Fevo-Enterprise before the deadline on June 3. The ticket provider allows two price options worth $150 and $175. Although the deal may look compelling, it does come with some stipulations.

Fevo-Enterprise is enforcing that two tickets must be purchased to attend both shows. In addition, fans will have limited seating choices, as the bundle only applies to the upper bowl sections of the KFC Yum! Center Arena.

It seems the decision to bundle the ticket prices could result in slow sales for both shows. UFC has many tickets available in the upper bowl that aren't being bought for as low as $69 on Ticketmaster. While it isn't looking good for UFC in possibly selling out the venue, WWE looks to be having a more challenging time.

The June 7 Smackdown event has yet to release full seating options for the KFC Yum! Center Arena. Currently, WWE has tickets available on Ticketmaster for as low as $33 and ringside seats for $580. It is worth noting that, unlike the UFC, WWE has yet to announce matches or who will be on the June 7 episode of Friday Night Smackdown. However, both companies' shows aren't doing well selling out on their own at this time.

WWE and UFC working together to bundle their tickets for their shows at the KFC Yum! Center Arena could be very beneficial. Fans attending either show can now watch two spectacle events for that weekend. It's unclear if this decision will help push sales, but it is an intelligent strategy for TKO Group Holding and could lead to more bundles in the future.
