WWE confirmed a new slate of Canadian events for August on Monday. All three shows will run in Ontario. The announcement gained traction after Kevin Owens appeared in a promotional video revealing the dates.

The tour kicks off August 20 with a live event at Canada Life Place in London. SmackDown hits Scotiabank Arena in Toronto the next night on August 21. RAW closes the run August 24 at the Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa.

Tickets for all three events go on sale Friday, May 8, at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster. An exclusive presale drops Thursday, May 7, also at 10 a.m.

Toronto remains one of WWE’s strongest Canadian markets. Scotiabank Arena hosted Money in the Bank in 2024. That show saw Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton and Kevin Owens battle The Bloodline in the main event.

Owens remains out of action since February 2025 with a serious neck injury. His last match came at the Royal Rumble that January against Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship.

WWE has not yet announced the talent lineup for any of the three dates.
