The U.S. is of course a big market for pro wrestling (just like it is for all entertainment).
But the WWE sells out almost instantly when they tour Europe.
Also Japan has been one of the biggest proponents of pro wrestling for over 50 years. WWE can't even break into that market because the pro wrestling companies there are too big in Japan.
Puerto Rico and Mexico have similar HUGE pro wrestling fan bases with their own companies that are so successful that WWE can't really make inroads into their "territory".
Add Canada to that as well (Brett Hart and the Hart family are considered legit national sports heroes there).
