Easily 6k+ at show time.

Mercedes is a draw.

AEW beats WWE in the ratings in Canada and the UK so not really surprising. Tony needs to do some UK shows soon.

Tickets started to move like crazy after Mercedes made her debut.

The Christian vs Cope match was announced long before that. Keep seething.

Well, Cope vs Christian was announced the first week of March and there was minimal movement until Wednesday and they've moved over 1000 tickets since then, so I'm not sure it's the hometown boys.tndxy0ry

Can they really not afford to run ScotiaBank? The Cola Cola arena is in an area that's basically abandoned during winter.

I'm happy for them and hope they do well. When AEW does things we repeatedly ask them to do, like rent appropriate arenas instead of ones with 10,000 tarped seats, they deserve to be recognized for doing a smart thing.

The next AEW Dynamite in the United States will be in the DCU Center
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DCU_Center
>Capacity Concerts: 14,800

So when it inevitably fails to reach 1/3 capacity, we can resume laughing at AEW. Until then, I will not only let them have this, I will celebrate them for it.

Short man midget Tazz blackmailing Tony to book his midget son to go over guys twice his size. I'm starting to despise that motherfucker. Hook sucks and should be on ROH. Tazz inserted him into Team Tazz to leech off Ricky Starks and Hobbs to catapult him up. Where are Starks and Hobbs now? Now look at Hook.

Right now they should only be booking the 4-8k capacity arenas and save the 10k+ arenas for PPVs and special episodes of TV. I don't know why they go forth with booking huge buildings for run of the mill Dynamites and Collisions. Even if they get a good deal and make a decent amount of money off of the few tickets they sell they look so small time. Same thing happened with 2019 WWE.

Tony can not handle the idea that he's not in the same ballpark as the WWE right now. He needs to roll up to a big arena rather than an appropiately sized venue.

>>13824620
This isn't the 2000s, even casuals are "smart" nowadays. They all use twitter, and they all get fed this stuff by the algorithm. They see hardcam photos and think "this aew thing is dead af" and don't give it attention.

I'm a lapsed fan since 2014. Seeing all the tarp memes about WWE back in 2019 gave me the impression it was on its knees, a perception that lasted until a few months ago. I perceived AEW as TNA 2.0 so never bothered checking it out. It was the buzz around Wembley that got me to give AEW a chance back in August because that gave it legitimacy.

Yup. It was finding out they had Punk, Bryan, Cesaro, Ambrose, Jericho, Joe. Then I fell off because I turned on Dynamite and had no idea if I was going to see them or a bunch of frail
indy shitters and no name nips.

Vince killed the idea of draws and replaced it with the branding being the draw after the problems he had with AE stars being too big for their boots. Roman can hop up to Dynamite tomorrow and it'll probably get 100k additional viewers at best.

^This is the reality. None of them can really draw. The only way to reverse it is by changing public perception of wrestling over many years, imo, reversing 20 years of pure feces. It's not impossible, but I don't think anyone can do it at this point. We're talking about reversing decades of ingrained bad habits. It won't happen.

In order for any of that to happen AEW needs to be at the top of its game as a rival promotion and WWE to abandon its slop, corporatized style of wrestling into a more edgy, harder hitting and believable product. It ain't ever happening, IMO. It's way too far gone.
