>>15636715I came to it based on ticket prices, the costs for everything from equipment, set up, concessions, flights for the talent involved (We know Tony pays for that out-of his own pocket)
Now, with this in mind and in contrast to the last year's show they more than likely cost the same to produce
Now for the sake of argument we'll take 81,035 at face value, that means multiplying the amount sold compared to cost.
Now, if we were to do the same to the '24 show then even if AEW drew say 75,000 to 78,000 and did the same multiplication and compared to cost - there'd be discrepancy but nothing too significant and it'd have been a success
With a dropoff as steep as this year's that comes nowhere near the (at face value) costs of up to $4, maybe 4 and a hald million to run the show
If the turnstile numbers come out soon we'll have a number more concrete than just 55k
