[56 / 7 / 1]
AEW’s debut event in Australia was supposed to be a major milestone, but when Tony Khan appeared the crowd made their feelings loud and clear—they weren’t happy. Arkady served as the ring announcer for the night, while Tony Schiavone and Nigel McGuinness handled commentary for the Collision broadcast. But the real moment that stole the show before the matches even began was the reaction Khan received when he was introduced.>As soon as his name was announced, the Brisbane Entertainment Centre erupted in boos. The AEW President tried to push through the hostile crowd, calling Grand Slam: Australia a “dream come true” and hyping up the show as “one of the greatest nights in AEW history.” >Khan then made a bold promise, assuring fans that this wouldn’t be AEW’s last time in Australia. That line got some cheers, but the damage had already been done. The boos from the crowd were undeniable, signaling frustration from fans who have already been vocal about issues surrounding the event, including seating controversies and premium ticket holders feeling ripped off. The controversy started well before the event even began. AEW originally promoted Grand Slam: Australia as a stadium show at Suncorp Stadium, only to quietly move it to the much smaller Brisbane Entertainment Centre due to low ticket sales. The problem? Fans who paid for premium seats under the stadium layout weren’t offered refunds or price adjustments, leaving them feeling ripped off.

Does this mean there's going to be another Edge speech to open Dynamite next week?

>>17022122 It's a wake up call for Tony. Expect the quality, and possibly the whole booking philosophy of AEW, to change. This was actually a good thing for AEW in the long run. Something needed to be said, and changes are being made. Fans have been heard.

>>17023594 I think you might be right. Vince won last year but so far tony is gonna win 2025. I'm hoping for janella to get his ass kicked again. COPE is still in the running with that stupid name change. Jericho is embarrassing himself weekly, but they aren't usually as big as Tony's fuck ups. But there are many moths to go.

Oh look, more inflated negative press towards AEW. Despite Grand Slam being a great show. The aesthetic was unique and will be remembered as KINO. You shills will regurgitate whatever HQ spoon feeds you.

Remember aewtists creaming their panties over Hulk Hogan getting boo'd? Why does everything blow up in their face every single time? Karma is AEW's worst enemy.

>>17039380 This has nothing to do with Hogan. AEW's Austriallia run was suppose to be a PPV (yes it was) and fans spent $1K + on tickets, moved to a smaller venue cause the interest level wasn't enough to fill the stadium and those fans that spent $1K+ thought they were getting a PPV card not a Collision + ROH show
