Why is AEW's biggest PPV of the year taking place in front of a crowd the size of a RAW show?

8,712 is the max capacity they can do here nowadays. The only way to reach 10k is by opening standing room seats which becomes a fire hazard. If WWE weren't gatekeepers, they'd be selling out Allstate Arena too.

In theory you start at something like Jacksonville for Homecoming for down seasons and plot a 52 week course around the nation since every Dynamite typically includes two tapings for Dark and Rampage outside of a few exceptions. Tony seems to burn out some markets hard though since he's largely just relegated to the east side of the USA.
