AEW AEW CII: A Timeless Blockbuster

[Max Power]

The arena thing had me wondering. They're paying for large arenas and half-filling them. Why not book smaller arenas and pack them? Filling an 8K arena looks much better than getting 8K fans in a 20K one, with less overhead. It looks better on TV, gives a better energy to the fans, and when they do book a large venue it'll be more special and do better business.

I have no idea. Perhaps they were all booked well in advance or something. All I know is that it makes the shows look incredibly cold, depressing and small time. Also, from what I see on Twitter, they wish they were getting 8k fans at their shows.

They do book smaller arenas and pack them......some weeks. Last week Dynamite went to Houston and they did a small arena in the suburbs in Rosenberg, TX and they filled it. This week they're doing a small arena in Philly on the campus of Temple University and that one looks like it's gonna be a sell out as well. The Houston show did so well they opened up sections behind entrance screen the day before.

The problem they've ran in to is when they did start to book more NBA arenas, they sold tickets at an affordable price and were filling those too initially, for whatever reason they doubled, tripled, and quadrupled ticket prices depending on the market over the last few months they burned out their fan bases in those markets. People think Tony Khan liked the bigger gates vs. the attendance for whatever reason. Arthur Ashe stadium for example did 21k tickets it's first year, the next year did 12k tickets, but had a bigger gate cause of price raise, the 3rd year they raised prices again and only sold 8k with 72 hours before the show, they did a last minute ticket price drop and some 2for1's and they filled it up to 11k.

It seems they've gone back to the smaller arenas and reduced prices and future buildings are already selling much better.

Im also starting to honestly think that Wardlow doesnt have it to become the star many predicted.

Wardlow has all the signs of a guy who is checked out. I dunno when his contract is up, but he looks like a dude who's just running it out.
