This is embarrassing man, I just got an email saying that they’re doing 2 for 1 ticket deals for the San Jose show. Why are you renting out a 18k seat arena when historically in the bay, you only sell around 4K tickets?

Also, the city of San Jose has literally built a new arena for the sharks minor league team that holds 4200 people, why not rent that out for a fraction of the price while having it look at least filled for TV?

I’m convinced TK just likes losing money at this point.


get ready for the AEW stans on here to call you a liar

San Jo is as loud as possible about not wanting AEW and that man Tony just IS NOT listening.

...that said, maybe I'll buy a ticket(get one free?) just in case Pam decide to show up to support Mercedes.

yup. The biggest draw to a live AEW show in my county of residence is a woman who doesn't even work for the company:yeshrug:if they promised she'd be there, I'd buy floor seats and deal with the sickos.

dunno what he was thinking trying to run the Sharks stadium though :francis: there may not be 18k people in all of California who want to see this show.

He's still got deals with arenas from when AEW had better days and it's cheaper to run at 15% than it is to cancel all the agreements and make new ones

Even if that weren't the case, he's the ultimate Mr. Me Too and everything WWE does he has to say me too. So if WWE's doing arenas he thinks needs to too

Otherwise he wouldn't be running to do internationals like WWE (Australia) when Australians say AEW's not even big there. WWE gets paid by cities to run major PLEs, he pays to be in Australia & Wembley lol. Yeah he's got no problem losing money to keep appearances up

Could probably fill the empty seats with wrestlers on contract that haven’t wrestled a match this year

Population of Reseda: 74,363.
eh
2020-2021 AEW was Big Budget PWG, so I feel it
2024 AEW is CZW with a TV deal and less viewership growth potential than a developmental show
I don't think Reseda would care enough to fukk with this show - it's a regular-ass dynamite set up to sit 3k in an 18k stadium. Most them hypebeast neckbeards would skip it just to be able to post extensively about how counterculture it makes them to not go :yeshrug:
Meanwhile, the rest of us realize it's also just... regular culture to not go.
