AEW’s first-ever event from the United Kingdom will air on pay-per-view.
The event has already sold over 75,000 tickets and will come from the iconic Wembley Stadium in London, England. It will be the first professional wrestling event to be held at the iconic venue since SummerSlam 1992.
However, the big question has been how fans not lucky enough to be in the stands will be able to watch the action. Although part of that puzzle seems to have been solved.
Speaking on the Mat Men Podcast, Andrew Zarian reported that the event will be available on pay-per-view through Bleacher Report, and the company is also considering creating a package deal that will include All Out the following week.
“The other thing I confirmed with somebody today, double confirmed….so All In is a big question, right? What do you do it all in, right? Is it gonna be free? Are you gonna give it for free? Are you gonna charge a pay-per-view fee? Then you’re gonna charge another one the following month, right? Following week, right? You’re gonna do a hundred bucks. Well, it is a pay-per-view on BR [Bleacher Report].
Right now, I believe, I’m not a hundred percent on this, but I believe they’re working on some sort of bundle to get both, which makes a lot of sense. I know that it was a discussion. I don’t know if it’s gonna happen. I don’t know if BR has that ability, but BR is very limited, and they need to get off of it. And a lot of this has to do with, you know, the next, the next step in their TV.”
AEW Looking To Expand Pay-Per-View Schedule
The news comes after it was reported that AEW could be about to expand its pay-per-view schedule. The promotion currently hosts four PPVs per year with the Forbidden Door being an extra joint production between themselves and New Japan Pro-Wrestling.
However, that schedule could be boosted in a big way. It’s been reported that as part of the promotion’s new media rights deal with Warner Bros Discovery, it could follow WWE into running up to 12 events per year.
