AEW All In is set to become the biggest paid-attendance wrestling event of all time.
In a recent edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer revealed that AEW’s highly anticipated All In event is on the verge of shattering WWE‘s WrestleMania 32 record for paid attendance. With the event just over a week away, AEW has sold over 80,000 tickets for their upcoming extravaganza at Wembley Stadium.
At press time, there were 80,544 tickets out, which this past week passed both the 1992 SummerSlam and the 1934 Jim Londos vs. Kola Kwariani numbers. The final hurdle would be WrestleMania 32 in 2016, which had 80,709 in the building.
Currently, AEW’s All In has surpassed the previous record set by WWE’s SummerSlam 1992, which drew 79,127 fans. The event has already secured an impressive 80,000+ attendees, leaving them within striking distance of breaking WrestleMania 32’s paid attendance of 80,709. The wrestling community is buzzing with excitement as AEW inches closer to making history.
The All In event promises to be an unforgettable spectacle, featuring high-stakes matches for the AEW World Championship, AEW Tag Team Championship, AEW Women’s Championship, and ROH Tag Team Championship. Fans can expect to witness electrifying performances from some of the industry’s top talents, including MJF and Adam Cole, who are set to clash for the AEW World Championship.
If AEW All In reaches its current production layout of 84,048 fans, it will mark the largest gate for a professional wrestling show ever. The event’s potential to break the all-time attendance record for paid seats at a wrestling event adds even more excitement to the mix. The wrestling world eagerly awaits to witness this historic moment.
Will AEW All In Be The Highest Attended Wrestling Event Ever?
AEW All In looks set to become the highest-paid attendance for a wrestling event of all time. However, the highest attendance, paid or unpaid, event is currently WCW/NJPW’s Collision in Korea event, which took place in Pyongyang, North Korea and was reported to have a staggering 165,000 people in attendance.
