Time after time, whether or not it was the very first AEW present the place we did the quickest sell-out within the historical past of Las Vegas for professional wrestling, that’s one thing we had by no means completed.
I’d say by no means depend out AEW in any side of the professional wrestling enterprise. We now have amazed folks from our very first present till proper now. It’s superb what AEW has completed in 5 years. The leaps and bounds AEW has grown is basically an incredible factor we’ve completed.
