WWE IS REPORTEDLY BEHIND AEW IN TERMS OF TICKET SALES

[dodona]

AEW and WWE are both getting back on the road. They have touring dates announced for multiple cities and fans are starting to buy seats for those events. The biggest issue for WWE is that they are now behind AEW in terms of ticket sales per show. ... Dave Meltzer noted that WWE had a “very good first week” in Texas, and the Houston SmackDown show is doing well on July 16th. Money in the Bank is likely to sell out as well. The rest of their shows are not selling very well except for a RAW in Chicago at the All State Arena. AEW is beating them out in other markets. ...WWE also lost a lot of goodwill among the fan base during the pandemic. One controversy after another could have caused many to tune out. We’ll have to see if a return to live touring will bring them back as Vince McMahon’s company hoped

als entschiedener Verfechter des freien Marktes kann ich es nur begrüßen, dass der Monopolist offensichtlich ins Wanken geraten ist. Nun müssen wir die Daumen drücken, dass ROH, Impact&Co rasch aufschließen, denn ein Monopol durch ein anderes zu ersetzen, bringt nichts.
