That’s crazy. I know it’s over two days but that’s impressive as f*** nonetheless…

[lionheart21]

That is one hell of an accomplishment for the new era to hold claim to

Since Snoop owns Death Row I need him to bring back hologram Pac at Mania with California Love as the theme of this show…

People cannot wait to see Cody as WWE champion.

Plus The Rock is maybe gonna be there.

And the updated WrestleTix numbers as of yesterday have the tickets sold up to 98,000.

I'm thinking people know by the the brothers blood feud between Elias and Ezekiel will be climaxing and will prob be headlining one of the nights.

This is Hit Row being draws

I’ll be honest. Didn’t really care that wrestlemania was in my neighborhood the way it was. But now that Vince is gone, I was super excited for it and considering it

Nash: You know by working with HBK in NXT, I drew 198,000 to SoFi Stadium?

Shelly: Do SoFi even hold that much?

Nash: It will that night.

I think part of it is LA being a much better travel destination for fans and the feeling they may see something big with Cody/maybe Rock. Plus I imagine this year sees the return of more international fans than the past two years. I think they can get close to 70-80K for each night. It's also evidence to me that AEW should still try a stadium show in the next year or so. When you create a show that feels big, it will sell.

[BayleyTiffyCodyCenaJudyHopps]

With all of the talk about ratings, demos, and people dropping cable aside, who's a draw and who isn't and what that exactly means, etc, bottom line is, the public still loves pro wrestling. Doesn't look like that's changing.

Hologram Kobe vs. Abraham Washington or GTFO

Fed….in the…mud?

Shit.

Seriously though that’s a crazy amount sold so quick. No card, no big name returns announced yet. They could probably open up more seats if they actually get Rock for the show

Also, this was originally the venue where they were meant to run Wrestlemania 37 before it had to be relocated to the Thunderdome.

So you have a crowd that has their chance again to experience Wrestlemania, coupled with the return of international fans, and also a newfound confidence in the overall product by the fans, as shown by the seemingly-complete 180 that many of us here have done. Basically going from a boring slog through a seemingly-unwatchable product done mainly out of the slight chance we may see something interesting to what feels like a fresh new experience that we actually look forward to seeing on a regular basis.

That is a winning combination.

With Vince out of the picture, that actually seems like a possibility now.

They never had a WrestleMania in the Thunderdome.  WrestleMania 36 was held at the Performance Center several months before the Thunderdome concept was introduced while WrestleMania 37 was held in a stadium with limited capacity.

LA is a very underrated wrestling market. Probably some east coast bias involved, but wrestling does real well out there.

I stand corrected.
