Working On It: AEW Reportedly Making Changes To Live Event Scheduling Amid Ticket Sale Issues

They need a new plan. AEW has accomplished quite a bit in its history, though the company has only been around less than five years now. This includes a variety of success touring around the country to present their live events, though some shows have had larger crowds than others. That has been an issue for the company and now it seems they are ready to do something about it.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, AEW is making some changes to its live events as only pay per views are doing well. There has been speculation that AEW could be moving its television tapings to larger cities, though the larger venues could lead to higher rent costs. AEW has reportedly stopped offering late ticket price reductions and buy-one-get-one promotions, leading to lower ticket sales. There is no word if these options will be reintroduced.

AEW has had some big television shows. Check out some of their recent editions:

Opinion: This is the kind of problem that AEW definitely needs to address as having diminishing crowds over and over again cannot keep going. At the same time, all of the tricks in the world are only going to make things better, as the product itself might need to change to make fans more interested in what they have going on. For now, things need to improve in some way and it is good that AEW is addressing the problems.
