AEW's PPV picture still isn't totally in focus, but we're hearing more.

Fightful Select has learned that as of last year there was major discussion within AEW to have the Double or Nothing event away from Las Vegas, where it’s been held each year aside from Jacksonville. WWE WrestleMania is set to take place just a month prior, and is factoring into the decision, we’re told. 

Those that we have spoken to believe AEW is unlikely to release their entire year of PPV dates ahead like last year. WWE running a competing show in Orlando when AEW had announced their World's End event months ahead was cited as a reason.

I wouldn't imagine we'd know where DoN is until Revolution, probably if anything to stop WWE countering.

Ali Khan

I would do it in Toronto!!!!

Taters Precious

Stinks honestly. Really enjoyed having reasonable notice for World's End.

Well if they want to keep it in Vegas, move it to NashVegas.

Ryan

Toronto needs a PPV

JOSE G FLORES

New Orleans for Double or Nothing makes perfect sense to me.

Flameducky

Detroit (street racing) would fit the theme

AH

Or maybe just don't worry about what wwe does

Hope Seattle/Tacoma gets a PPV again this year!

Mike Wall

It's not that simple. Not when WWE is doing their usual predatory practices that many hoped would end when Vince was out.

If as a business, you're not paying attention to your competition, you are running a faulty business.

I think waiting too long is a mistake because people need to plan. Especially as I like to fly in for one or two events. But I do think moving from Vegas this year is likely the right move. I think most PPVs should rotate stands to reason diminishing returns when you have it at the same place every year. And a month away from Mania is a tough ask for locals if they pay as much as they will for Mania to then go to another event.

They’ve sold really well at the TD Garden in Boston the last two Dynamites here. Would have to think a guaranteed gate of 10k+ tickets for a PPV.

If they wanted to keep with the casino theme, what about Atlantic City?

Alexander Fitzgerald

Atlantic City or Dailys Place would be two good places. I'm just glad AEW is realizing this is the year they shouldnt be in Vegas with Mania being so close. No one wants to spend that much money especially in Vegas
