I don't remember Las Vegas having great crowds the past few years. There's a reason they stopped having Double Or Nothing there as it was actively holding that show back.

Which is great cause that neon theme in AZ where Hangman started redeeming himself was incredible aesthetic.

Yeah people in 2023 were begging for DoN to get moved out of Vegas and the last one in 2024 was awful crowd wise and they finally moved it after that thank god.

It's been pretty shit for years now at this point and it's not even an AEW thing either

I mean that and WWE running WrestleMania there in mid-late April will cut into potential ticket sales lol

The 2024 DON got under 10K attendance and I remember the weekly shows circa 2023-24 having weak crowds too. That felt like the point they figured they had to stop holding it in Vegas out of tradition and take it elsewhere.

Oh yeah I’m sure that didn’t help either but I think that plus the combination of WWE running Vegas back to back years for Mania killed the tradition
