Seeing how the european tour went doing very well, Will WWE start considering doing PLEs (mania, summerslam, etc) or big events at big internaitonal stadiums like Wembley Stadium, Estadio Azeteca, Camp nou, Maracanã Stadium, etc within the next few years. the crowds outside the us are amazing so do you expect wwe to start making plans to do these soon?
Quite frankly, WWE will go where they can land more profit. If they believe they can go to a place and the ticket sales, site fees, and the like will outweigh the cost of doing business elsewhere, that's what they will probably do.
Heard of any current injury or Visa issues with Shida or Riho?
No, I've not. Most talent claimed that Shida had been in Orlando in recent months. If they've faced visa issues, I've not heard about it.
Does AEW get a discount when they book the same venue for Wednesday and Thursday?
Yes, and a lot of times Wednesdays and Thursdays are slow nights for arena bookings so that helps out too.
