With WWE getting hot crowds in international markets, do you think AEW should try and do the same? Maybe run a European tour leading up to Forbidden Door in London?
Whenever AEW does decide to do that, I would expect a number of double tapings, and maybe even filming two weeks of television in a week. Based on what I've seen they want all of these ventures to be profitable ones. I know for the first All In, they didn't do TV around there because they wanted the audience to choose to go to Wembley. Forbidden Door will almost surely be in a smaller venue, so if I were them, I'd do TV in the UK, too.
What have you heard about Stone Cold’s involvement for any of the nights of Wrestlemania this year?
He's going to be in town that week doing photo ops and signings. He had a total knee replacement in December, so I would be surprised to see him get physical. I haven't heard of any matches pitched to him as of yet. Not to say I always hear, but the last few times we had heard by now that he'd been pitched matches.
Do you know if Max plans on adding more AEW library content?
They will be adding more content. I haven't heard of a specific rollout schedule.

If it gets hot crowds they should do a lot of TV tapings in Europe.

2025-03-18 16:23:30 +0000 UTCYeah I'm certain that AEW will do TV in Europe, or at least in the UK, around Forbidden Door, given it won't be in a stadium (as for FD I'm expecting the O2 announcement in the next couple of weeks after WWE have had their shows there).

2025-03-18 16:10:44 +0000 UTCMy guess is they will roll out the content around ppvs like they did revolution. That makes enough sense to me.
