Good news for Louisville wrestling fans
Added 2023-07-07 23:26:43 +0000 UTCAEW is coming to Louisville, or at least that's the plan.
Fightful Select has confirmed that AEW is planning to make their Louisville, Kentucky debut on November 1 for AEW Dynamite. The company has registered an event for the date, and it's currently on the Kentucky Boxing & Wrestling Commission calendar.
The show is currently listed for the KFC Yum Center, which is where WWE has traditionally ran. Unfortunately, it is the home of the Louisville Cardinals basketball team, but I'm sure the show won't be terrible just because of that.
Fightful will be on the scene covering that show, as well as other local shows including Lexington in August and Cincinnati in September.

And we’ll happily go there, but I will be convinced that Diddle in Bowling Green or the CFSB Center at Murray State would work great for them (at least at current crowd numbers) until I see otherwise.
2023-07-12 15:29:11 +0000 UTCUnfortunately, there isn’t really a large arena in the area. Best you can maybe hope for is likely a show in Evansville at the Ford Center.

2023-07-12 15:04:15 +0000 UTCI don’t know, man. I’m gonna probably be at all of them, but the seating map for Lexington isn’t looking good. I hope I’m wrong about over saturation (hard to believe, after so long with nothing, that it might actually be a problem), but we’ll have to see how Cincy and Yum Center look when they finally get announced.

2023-07-10 00:17:53 +0000 UTCPossibly, but I attended that Final Four in Atlanta and witnessed it happen with my own eyes AND I purchased a piece of the floor the game was played on from the NCAA online shop that says it's the it's from the Championship game. So if the NCAA wants to reimburse me for that piece of the floor, my travel expenses, and the cost of the ticket, maybe I'll consider taking them seriously. Plus, none of those strippers played in the game, so they couldn't have helped ;)

2023-07-09 03:25:15 +0000 UTCAwesome for Kentucky, but I will actually cry tears of joy if they ever realize there’s a western side of the state.
2023-07-08 20:48:24 +0000 UTCThe record books say otherwise. UCF made National Championship rings for football a couple of years ago, that doesn’t mean they actually were. lol

2023-07-08 18:30:37 +0000 UTCReally bad for them to book 3 shows that close together in that short of a time span. As a Kentuckian, glad to have the opportunity, but I fear that the ticket sales for Lexington, Cincinnati, and Louisville will all suffer from over saturation.
