AEW President Tony Khan announces major milestone for ticket sales ahead of All Out 2022
AEW President Tony Khan recently took to social media to announce a massive breakthrough in ticket sales for All Out 2022.
The upcoming annual Labor Day weekend pay-per-view event will be its fourth installment. It will emanate at the NOW Arena in the Chicago suburb of Hoffman Estates, Illinois, for the third time in the last four years.
Taking to Twitter, Khan revealed that the live ticket sales for tomorrow's spectacle have surpassed $1 million. This was the third straight pay-per-view that his company reached the one million mark in the gate, with Double Or Nothing and Forbidden Door being the other two.
Check out Khan's tweet below:
TOMORROW’s #AEWAllOut has just passed $1 million in live ticket sales!
3 straight @AEW PPVs with
$1 million+ live gates
on top of
14 straight Wednesdays in cable’s top 2 shows in 18-49 demo &
back-to-back 1 million+ total viewers for #AEWDynamite
See you SOON on ppv at ALL OUT
As Khan's tweet indicated, AEW Dynamite had back-to-back ratings of one million and above recently. The August 24 episode garnered 1,049,000 viewers, while last week's edition had a slight decrease but still recorded a 1,020,000 audience.
The key-demo rating for Wednesday's show is averaging in the top two shows on cable over the last 14 episodes. It will be interesting to see if tomorrow's event will justify all the breakthroughs in ticket sales and ratings.
