Empty sections in pro wrestling is nothing new. They could book smaller venues, but it might lose some appeal. WWE has tarped off sections in the past, but that doesn’t seem to be AEW’s style. They just don’t shoot the empty sections.
Shots of the crowd at AEW Dynamite in Corpus Christie show plenty of open seats.
They obviously placed the crowd strategically so they’d be seen on camera, but these pictures below definitely show it wasn’t a sell out this week.
AEW Dynamite might have a few empty sections, but they are drawing on average about what WWE did for SmackDown when the blue brand was on Tuesdays.
