AEW has a busy schedule for fans, but not everything has been announced yet. Although another Grand Slam event was expected this year, no date was confirmed. However, Ticketmaster seemingly leaked the date.
According to a now-deleted Ticketmaster listing, AEW will return to Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York City on Wednesday, September 25. This event will feature a live Dynamite episode and a taping for that week’s Collision. The listing did not specify when tickets would be available, and it has since been removed.
Since 2021, AEW has held its Grand Slam event every September. If the listing is accurate, this will be the first year that Collision is included. In previous years, Rampage was recorded alongside Dynamite at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Arthur Ashe Stadium in Queens also hosts the US Open tennis tournament annually. The 2021 event brought in 20,177 fans, with 13,800 fans the next year. In 2023, the number dropped to just over 11,000 fans. It will be interesting to see how many they can bring in this year.
AEW originally planned to host Forbidden Door at Arthur Ashe Stadium this year, but those plans changed. Instead, the Forbidden Door pay-per-view is happening at UBS Arena in Long Island this Sunday, June 30.
