AEW clearly banked on Worlds End to cap off the year on a high note, and the strategy paid off. Fans and critics alike have praised the event, cementing AEW’s reputation as a major force in the wrestling industry.
This milestone shows AEW’s continued rise in the wrestling world, proving it can go head-to-head with the biggest companies. With blockbuster events like All In and Full Gear already setting a strong foundation, Worlds End positions AEW for an even bigger 2025, leaving fans eager to see what’s next.
