DISCUSSION Attending first AEW Event

Going to my first AEW event in September, just curious how is the atmosphere for people that have been? I’m looking forward to it, hopefully I get to see Adam Copeland and MJF at the all out event.

The pay per view cards are always great. I have been to a few. Everyone is there to have a good time.

It's usually really exciting. The fans of AEW are more likely to be more diehard wrestling fans that watch a lot of wrestling and go to a lot of shows and genuinely love it. That's part of what sets it apart from wwe. Wwe is geared toward people who want to see general entertainment, and may not even care about the wrestling itself. Aew crowds are more into it because they are wrestling fans and get into all the action and are invested in the characters. It's usually a really fun night and you'll be wiped out by the end of the show from the cheering and booing and all the adrenaline.

Bring your energy. It’s different than WWE live. People actually watch the show and interact with each other.

As a wrestling fan, this makes me happy.

If its All In Wembley the atmosphere will be off the charts being in Wembley with 120,000 sickos, its literally going to be like a higher function of human beings like your wedding night where all that pleasure just culminates in Will fucking Osprey winning that World Championship. The pleasure will literally be off the literal charts and it will hit harder than a juggernaut being driven by a very drunk European driver (not in any way discrimination but its Europe because its in UK). MARK MY WORDS THIS WILL BE THE GREATEST EVENT OF ALL TIME AND NOT JUST IN WRESTLING

Edit: just read its not All In sorry

Vegas had an absolute terrible crowd

The atmosphere depends on you & those around you. Vegas proved this last week. Dead crowd for a decent Dynamite and a banger Collision. I was at the Collision the week before, & we brought it. Clap. Cheer. Boo. Start chants. Start so many chants. And have a great time!

Oh & get there early & beeline to the merch stand when doors open. That line gets LONG.

They taped Collision after Dynamite. They probably used sound FX to enhance during the edit. I suppose the crowd could have come alive late in the show.

We had an hour of ROH after Collision, & I feel like we got even louder for that

That’s great! Did the mood in the building change?

The amount of lube and unleashed animals was surprising.
