wrestletalk.com/news/tickets-for-aew-tv-debut-on-tnt-are-absolutely-tanking/ >All Elite Wrestling’s debut show on TNT will take place on October 2nd, 2019. The show will emanate from the Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C. >Tickets went on sale earlier this month and sold out within hours, as revealed by Executive Vice President Cody. >Per Rhodes tweet. "SOLD OUT
Thank you all so very much.
(Do not give up hope on being there live though, we should be lifting potential camera/production holds as we get closer to the event. Keep checking at AEWTIX.com )" >However, according to Dave Meltzer on the latest Wrestling Observer Radio, tickets for the debut show are “absolutely tanking” in the secondary market: >“Now the scalpers were ready like crazy for these TV tapings. The percentage of these tickets for all three of the shows for DC, Boston, and Philadelphia — a lot of scalper tickets. As far as Boston, they’re getting triple face value so Boston is a very successful market after they hoarded those tickets.” >“Philadelphia is very successful, it’s above — but, not anything triple or anything like that. DC is absolutely tanking. There’s 4,700 secondary tickets out there and they are — the price is so low if you didn’t get tickets for the first AEW taping then there are tickets out there for $8. For a show that legitimately sold out immediately, the idea that the secondary market hit that, you know the scalpers just completely bought that one out and when too many do it causes a flood and there’s a flood on that one.” Its going to be a beautiful octobet boys
Man dave is really trying hard on this damage control

>scalpers buy out all the shit >people not willing to pay scalper price >scalpers forced to lower their prices So, fuck scalpers? What's wrong with this?
it was masking the lack of demand as the 2 shows they just put on sale are still not sold out without scalpers in there to buy in bulk
Adam Cruz
The fact that the demand isn't actually there and that they will have to tarp the fuck up
Austin Carter
>For a show that legitimately sold out immediately Dave is such a shit writer, but how the hell can a show legitmately sell out if you're then stating that scalpers got all tickets and are trying to sell them for as low as $8. Isnt it obvious the scalpers sold out the show and so it's not a legit sell out?

The demand IS there. AEW have been spamming Twitter with "sold out" for days, everybody who was going to buy thinks its sold out so they aren't looking at the secondary market
John Lopez
>the demand is there >it's just not there Holy mother of cope
Jason Campbell
>The demand is there Youre basing this on scalpers buying all the tickets. >everybody who was going to buy thinks its sold out so they aren't looking at the secondary market How does this make sense? People really want a ticket but because Twitter says it is sold out they stop trying to get a ticket they really want? Fucking cope you brainlet
Jack Davis
>the demand is there nobody's just demanding it based retard
Brandon Gonzalez
>everybody who was going to buy thinks its sold out so they aren't looking at the secondary market
the scalper tickets are literally listed on ticketmaster
>implying people that want to go won't just buy them on the day off when scalpers will lower the prices it's like half this board never went to an event of any kind.
Unironically this is an anti AEW, Cody, Cucks, Omemega and tranny board. Its not the boards fault you think that because other redditors such as yourself post favorably about them. The vast majority of the board actively wants to see this shit fail spectacularly

Do you not know of the secondary market? Are you that stupid that you honestly believe the only place to buy tickets is ticketmaster and the event itself?
Samuel Jones
>it's already sold out you dense motherfucker. To scalpers you twat. They brought them thinking people would really want them and make a profit. now theyre going for $8 the same price as a row with your mother

dizzamn........... didn't see thst one copming................
So many retards in the wrestling community. I cant believe in 2019 you have to explain to people what a secondary market is....
Samuel Thompson
The moment its announced as sold out most people wont go to the secondary market at least not until the event is very close. How ignorant are people in 2019?..
Carson Butler
Its 2019, the retards wrestling fans just discovered that on a secondary market the prices can fluctuate significantly. Wrestling fans are actually fat slub no life who only knows about wrasslin
Evan Fisher
>Expecting seats to get lower than 8 dollars
Ethan Walker
>Having to make a second thread about this clickbait article that completely misses the point of what is going to happen to those tickets the closer the debut show gets. The is some prime COPE if I've ever seen it.
Isaac Rivera
Its sold out Scalpers bought ...... This hurts to read. Its sold out no matter who bought it, a show is sold out when the Official provider doesnt have anymore ticket. The official provider ( aew ) doesnt have any tickets to offer anymore. The secondary market has nothing to do with this, the amount of retardation in the community is outstanding.
Juan Barnes
I dont know why anyones bothering with this dickless clueless tranny
Leo Morris
Here is what is going to happen; As the show draws closer and closers, scalpers will be forced to drop their asking price to original cost price or lower, whatever price they have to in order to shift the tickets they have left. No scalper ever holds on to tickets unless they absolutely cannot move them at all, so they will be forced to eat the loss. When they start lowering asking price, the tickets will sell. AEW will have a full house on that night with many fans getting in for below original cost price thanks to greedy idiot scalpers pushing their luck too far.
Anthony Hernandez
So you';re saying that the true market value of the seats is if they're sub $8? That's your fucking argument? You cant spin this one you fucking brainlet.
Kevin Allen
>The secondary market has nothing to do with this The whole article is about the secondary market you faggot. If you had reading comprehension above a 4th grade level youd see that. If the majority of tickets were bought by scalpers that means fans dont have them yet. And if scalpers are marking down their tickets to $8 that means fans dont want them. Unless you think scalping is a way for poor faggot losers to get tickets which means that is the prime AEW demographic. Im guessing you have 10 tickets now
Ethan Lee
>tickets at $8 >When they start lowering the asking price AEW math
