Due to the on-going COVID-19 pandemic, AEW has yet to host any shows on the West Coast. Now that mandates are beginning to be lifted and the world returns to a semblance of normalcy, a tour of the West Coast seems inevitable.
In a recent interview with Sporting News’ Karisa Maxwell, AEW President and CEO Tony Khan alluded that shows on the West Coast may be happening sooner than later.
“I would love to bring AEW out to the West Coast and I’m excited to say that we are coming back to the West Coast, So I think it could be very soon. This summer. AEW is slated to return to Las Vegas where it all began for us. The first AEW show was Double or Nothing in Las Vegas. We’ll be back Memorial Day weekend in Las Vegas again. So, I think fans can look forward to that — our next pay per view, of course, is Revolution in Orlando, and then we’ve got Double or Nothing’s the pay per view after that. It’s Memorial Day weekend. So it’s every quarter, we have a huge event but after Double or Nothing, I think we can look forward to maybe [having] AEW out here, who knows?”
It was announced that the Double or Nothing Pay-Per-View in Las Vegas will feature the finals of both the men’s and women’s Owen Hart Memorial Tournaments.
