Sometimes we see wrestling promotions going to the same venues year after year for major events. AEW is no different.
Speaking to News 12 Long Island, Tony Khan would speak about the return of AEW Grand Slam to Arthur Ashe Stadium:
“Yes, I expect we’ll be back to have Grand Slam, AEW Grand Slam, Dynamite and Rampage, back in Queens at Arthur Ashe Stadium again. It was a huge success to everyone involved and it’s all thanks to this great partnership with the USTA. They were so kind and I think it resulted in a big partnership.”

Tony spoke about the possibility of breaking AEW’s highest gate record:
It was almost the first million dollar gate in AEW history, just came shy of that, but it was real close and of course we set that record now, for AEW Double or Nothing Las Vegas, became our first million dollar gate for live tickets, and now just hit it again for our partnership with New Japan, for our Forbidden Door show at the United Center.”

Khan finally committed to returning to Arthur Ashe Stadium again:
“So, we will be back, and it will be hopefully another huge success going back to Queens for AEW Grand Slam, Dynamite and Rampage, later this year, in 2022 again.”
