Tony Khan highlights the heights that AEW reached in 2024.
AEW had a remarkable year in 2024; the company held AEW All In at Wembley Stadium for the second year in a row and later signed a new media rights deal with Warner Bros. Discovery. Still, the company remains the target of plenty of negativity, especially on social media.

“Last year, we made a lot of history going to Wembley Stadium; we sold 81,035 tickets. Over 81,000 tickets sold — we set the world record for tickets sold — and even then people tried to poke holes in what we did last year…allegedly people said 73,000, but we sold 81,000. But the fact that people would even try to hold up 73,000, even if it was that, like it would be a bad thing. That’s amazing, what an amazing achievement,” Khan said. “Then this year to make a historic media rights deal which really sets the stage for…all the great things that are going to be coming.”
AEW will begin a new era with AEW Dynamite: Fight for the Fallen on January 1,as it will be the company’s first simulcast on Max.
