According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Punk was not on this week’s AEW television shows because he is busy shooting his scenes for Stephen Amell’s Heel’s second season.

2. Brock Lesnar bleeding

According to WON Brock, Lesnar didn’t bleed at Madison Square Garden a couple of weeks back. However, it has now been confirmed that he was busted open the hard way during his beatdown at the hands of The Bloodline.

So it was pretty clear that WWE is still very much against Blood and will continue to do so.

3. AEW console game to have a story mode

4. AEW’s upcoming Double or Nothing PPV to create history!

According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter, AEW’s upcoming Double or Nothing PPV isn’t quite sold out yet, but still, 12939 tickets have been sold for Las Vegas T-Mobile Arena, which rounds up a cost of $1,145,000.

It can undoubtedly become the highest-grossing North American non-WWE pro wrestling show in history by going at this rate. 

5. WWE to open more seats 

According to Wrestling Observer Newsletter, NXT Stand & Delivery was set up for 5059 fans. Still, the early ticket sales indicate that WWE will easily pass that number and probably open more seats.

WrestleMania 38 still has more than 20,000 tickets outstanding for both nights, and WWE will definitely move more of those, but the sellout will remain high.
