AEW is slated to bring Blood & Guts to fans on May 5th. Tickets went on sale yesterday for the Daily’s Place event and fans showed up in droves. They might even sell out the show.

During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer discussed AEW’s Blood & Guts event and how well tickets have sold. The company has a max of 2,500 tickets for the event, but they didn’t put them all up for sale yesterday. That didn’t stop a ton of fans from buying seats for the show.
“They had a good first day. Tickets went on sale today. I don’t know the number, because I haven’t heard how many they put on sale. I know 2,500 will be the max, but they put a number on sale, around 1,500, could be 100 more or less. They had, as of two hours after they put the tickets on sale they had, 354 tickets left, so I mean it was over 1,000 sold. It might be 1,200. As far as first-day sales they are at the level they would be for a pay-per-view. So, it’s good.”
It’s unknown if AEW will be able to bring in 2,500 fans. They already have enough tickets sold that Blood & Guts will be an event where fans at home will certainly be able to hear the live fans cheer.
It was also said that Blood & Guts will likely be the largest AEW event in terms of live fans since the pandemic started.
Blood & Guts is also slated to be the only match during their special May 5th episode of AEW Dynamite. That match will likely be a long one as AEW debuts this new concept that’s been holding for well over a year now.
