Kenny Omega recently spoke about the difference between AEW and WWE, and his comments caught attention quickly.
He focused on ticket prices and talked about the overall fan experience at shows. His message was simple: AEW wants to stay affordable and fun. Many fans have complained about high ticket prices. Some reports even suggested fewer tickets sold for WrestleMania this year. Pricing became a big talking point. Omega clearly noticed that trend.
Kenny Omega says AEW offers better value for fans
Speaking with CBC News Manitoba, Omega praised AEW’s approach. He explained that the company focuses on giving fans more for less. He said, “We’re sort of like the alternative, we’re not quite WWE and we’re not an indie either, we’re just AEW.”
He added that fans get a lot of value for their money. “What we try to be is the most fun live show that you can watch available to you. I do think that for family friendly shows — mostly family friendly — ticket prices are absolutely friendly. We never skimp on the content, you’ll always get a ton of wrestling for your money value.”
He continued, “You are getting a whole heck of a lot of AEW and you’re not having to mortgage your first house or sell off your first child. That’s not even a knock on any of the other promotions or anything. If you want to check out a television product and see yourself on TV and have fun and see what makes AEW so special, you can do it and you can do it at an affordable price.”
“I’m just really glad that if there’s any interest whatsoever, whether it be because you’re a diehard AEW fan or you just want to go out and check out a night of wrestling or something fun with the family or friends, I’m glad that there is price point options available for all walks of life. That’s one thing I’m very proud of with AEW.” [H/T: Fightful]
