Folks take this shit too serious sometimes...wrestling fans man.
What do you expect tho? They were marketing it as the biggest show ever and the promo was "We're gonna break the record" which I thought was genius marketing. Once it was said that it broke the Mania record they ran with it extra hard. And I aint mad at it cause I woulda done the same. It was seen as a major accomplishment.

Suddenly we get these new numbers and what are we supposed to do with this information other than call it what it is. 73K is still massively impressive especially for a card that on paper wasnt really exciting. I just think that TK is gonna do what Vince does and still market it as 82K

Couple shout outs here.

Shout out to Toni Storm. From catching cream pies to the face and crying on Smackdown to being a two-time champion and performing in front of the biggest paid attendance wrestling crowd in history

Shout out to Samoa Joe. From being put on commentary and being released twice within the span of a year to wrestling for the "Real" AEW championship in front of the biggest paid attendance wrestling crowd in history.

Shout out to Saraya. From being told that she would never wrestle again, to winning the championship in front of her home crowd in front of the biggest paid attendance wrestling crowd in history

Shout out to FTR. From having back shaving segments to putting on a banger in front of the biggest paid attendance wrestling crowd in history.

Most of all shout out to the Elite. From being told they would never sell out the first All In, to being told they wouldn't create their own promotion, to being told they'd never get a TV deal...or another one, or another one after that, to being told they would barely do 40000 at wembley, to now being apart of the biggest attended wrestling event in history. Haters have literally doubted these dudes EVERY step of the way. And in the end they’ve said to the doubters

Oh and shout out to Swerve. From getting fired after his first week on the main roster to having bangers with Sting in front of the biggest wrestling audience ever. Big pressure I apply


Oh and shout out to Hip-Hop!

Fwiw, the pitch tickets and lower area seats were completely full. It was the upper seats that were kinda empty. Won't be surprised if resellers weren't making anything off those at all.
 
Additionally, they were very specific about the wording when it comes to that show. They always said "paid attendance" and any ticket sold will always count towards it. Even when Nigel announced the figures it was the same thing. They didn't wanna get caught in a WWE level lie lmao.

Nigga cant find his own battles so he tryin to latch onto someone else
I dont blame you bro you still aint beaten them ghost writer allegations
 
Wrestlemania 3 had more. Meltzer underreported the attendance figures and people have ran with it.

So they were celebrating something that was already outdone by an event from nearly 40 years ago.
