WWE Hall of Famer and former WCW President Eric Bischoff recently took to his 83 Weeks podcast, where he discussed a number of topics such as how he thinks AEW is going to do extremely well on their show at Wembley Stadium because it is bigger than wrestling and it has now become a cultural event.

Eric Bischoff said:

“I think AEW is gonna do extremely well. They’ve been hearing about AEW for four years … getting bits and pieces of it however they get it, but now having that show come to Wembley … it’s going to be an event. It’s bigger than wrestling. It’s a cultural event and I suspect it’s going to do extremely well.”

Eric Bischoff also discussed how the real benefit for AEW in holding a show at Wembley Stadium is its tremendous growth in their international television distribution.

Eric Bischoff said:

“I think what you’re going to see downstream is tremendous growth in their international television distribution and that’s where the real benefit is gonna be.”
