Hi Sean, do you think we see AEW do a European or Mexican tour in 2026?
The first time AEW went to Europe, they wanted All In to be the only show where you could see the company. The second time around, they also ran Wales. The third time around, they have a huge star from the area, and are only expanding, so I could see them adding dates. I don't expect a big Mexican tour unless it's just co promoted.
How are talent paid for WWE UNREAL? Are they?
The ones we spoke to said that they weren't paid for it. They weren't complaining, but they just said they weren't paid extra.
Any idea on just how many WWE employees would be at an event like Summerslam - from the people who build the stage to the catering crew? Are we talking about several hundred?
It's hundreds. From production, to security, producers, some of the writers, referees, and people who work in the production truck. It's a massive effort, and even more so on big PLE shows.

In regards to payment for shows like Unreal, are those things (documentary types and the like) worked into their contracts now?
