AEW Grand Slam: Fans Love Arthur Ashe Stadium’s Setup

All Elite Wrestling made its New York City debut on Wednesday night by selling out Arthur Ashe Stadium in Queens for the AEW Grand Slam event. The show marks the first time a wrestling event has taken place in the iconic tennis venue (used annually for the US Open tournament), and the venue’s unique setup not only gave AEW Dynamite a different feel but it ensured there wasn’t a bad seat in the house for fans in attendance.ย
