All Elite Wrestling taped tonight’s episode of AEW Collision (along with Battle Of The Belts XII, which will air right after Collision) on Thursday at the Adventist Health Arena in Stockton, California.
Although the venue can hold up to 12,000 people, the setup for the show was arranged for just 2,614 tickets, with 2,285 of those being sold, according to WrestleTix. Images have emerged from the event showing a large number of empty seats, particularly noticeable during Ricochet’s segment.

These visuals have sparked criticism, with some fans questioning AEW’s choice to book larger arenas that highlight gaps in audience attendance. While the company is facing challenges with filling seats, there is still optimism that AEW will regain its footing and return to its earlier successes.
