Highest attendance ever this weekend?

By Scott Keith on 5 April 2019

Was there ever another weekend in North American wrestling history with a chance to surpass the attendance of WWE Wrestlemania, ROH/NJPW G1 Supercard, NXT Takeover, Impact/Lucha Underground United We Stand, MLW BattleRiot and all of the other independent shows? Great time to be a fan.

Also, since Charlotte Flair is headlining WM and Ric Flair headlined the highest attended weekend of shows in the world (NJPW in North Korea), the Flair family is the biggest draw in the world. Numbers don’t lie.

Well, WM will do about 78K legit based on the last time they were in "New York".  G1 is a sellout somewhere around 20K I'd imagine, NXT is 18K or so, and there's a shitload of indy shows, so it could be close.
