Since its inception, All Elite Wrestling has been running wild all over the wrestling business. The product which AEW puts out is more savage, direct, and unapologetic, which attracts the audience more.
The United Kingdom is an enormous market for pro wrestling. Many big Superstars are now starting to come out of the country, and even WWE has been aiming for the UK market for a long time. They even started an NXT show specifically for the UK and were planning to do a UK specific PPV.

However, it is now going to be a tough market to conquer, as AEW has already made a good start there. Cody Rhodes took to Twitter to share a marvelous record that the company has broken.
One staggering fact that came out is that Dynamite’s audience is over five times that of NXT. The AEW weekly show is also double that of SmackDown, and almost double of RAW.
This is some really positive/staggering data & research about our friends across the pond!@ITV / @AEW 🇬🇧🇺🇸
Thanks to our incredible fans for such a successful first year of #AEWDynamite
