WWE and AEW are two of the biggest wrestling promotions in the world. This often leads to some healthy competition which wrestling fans love to see. Like the Tuesday Night War, which was comfortably won by the WWE camp, courtesy of the appearance of legends like The Undertaker and John Cena. But come August 2024, WWE and AEW are set to clash once again.
This will also be their first-ever battle on the continent of Europe.

WWE just announced its first-ever PLE in Germany on the continent of Europe. The PLE is called Bash In Berlin and it will be taking place on the 31st of August 2024.
Just a week prior to that, AEW will also be having its annual PLE All In, which will again take place in London on the 25th of August. AEW will definitely win the numbers game here as All In will again be taking place at Wembley Stadium, where AEW broke pro wrestling attendance records with a crowd of 81,035.

On the other hand, WWE’s Bash In Berlin will be taking place at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Berlin. Sadly, the capacity of this arena is only 17,000. So AEW will be the clear winner over here even if All In manages to sell even 1/4th of the total tickets.
As far as the ratings are concerned, that will be a fair battle. WWE has never held a PLE in Germany, so it will be interesting to see the kind of reception it receives from its Deutsch fans. On the other hand, British fans have already shown how crazy they are for wrestling by coming up in huge numbers for All-In this year. Will WWE’s Bash In Berlin win the ratings war against AEW’s All In? Only time will tell.
In the meantime, Tony Khan has announced that he has a special gift for Sting that will be announced on Dynamite tonight.
