Summary

Tony Khan said the idea of running an AEW show at SoFi Stadium is not crazy.

He referenced past large-scale events as context, including Wembley Stadium in 2023, which drew over 72,000 fans, and AEW All In 2025 at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, with more than 21,000 in attendance.

Khan also said AEW Revolution was held in Los Angeles at Crypto.com Arena for the previous two years and sold out in 2026 with over 12,000 fans.

He said SoFi is plausible given the star-heavy Revolution card he referenced, and he noted SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California can seat around 70,000.

What the SoFi comments could mean for AEW’s next major event plans

Tony Khan’s comments keep SoFi in the conversation for a future AEW stadium show. The immediate consequence is that this is now framed as a planning concept he has already revisited, not a surprise idea introduced in the room.

If AEW pursues a stadium booking there, the company could build from the same momentum he cited after Revolution, where return-driven card depth already helped create the “interesting” atmosphere for such scale planning.

Quotes

Quote from Tony Khan

You think? You think it’s a good idea? You like the SoFi idea? Could be interesting. It’s interesting. I’ve thought about it before. I think it’s interesting. It’s a very interesting idea. It’s not crazy at all. I don’t think that’s a crazy thought. When you saw all the star power, it gets your brain firing off and it makes you think. There were so many great wrestlers wrestling tonight, so many returns, surprises, the rivals, and moments. It’s not crazy.
