2) - AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam will break the company's attendance records
It has been a whirlwind month for AEW, with major events and debuts that have given the company tons of much momentum. This wave all kicked off with the first episode of AEW Rampage in Pittsburgh that saw Christian Cage win the IMPACT World Championship and Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. retain her Women's World Championship.
The following week, AEW Rampage: The First Dance featured with CM Punk's long-awaited return to wrestling at Chicago's United Center. His debut produced one of the biggest reactions to a return in wrestling history, and it felt like a ground-breaking moment for All Elite Wrestling. The company followed up with two more major debuts at All Out 2021 in Chicago two weeks ago.

At All Out 2021, fans got to see Punk's in-ring return against Darby Allin, Minoru Suzuki's unexpected arrival, and three huge debuts. Ruby Soho won the Women's Casino Battle Royale in her debut, so she earned a shot at the Women's World Championship. The company then pulled a double whammy at the end of the show with the stunning debuts of Adam Cole and Bryan Danielson.
These events have led to AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam, which will mark the largest gate and most attended event in All Elite Wrestling history. Nearly 20,000 fans will be in attendance for the company's biggest television event. It should be a truly incredible night for the promotion.
