AEW All In: Texas Attendance and Funding Figures Revealed – Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics has published a detailed analysis on AEW All In: Texas, shedding light on the official attendance figures and the state funding that went into the event held at Globe Life Field in Arlington earlier this year.

According to the report, AEW All In: Texas recorded an actual attendance of 23,759, with 21,973 fans having their tickets scanned upon entry. This makes it one of AEW’s largest domestic shows of 2025, but still below initial projections.

The Texas Governor’s Office reportedly approved just over $1 million in public funding to assist with event costs, based on early estimates of 32,500 to 33,490 spectators. However, since the event fell short of those numbers, the actual reimbursement amount is expected to be closer to $700,000.

Despite missing the projected attendance, local officials have spoken positively about AEW’s impact. Arlington City Manager Trey Yelverton stated that the city was pleased with the turnout and appreciative of AEW’s efforts to attract fans from outside Texas. Government records indicate that 6,258 attendees traveled from out of state, reflecting AEW’s strong drawing power among traveling wrestling fans.

Interestingly, there were also additional events planned for the same weekend that never came to fruition. These included potential collaborations with New Japan Pro Wrestling, CMLL, and a joint concert featuring Chris Jericho’s band Fozzy and AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland.

While AEW All In: Texas didn’t reach its initial attendance goal, the event still generated a notable tourism boost and cemented AEW’s growing relationship with the city of Arlington as a host for major wrestling events.
