“I think that the global successes of 2023, especially our historic ticket sales record set at AEW: All In London at Wembley Stadium and our foray into Canada where we saw incredible moments such as AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door in Toronto and the crowning of the second Owen Hart Foundation Tournament winners in Calgary, helped make this a banner year for AEW,” said Tony Khan, president of All-Elite Wrestling, in a release.

“We’re in a great position going into 2024, and I can’t wait to plant AEW’s flag in four new markets across Canada, and revisit some of the amazing cities we debuted in last summer. Everyone at AEW is proud to continue paying homage to Canada’s rich wrestling heritage, and serving the great Canadian fans with massive shows across the country in the new year.”
