GCW owner Brett Lauderdale spoke with Game Changer Weekly about several topics, including how their upcoming The People vs. GCW event from the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City has already hit a gate of six figures.
Lauderdale said, “The numbers today, whether one person watches this show on Triller or not, the numbers are, they’re okay. I never talk business or real numbers, but I can tell you, the gate of this show, the ticket sales, I know everybody thinks, ‘Oh, they gave away X amount of tickets,’ there was a couple of tickets given away, but I can tell you that the gate for this show is in six figures, there’s over $100,000 worth of tickets sold, which is more than any independent wrestling show will sell this year, next year, last year, the year before, five years from now, the year after. So will this show be as successful as 2021 from a business standpoint? No because that would be virtually impossible, but I can tell you this is a history-making show in its own right.”
