AEW Dynamite [Newark, NJ] update (tons of updates, hard cam open now)
Added 2022-01-04 23:06:22 +0000 UTC7:05PM update: So much for the map stabilizing. The hard cam section (119) has opened up 160 new seats ($95) since the last update (we'll see if they stick - I just noticed they're gone again but they could come back in a few minutes):
Available Tickets => 1,880
Current Setup/Capacity => 9,423
Tickets Distributed => 7,543 (80.0%)

6:06PM update:
AEW Presents Dynamite/Rampage
Wed • Jan 05 • 7:00 PM
Prudential Center, Newark, NJ
Available Tickets => 1,744
Current Setup/Capacity => 9,263
Tickets Distributed => 7,519 (81.2%)
This has been a very busy ticket map and I waited until it stabilized before posting an update. 6 sections were taken away today. Sections 101-105 had some tickets sold so I'm not sure if those people will be moved. Pictures will help - if they are empty, then those purchased tickets were moved. Section 214 did not sell many (if any at all) so that was taken off the board. I'm sure they want as much of the lower bowl sold as possible. They've been adding random seats to sections 5-10 (all accounted for already). No idea why they are releasing so many of those late (usually it's more on the hard cam side). They did also release more on the hard cam side in section 18 and 21 filled out as well. So to sum it up - my estimate has been generous up until this point. That can happen when sections aren't opened in full. But the good news is, there's not a lot more left to open up that I have already accounted for so the estimate is close.
Price range is $34 to $130 - slightly higher than the previous Newark show.
Speaking of the last show:
AEW announced 13,191. Paid was 11,612, $555,595. My estimate had 12,643 there (Suite numbers not included in mine).
One other note, anecdotally I've had a dozen people tell me they've either sold their ticket or are not going (when they usually would) because of the Omicron surge. I think it's fair to say all upcoming and recent shows will have some of that.

Comments
Really interested why so many were missing in the original onsale from the lower bowl, never seen an AEW map quite like it. Maybe it helped them to project a higher original sale number?
