AEW has celebrated reaching a new milestone as their YouTube channel has reached a massive 1 billion views.
Since being created in 2019, AEW has created hundreds of memorable moments and many of these can be seen on the company’s YouTube channel.
As well as clips and matches, the channel also features weekly episodes of Dark and Dark: Elevation which show matches not seen on Dynamite or Rampage.
On February 11th, AEW thanked fans for helping them reach 1 billion views on the channel which also has over 3 million subscribers.
