WWE and AEW have once again secured state support through tax incentives for their upcoming productions in Ohio.
Cleveland.com reports that the Ohio Department of Development recently approved $46 million in tax credits spread across 27 projects statewide. Both WWE and All Elite Wrestling were among those to benefit.
For the 2025–2026 production cycle, AEW received $2,134,560 in tax credits, while WWE was allocated $1,096,941. In the current 2024–2025 cycle, AEW was awarded $1.275 million, and WWE received $1.7 million.
The investments come at a time when both promotions are set for major events in the state.
On August 24, WWE NXT Heatwave will run opposite AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door, and on September 20, WWE Wrestlepalooza and AEW All Out will go head-to-head.
