Anyone out there opened this and done anything fun with it so far? I have always liked the idea of a ring in between the standard spring ring size and the Authentic Scale size. I don't really have the space for Authentic Scale rings but I like this one for a few reasons, one being the size and another being it's built in a way that it doesn't have the ridiculous turnbuckles and all that that the current WWE product is going for.
This is definitely larger than the spring rings, right? If so, has anyone done any customizing of this ring? Let me know what you think of it!

I left mine blank but it’s great
Bigger than the Mattel but smaller than the ASR
Pretty much perfect maybe would like an inch or two bigger

The Mattel basic rings are 13x13 and AEW is 14x14 so not a huge difference but it’s noticeable
I’d like to see a 15 or 16 inch ring, that would probably be my perfect ring

I just wish they'd make the real scale rings actually scaled. No ring is 22x22 lol. That WM ring size thing is false.

WWE rings are at the high end for wrestling, 20x20. AEW follows suit there, but most companies use a slightly smaller one, around 18x18. And then in Madagascar they have the two-sided rings, those are about 16x~.

If you have photos of your setups using this ring, modded or unmodded, post them here! I'd love to see.

In the process of moving into a new house right now, and planning to get one of these for my display room setup.

Is this the $20 ring? If so, I impulse bought one last year, and I've already had to stash it away. My AEW collection got out of hand, outgrew it really quickly, then I bought a new shelf that couldn't accommodate the size. I'd sell it, but it would be a pain in the ass to ship, LOL

Unfortunately most of the links from anything close to an official source are from 2019 in the lead-up to Dynamite's debut, so I don't know if that stayed true once they launched.

I'm not as familiar with AEW but 20x20 is prob right. 18x18 is the standard of most indies (used to be 16x16 in early 2000s) Anyways, not sure why toy companies use 22x22 for scaled rings. People here said that was Wrestlemania's ring size which is a weird and false rumor. They wouldn't disorient all thier boys by having them work a bigger ring than they train in for the biggest show of the year lol.

I thought I’ve read that they use the same size as an NJPW ring. Not sure if accurate or what that size is.
