Bullet Club members Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks are looking to self-finance a show to take place in a 10,000 seat arena. Cody has mentioned headlining a show with 10,000 people as a personal goal of his since leaving WWE.
We can't comment officially until we confirm the location, but we are far enough in the process to say it's happening. In 2018. And we are swinging for the damn fences…

Cody had hinted last week that “the Elite” were scouting possible locations:

Typical Attendance Figures in the United States
While independent wrestling is as hot as its ever been, they will have their work cut out for them to fill a 10,000 seat arena. Ring of Honor shows typically draw a few thousand fans depending on the building.
NJPW’s G1 special in the United States drew 2,300 fans, though some complained they should have run a larger building.
For Cody and the Young Bucks to be successful, they will have to eclipse recent independent wrestling attendance figures. If their show is built-up as a can’t miss spectacle that fans will travel to see, however, they might do exactly that.
