In 2023, All Elite Wrestling unequivocally demonstrated its position as the second-largest wrestling company globally and its proximity to the top spot by hosting an event in Wembley Stadium. The chosen location for the inaugural AEW All-In event was a location with a maximum capacity of 90,000, and they sure did pack out the rafters.
During the event in England’s capital last year, it was declared that AEW would return in precisely one year to repeat it. Guess what? Nearly one year has elapsed since then, as we prepare for another banger of a show in Great Britain.
Below is a comprehensive overview of the second AEW London event, including all the juicy details we know thus far… Are you ‘All-In’?!
How Can I Watch AEW All-In London 2024?
If you are not fortunate enough to be among the numerous attendees of the second annual AEW All-In event, do not fret. You will have the opportunity to watch it live, just like any other AEW pay-per-view.
For United States residents, you can purchase All In and stream it in real time via B/R Live or TrillerTV. International fans have the option to buy and stream All In via TrillerTV. That is the service formerly known as FiteTV, in case you were unaware.
When is AEW All-In London?
Due to the scheduling of AEW PPVs on Sunday nights, All In cannot occur on the exact same day as it did in 2023. The event will happen over last year’s identical bank holiday weekend, though, ensuring that UK fans will not have to worry about waking up early for work the following day.
Overseas pay-per-view events do require US fans to wake up early. The main card of All In will commence at 6 pm local time in the United Kingdom. This indicates a commencement time of 1 pm Eastern Standard Time (EST) in the United States.
What are the Officially Scheduled Matches for AEW All-In 2024?
A total of seven matchups have been confirmed thus far, one of which may be Bryan Danielson’s retirement fight. Let’s examine the card’s current state and provide instructions for completing the remaining sections.
The current schedule for All In consists of:
- Swerve Strickland (Champion) vs. Bryan Danielson: AEW World Title/Retirement Clause
- Toni Storm (Champion) vs. Mariah May: AEW Women’s World Title Bout
- Jack Perry (Champion) vs. Darby Allin: TNT Championship Bout
- Mercedes Mone (Champion) vs. Dr. Britt Baker DMD: TBS Title Bout
- MJF (Champion) vs. Will Ospreay: AEW American Title Bout
- Casino Gauntlet Match: Winner receives world championship opportunity
- Kris Statlander/Stokely Hathaway vs. Willow Nightingale/Tomohiro Ishii: Pre-show tag team bout
AEW World Title versus Career Match: Strickland vs. Danielson
Naturally, the main event world title bout is the talk of the town ahead of AEW’s return to British soil.
Bryan Danielson has thoroughly enjoyed his time at AEW but explicitly expressed that his career will soon conclude. The main event of All In may perhaps mark the end of The American Dragon’s career. He will either defeat Swerve Strickland to win the AEW Title or choose to retire from professional wrestling.
Danielson has openly said that this will be his last year as a wrestler, and his contractual obligations as a wrestler with AEW have indeed concluded. I really feel that this is the definitive outcome for him. He was given the opportunity to return from retirement and participate in highly anticipated matches in two different businesses, and now he may retire under his own conditions.
However, if I were a betting man (which I am), I’d struggle to look beyond the best sports betting sites offering Danielson as a potential winner. I struggle to envision his retirement happening in the United Kingdom, and if this is one last run for the legend, having a championship throughout this run makes complete sense.
The odds and general consensus on Danielson winning are low, but surely he cannot go out like this… Can he?
What Other Matches Could We See at AEW All-In 2024?
With only seven bouts announced for AEW All-In 2024, we know Tony Khan and co. are cooking a few more surprises. The world tag team and trios championship titles have yet to be announced, and those pieces of gold will likely be placed on this card.
The AEW World Tag Team Championship scene features FTR, Young Bucks, and the Acclaimed. The Bucks will defend their crowns against the Acclaimed on Dynamite. The possibility of FTR being present at the All-In event is high, but whether a three-way match at Wembley with the aforementioned teams is possible.
The AEW World Trios Championship may also involve a three-way competition. Christian Cage demonstrated his cunning and skillful tactics as the special referee, resulting in a deadlock with the House of Black and the Bang Bang Gang receiving a ten-count draw. This match determined the top candidate for the championship title. The Patriarchy was scheduled to compete against the victors in the All-In event. Given the absence of any victors, Christian likely assumes he will be granted the evening free from obligations. I have reservations about the likelihood of boss Tony Khan approving this, particularly due to Christian’s overt interference in the outcome.
Right now, we can only speculate on the other potential matches at AEW All-In, but with the line-up announced so far, we’re in for one hell of a night in the capital!
