On Wednesday, AEW officially confirmed that All In: Texas will begin at 3 p.m. ET / 2 p.m. local time on Saturday, July 12th, 2025. The event, set to take place at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, was originally expected to air during prime time but has been moved to the afternoon to avoid going head-to-head with WWE’s Saturday Night’s Main Event scheduled for later that evening.
In addition, AEW announced that the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, Texas, will host live episodes of Dynamite on Wednesday, July 9, and Collision on Thursday, July 10, leading into what is expected to be AEW’s biggest show of the year.
Speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that while a final time block for the All In pay-per-view hasn’t been locked in, the event is widely expected to exceed four hours. “There’s a couple of things,” Meltzer said. “One of them is that they can go longer at three o’clock. The WWE show would start at eight o’clock Eastern… because this is a big show, they have not locked in how long they’re going to go, but I do know that it’s being considered to go over four hours.”
Meltzer elaborated that AEW is looking to stack All In with marquee matches, including a possible Kenny Omega vs. Kazuchika Okada clash, a World Championship defense against the Owen Hart Tournament winner, and a major Women’s Title bout between Toni Storm and a likely challenger in Mercedes Moné.
He also pointed out that an earlier start time could be beneficial for international audiences. “It’s also advantageous, as far as for the UK and Europe, in the sense that the pay-per-view is not starting at 1 a.m. like it normally does,” he added.
With a stacked card and extended runtime expected, All In: Texas is shaping up to be one of AEW’s most ambitious shows yet.
