  • Bryan Danielson Wishes To ‘Disappear’ After Wrestling Retirement

    Bryan Danielson Wishes To ‘Disappear’ After Wrestling Retirement

    Bryan Danielson wants to move away from the spotlight after he has retired from wrestling.

    The 43-year-old will be putting his career on the line when he challenges Swerve Strickland for the AEW World Title at Sunday’s All In event. Bryan has previously revealed that his contract with the company has already expired, so there is a lot of chatter about what he plans to do after the show.

    Tony Khan has stated multiple times that he would love for Danielson to stick around in whatever role he sees fit. For someone as knowledgeable as the wrestling veteran, there are a lot of career opportunities even if he chooses to never wrestle again.

    During a recent interview with TMZ Sports, fellow WWE alumni Dean Muhtadi asked the AEW star about his plans after his retirement. Bryan explained that a lot of options have been presented to him, but he isn’t interested in any of them:

    “So I don’t know. I’ve had people want me to do lots of things and I don’t really want to do any of them. I’d really like to just disappear. At least from the public eye.

    What I’d really like to do is help with the community, help with…like be involved in my kids’ lives. As far as like my wife got to coach our son’s t-ball team last year, I’d love to be able to do that this year. Those sorts of things. Those are the kind of things that I’m putting focus and priority on.

    I’d Like To Just Retreat Into The Forest: Bryan Danielson

    Bryan Danielson then revealed an interesting conversation he had with fellow BCC member Claudio Castagnoli, while also discussing the downsides of being in the spotlight:

    “Claudio had just mentioned to me on Wednesday when we were driving back to our hotel after Dynamite, he goes, ‘You know, Bryan, whenever you’re done, I kind of hope I never see you again.’ What he meant by that, and then he added later, he was like, ‘I mean I’d love to come visit you at your house, like far away from everybody, but I kind of hope that that’s it.’

    Because I think he kind of knows that that’s what I want. You know what I mean it’s to kind of disappear. There’s definitely benefits to being in the spotlight but then there’s also a lot of trade-offs. I think sometimes if you experience mental health issues and stuff like that, being in the spotlight isn’t necessarily a good thing.

    So yeah, I’d like to just kind of retreat into the forest. I don’t watch a lot of TV but I vaguely remember Homer Simpson, he’s in the bushes and he just slowly disappears out, right. That’s me but into the woods.”

    AEW All In will be coming live from the Wembley stadium in London. International viewers can check out local start times and other details for the show here.

  • Darby Allin Calls Out “Ungrateful” Jack Perry Over AEW All In Drama

    Darby Allin Calls Out “Ungrateful” Jack Perry Over AEW All In Drama

    Darby Allin isn’t holding back his feelings about Jack Perry and the infamous All In: London 2023 incident that reshaped Perry’s career. In an interview with Kenny McIntosh of Inside The Ropes, Allin didn’t mince words, calling Perry “ungrateful” for his actions at last year’s event.

    “You think of 80,000-plus fans, and then you’re gonna go into business for yourself. There are literally people who would die for that opportunity, people who will never get to do that, and then you’re more focused on that.”

    Perry’s ‘real glass’ comment during last year’s match with HOOK resulted in a backstage altercation with CM Punk that in the eyes of many, overshadowed AEW’s first stadium event. At the post-show media scrum, AEW President Tony Khan acknowledged that an incident had taken place but said he would not be taking questions on the matter.

    Punk was released for his role in the altercation, and would return to WWE a few months later at Survivor Series in Chicago. While Perry was hit with a lengthy suspension, the incident has redefined the AEW TNT Champion as the ‘Scapegoat’ and his change of character has made him one of AEW’s top stars.

    AEW aired the footage of the backstage altercation in April of this year, days after Punk made unflattering comments about AEW on Ariel Helwani’s MMA Hour podcast. On TV, the decision to air the footage was explained as the Young Bucks justifying their 2023 loss to FTR, saying they’d been distracted by the backstage ordeal.

    What’s to Come?

    Jack Perry will defend the AEW TNT Championship against Darby Allin later today at AEW All In: London 2024. The pair will collide in a Coffin Match in what has become one of the most personal and intense rivalries in AEW today. AEW All In: London 2024 will take place from Wembley Stadium in London, England. Stay tuned to SE Scoops for all the latest from the show including breaking news and live results.

    Mariah May & Toni Storm Brawl Ahead of AEW All In: London 2024

    Mariah May and Toni Storm haven’t waited for AEW All In: London 2024 to get their hands on one another as the pair brawled at the All In Celebration. At the Wembley Park event, May was taking part in an interview with RJ City when Toni Storm made a surprise appearance to attack the woman who’ll challenge for her AEW Women’s World Title.

    The confrontation escalated quickly, with Storm even attempting to throw a stool at May before they were separated. Grabbing the mic, Storm asked if May was prepared to die and said that her life will be very different in 24 hours, after their match.

    May Vs. Storm – The Story So Far

    Mariah May shocked the wrestling world by turning on Toni Storm after winning the 2023 Owen Hart Women’s Foundation Tournament. Storm was left a bloody mess due to the attack the feud has only intensified since then, with Storm even going so far as to ask May if she is “ready to die.”

    The pair had previously been allies on TV with May helping Storm in her efforts to remain AEW Women’s World Champion. This weekend’s match will mark May’s first time competing inside Wembley Stadium and the second for Storm who wrestled at All In 2023.

    AEW All In: London 2024

    AEW All In: London 2024 will take place from Wembley Stadium on August 31, and will be AEW’s second event inside Wembley Stadium. Currently, ten matches have been announced for the evening, including eight title matches. The show will begin at 5:00 pm British Standard Time, which is 1:00 pm PT.

  • Mercedes Mone – ‘I Feel Seen in AEW, That Hasn’t Always Been The Case’

    Mercedes Mone – ‘I Feel Seen in AEW, That Hasn’t Always Been The Case’

    AEW TBS Champion Mercedes Mone feels truly seen as part of Tony Khan’s first promotion and has said that hasn’t always been the case in her career. Writing for The Independent ahead of this weekend’ AEW All In: London 2024 event, Mone spoke of the respect she is shown as an ‘All Elite’ talent.

    “In WWE you have no idea what you’ll be doing week to week, but here I have space to be heard. Along with Tony Khan and with my friend and personal writer Jennifer Pepperman, there’s time to sit down and really plan out the kinds of stories we want to tell.

    “I’m treated with genuine respect, and I really feel seen in a way I sometimes haven’t before. I love it so much here.”

    Mone joined AEW at the Big Business: Dynamite show in March of this year, close to two years after she and Naomi walked out of WWE in May of 2022. Mone would subsequently join New Japan Pro Wrestling where she is a former IWGP Women’s Champion.

    What’s To Come?

    Mone will put her TBS Championship on the line at AEW All In: London 2024 against Britt Baker, a match fans have been itching to see long before Mone was ‘All Elite.’ On this week’s Dynamite, Baker addressed Mone’s past as ‘one of four’ (a nod to her role in WWE’s Four Horsewomen) while the DMD sees herself as one-of-a-kind.

    AEW All In: London 2024 will take place tomorrow, August 25, from Wembley Stadium in London, England. Stay tuned to SE Scoops for all the latest on All In: London 2024, including live results.

  • Swerve Strickland Opens Up About The Lowest Point of His Wrestling Career

    Swerve Strickland Opens Up About The Lowest Point of His Wrestling Career

    Swerve Strickland is at the top of the wrestling world right now. The journey of this success, however, hasn’t been an easy one and he has had to go through some very tough times to get here.

    The AEW World Champion recently had an interview with SHAK Wrestling. He discussed things such as his pairing with Prince Nana, who would win a match between Kendrick Lamar and Drake and more.

    During the interview, Strickland was asked about his struggles and what was the lowest point of his career. The AEW star mentioned that it was right before he got the Lucha Underground opportunity:

    “Definitely earlier on. Feeling lowest was like probably right before Lucha Underground came around. It was like, ‘oh man, it’s either I continue on this independence or I just got to go to Japan for a year, find a way to do that,’ Which I still didn’t have like a real connection or any type of link to get to that.

    Either that or just like I’m gonna have to go full-time active duty in the military. It was like that turning point, and then Lucha Underground came in as an opportunity. It wasn’t even just a contract; it was more of like a tryout for Lucha Underground in dark matches. They didn’t even know yet.”

    The Lowest Point

    Swerve Strickland started wrestling while he was still serving in the United States Army Reserve. Having to balance his day job with his wrestling aspirations while also having little kids was almost an impossible task for him:

    “So that was probably the most turning point because it was like two kids, employment wasn’t really working out as much. Check to check, check to check, like little cash here and there on the independence. But that was probably the lowest point.

    [I] didn’t even have a car, I was definitely borrowing cars or getting on the train to get to Philadelphia for CCW events or jumping in carpools and rides and things like that. There’s just a lot going on. Trying to maintain a successful wrestling career and a job consistent employment, almost impossible. Probably harder nowadays than it was 10 years ago. So that’s definitely like my turning point though.”

    Fortunately for Swerve, Lucha Underground signed him to a contract in 2014. He quickly became one of the most prominent characters of the show wrestling under the ring name of Killshot.

    The Lucha Underground run opened the doors for Strickland’s WWE signing in 2019. When the company let him go while cutting costs during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2021, Swerve joined AEW and the rest is history.

  • Tony Khan Gives Update on Ricky Starks Amid AEW Star’s Hiatus

    Tony Khan Gives Update on Ricky Starks Amid AEW Star’s Hiatus

    AEW President Tony Khan has given an update on Ricky Starks, close to five months since the former World Tag Team Champion last competed. Speaking on a media call ahead of AEW All In: London 2024, Khan was asked about Starks who last appeared in a tag-team loss on the March 30, edition of AEW Collision.

    Khan called Starks a “great star” of AEW and someone who has had “great matches here.” The AEW President confirmed that Starks remains under contract with AEW and is “a well-regarded wrestler.” Khan stopped short of saying when fans should expect to see the former Tag Team and FTW Champion back in the ring.

    Ricky Starks’ AEW Status

    Khan’s comments come after multiple reports suggesting that Starks not only has one foot out of the door but is set to join WWE when the time is right. It has been claimed that AEW has been reluctant to use Starks as some within the company believe he is set to leave for WWE and therefore don’t want to invest in him.

    The 34-year-old wrestler has reportedly drawn interest from WWE with NXT sources stating they hope to bring him to the gold brand. Starks is a good friend of WWE Undisputed Champion Cody Rhodes and was spotted at last year’s Royal Rumble PLE. Rhodes is one of a handful of AEW alum to thrive in WWE, alongside Jade Cargill, NXT Champion Ethan Page, Lexis King, and Shawn Spears.

    Ricky Starks is oblivious about the circumstances of why he’s spent most of 2024 on the sidelines in AEW. Stay tuned to SE Scoops for all the latest on Ricky Starks and whether his wrestling future is in AEW or elsewhere.

  • Ricochet is Reportedly All Elite and London Bound

    Ricochet is Reportedly All Elite and London Bound

    Former WWE Superstar Ricochet is expected to debut for AEW imminently. The former Intercontinental champion was abruptly written off television in June. By the end of the month, it was rumored that he and WWE failed to agree on a new contract, and he’d soon be a free agent for the first time since 2018. Amid speculation about his next move, AEW President Tony Khan added to the hype by praising Ricochet as, “one of the most exciting stars in all of wrestling.”

    Ricochet has reached a multi-year agreement to join All Elite Wrestling, according to Fightful Select. The 35-year-old high-flyer is on his way to London, and is expected to have a role at Sunday’s AEW All In pay-per-view.

    Wembley Stadium is a grand stage to debut, and the Casino Gauntlet match just got even more interesting, as it often includes surprise appearances. Ricochet lost the WWE Speed championship to Andrade in his final match.

    Stay tuned to SEScoops this weekend for our coverage of AEW All In 2024.

  • Mariah May: AEW Asked Me To Stop Kissing Mina Shirakawa

    Mariah May: AEW Asked Me To Stop Kissing Mina Shirakawa

    Mariah May was encouraged to stop with public displays of affection with Mina Shirakawa and Toni Storm by AEW, according to the British wrestler herself. Speaking on the Wrestling with Freddie podcast, May recalled the backstage reaction to her locking lips with her long-time tag-team partner Shirakawa during an episode of AEW programming.

    “It was not pitched. We just did it. Mina and I are extremely close. We’ve always been very close in Stardom. We just did it. The next time around, they were like, ‘Hey, can you guys stop kissing?’”

    May blamed the request on an “archaic view” of things, adding that it’s her choice who she kisses and she would say if she was not comfortable. The number-one contender for the AEW Women’s World Champion added that her kissing Mina earned gripes from “the usual suspects.”

    “‘Oh my God. This is setting women’s wrestling back so much.’ It’s like, first of all, no one made us do it. We chose to do it... Like I said, if I don’t want to do something, I won’t.”

    May and Mina kissed shortly after Shirakawa’s arrival in AEW earlier this year. The two also shared a three-way kiss with Toni Storm at AEWxNJPW: Forbidden Door after Storm retained her title against Shirakawa. Storm and May had previously kissed on AEW programming.

    Listen to Mariah May on Wrestling with Freddie

    What’s To Come?

    May has had little reason to kiss anyone ever since turning on Storm following her win in the Owen Hart Women’s Foundation Tournament. The former allies will face off at AEW All In: London 2024 this Sunday inside Wembley Stadium. The show will be a homecoming for May though she has yet to compete inside Wembley. The match will be Storm’s second match in the Stadium after competing at last year’s All In: London pay-per-view.

  • Costco Guys Apparently Tease AEW All Out Appearance

    Costco Guys Apparently Tease AEW All Out Appearance

    Costco Guys have seemingly dropped hints about a potential appearance at the upcoming All Out pay-per-view.

    AJ from the Costco Guys spoke on Barstool’s YAK and said they are in discussions with a major pro wrestling promotion about making an appearance in Chicago in early September. He could be indicating an appearance for AEW. It’s worth noting that AEW is heading to Chicago for Collision on September 6 and the All Out pay-per-view on September 7. Here is what AJ said:

    “We are working something out with a major wrestling organisation and I think that is almost final. If that does happen, we’ll be in Chicago in early September.”

    Brandon Walker noted that would be for an AEW event. However, AJ added while laughing: “I didn’t say that.”

    The Costco Guys – AJ and Big Justice are a Florida-based father-son duo and they gained popularity on TikTok for their love of Costco. They often rate things ‘Boom’ or ‘Doom’ along with The Rizzler. The Costco Guys have a staggering 1.6 million followers on TikTok.

    Though AEW All Out pay-per-view is a few weeks away, only one match has been announced for the show so far. Will Ospreay and MJF are set to collide for AEW American Championship at All In. Pac is set to challenge the winner of that match at All Out.

    AEW American Championship was originally known as the AEW All-Atlantic Championship and Pac was the inaugural champion. He held the gold for 108 days. The title was eventually rebranded the AEW International Championship in March 2023. Now, MJF has again renamed it to be AEW American Championship.

    AEW All Out 2024 will emanate from Now Arena in Hoffman Estates, Illinois on September 7. It will mark the sixth installment of the pay-per-view.

  • Hangman Page Feels Swerve Strickland Should Have Never Won AEW World Title; Wants To Erase His Name

    Hangman Page Feels Swerve Strickland Should Have Never Won AEW World Title; Wants To Erase His Name

    Former AEW World Champion Hangman Page never fails to express his hatred towards the current champion, Swerve Strickland. ‘Hangman’ believes that his arch-rival should have never won the title and he feels that their beef could be settled if he could erase Swerve’s name from the history books.

    Page recently spoke to Paste Magazine about a number of topics including their personal feud with Strickland. During the interview, Page emphasized that his persona is inseparable from his real-life identity. He described the trauma of Strickland breaking into his home, leading him and his family to leave the house they cherished. Page has now vowed to erase Strickland’s name from wrestling history, saying:

    “He should never have won it. He shouldn’t have it today. He shouldn’t have it tomorrow. It should be mine. If it were mine, I would do everything that I could to erase his name from history of all wrestling from this planet. What would “settle it” would be that, for me to erase him from history altogether, to let his name disappear into the wind and let him be nothing, nothing to anyone else. To solve it would be for him to drop to his knees in front of me and beg for my mercy. On his knees, begging for my mercy. I would never give it, but he should beg for it.”

    Hangman Page’s crowning achievement

    Page expressed a deep personal connection to the AEW World Championship. It’s been a little over a couple of years since he dropped. He labeled it “one of the crowning achievements” of his life. He feels the title has strayed from its true meaning since he lost it.

    Bryan Danielson will challenge Swerve Strickland for the title at this weekend’s AEW All In: London. ‘The American Dragon’ has put his career on the line for the title match. When asked if Danielson’s potential victory could restore the meaning, Hangman said:

    “He is a fantastic wrestler. He’s one of the best to have ever lived, and admittedly, he doesn’t have long left, and he’s okay with the idea of this being it. I just want to draw a stark contrast to maybe how he feels about that championship and how I feel about it. I’m not okay never holding it again. I’m not okay with it in the hands of the person that it’s in. I would not be okay walking away from this in the state that things are in right now. And if that’s how [Danielson] feels about it, about the championship, about the World champion, I can’t say that I have any respect at all for that.”

    Hangman Page acknowledged the connection he’s built with fans but he doesn’t want their support if they don’t actively oppose Strickland. He also harbors resentment toward the Elite and held them responsible for his suspension, which allowed Strickland to win the championship. He said:

    “…maybe I created some kind of a connection, especially in the beginning of AEW, with certain fans, you know. I don’t know. And if they are with me on this ride that I am on now, then I do appreciate it. But unless they’re willing to attack [Swerve] in the parking lot, unless they’re willing to call out what he did for what it is, and not acknowledge him at all as a champion, then I don’t want their support.”

    He added:

    “Had it not been for them, I would have never been suspended. They could have fought that. I stuck up for them. So many times they stuck up for me too, but this last time they could have stuck up for me and I would have not been suspended. [Swerve] would have never won the World championship and right now, to me, that is unforgivable. I don’t know that it can be forgiven. But I’m not really worried about [the Elite] right now.”

    On last night’s AEW Dynamite Page announced that he will enter the Casino gauntlet match at this Sunday’s All In. As he begins his quest to reclaim his title, winning the match will earn him a AEW World title shot in the future.

  • Bryan Danielson Gives Will Ospreay His Blessing To Use Tiger Driver 91

    Bryan Danielson Gives Will Ospreay His Blessing To Use Tiger Driver 91

    Will Ospreay may use the Tiger Driver 91 again, after seemingly being granted the blessing of Bryan Danielson during AEW Dynamite in Cardiff. On the show, Ospreay and MJF had an in-ring segment that resulted in MJF hitting a brainbuster on the man who’ll face him at AEW All In: London. The segment ended with Ospready bleeding from the head as the AEW American Champion celebrated what he had done.

    Backstage, Ospreay was seen being tended to by a member of AEW’s medical crew as Renee Paquette tried to get his thoughts. Before she could do so, Bryan Danielson had a tense face-to-face with Ospreay and told him to “do it.”

    The ‘it’ being referred to is seemingly Ospreay’s Tiger Driver 91 finisher, a move that the Brit has been against using since facing Danielson at AEW Dynasty. After Danielson was left motionless in the ring, with fans worried he had suffered a serious injury, Ospreay said on the post-show media scrum that he was retiring the move.

    Ospreay’s reluctance to use the move has played into matches, as there has been spots where he has instinctively gone for the move, only to stop, giving his opponent a window to take advantage. With Danielson’s blessing, Ospreay could add one of the most exceptional (and dangerous) moves back to his repertoire when he faces MJF at All In: London.

    AEW All In: London 2024

    AEW All In: London 2024 will take place this Sunday, August 25, from Wembley Stadium in London, England.

    Oku and Miller didn’t appear on TV at this week’s Dynamite in Cardiff (the first TV taping outside North America) but that could easily change. Talent within RevPro shared their hope to Fightful earlier this month that Oku will be signed after his match with MJF. Oku is the current Undisputed British Heavyweight Champion, after defeating Great-O-Khan last month. The report adds that Blair could also be signed alongside Oku.

    After Summer Sizzler, Oku told Stephanie Chase that there had been discussions between both he and Amira and AEW, and he has also teased appearing at All In: London. Stay tuned to SE Scoops for the latest on these two wrestlers and their quest to be ‘All-Elite.’

  • Darby Allin: A Potential AEW World Champion in the Making?

    Darby Allin: A Potential AEW World Champion in the Making?

    Darby Allin is reportedly being considered for a potential run with the AEW World Championship, mere days before he challenges for the TNT title. The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that discussions about Allin holding the AEW World Title have taken place though the timing of this potential run remains unclear.

    Allin will challenge for the AEW World Championship at the Dynamite: Grand Slam on September 25, a prize for winning this year’s Royal Rampage. The question now is whether Allin will challenge current champion Swerve Strickland or Bryan Danielson. The two will face off at AEW All In: London 2024 later this week in Wembley Stadium.

    While Danielson is the favorite to win the AEW World Championship, his reign may not be a long one. Bryan recently shared that he expects to undergo neck surgery this year which would make a potential AEW World Title reign a brief venture. Between that and Bryan openly discussing ending his full-time in-ring career, some fans believe that Grand Slam: Dynamite would be an ideal coronation of Allin as World Champion.

    Allin will also be in action at All In: London 2024. The 31-year-old will challenge TNT Champion Jack Perry in a Coffin match in Wembley Stadium. Allin already holds the record for the longest title reign (186 days) and most combined days overall (214 days.)

    Darby Allin & The AEW World Championship

    Allin has had three opportunities at the AEW World Champion so far in his career, including on the third episode of Dynamite in October 2019. The first TV defense of the gold saw inaugural champion Chris Jericho retain in a Street Fight.

    Allin’s next opportunity would again be on Dynamite, this time in July 2020 and saw him come up short against Jon Moxley. His most recent shot at AEW’s richest prize was at Double or Nothing 2023, where MJF retained in a four-way that included Jack Perry and Sammy Guevara.

    Chris Jericho Has Several Great Reasons To Stay In Wrestling

    Chris Jericho has much more TV time he wants to fill before he considers ending his legendary pro wrestling career, regardless of what a vocal group of fans say. The inaugural AEW World Champion is having none of the chatter on social media and at AEW live events that he should retire

    “Sting, at 64, retired and everybody is different,” Jericho tells Daily Star. “To me, when the ‘Please retire!’ chants were going, I was laughing because I have zero intentions of that.”

    The 53-year-old referenced his ‘six-pack’ abs, his athleticism and decades of experience as reasons why he still needs to funnel young talent into the ‘Jericho Vortex’ for quality time under ‘The Learning Tree.’

    “I’ve got a six pack, I can do a moonsault, and I know exactly what I’m doing in the ring,” Jericho said. “I know how to write storylines. I like the company I work for. I like my boss. I like the guys and girls in the company. Why would I want to retire? What’s the point, because someone told me to? F**k off.”

    Jericho makes it clear there’s no timetable, and no real reason, for him to wrestle his final match.

    “There is no time-limit,” he stated. “It could be this week. It could be five years from now. I don’t know. I just know that as of this moment, I’m having a great time. I love going to work. I love contributing. There is no reason to stop doing that.”

    – Chris Jericho, Daily Star

    Chris Jericho will wrestle “Dynamite Kid” Tommy Billington on AEW Dynamite tonight from Cardiff, Wales. It’s the ‘go-home’ show before AEW All In this Sunday August 25 from Wembley Stadium in London, England. Jericho will once again pull double duty on AEW’s biggest event of the year. His band Fozzy will perform live at the event for a second consecutive year and he’ll defend his FTW title against HOOK a “Last Chance Match.”

  • Tony Khan – ‘Right Now Is The Most Exciting Time In AEW History’

    Tony Khan – ‘Right Now Is The Most Exciting Time In AEW History’

    There’s never been a more exciting time for All Elite Wrestling and its fans, according to AEW President Tony Khan. Ahead of this weekend’s AEW All In: London 2024 pay-per-view, Khan shared his excitement in an interview with Barstool Rasslin.

    “It’s a really exciting time for the company and I think it’s the most exciting time in the history of the company right now. We’re coming up, we’ve got, this massive event we’re just days away from. AEW All In: London, Wembley Stadium. It’s a huge, huge event… There’s a lot of cool things happening in the company right now.”

    AEW certainly has plenty in the works, including their first stadium event in the United States. AEW All In: Texas 2025 will take place in Arlington and will mark the latest development in AEW’s relationship with the city. Khan has confirmed that All In will return to the UK in 2026.

    The promotion is also finalizing a new broadcast rights deal with Warner Bros. Discovery which appears to be going well for Khan and his promotion, according to recent reports. Khan has often spoken highly of AEW’s relationship with WBD and David Zaslav, and intends to work with the broadcaster for a long time to come.

    On-screen, AEW continues to produce hours of wrestling content every week with Dynamite, Rampage, and Collision, and will host its first TV show outside North America with tonight’s Dynamite from Cardiff, Wales.

    While AEW may have plenty in the works, there will be fans who disagree with the stance that now is the most exciting time, at least in terms of the on-screen product. AEW has seen a dip in viewership across all three of its shows as of late, with Rampage recently hitting an all-time low (admittedly against the Paris Summer Olympics.) While Khan is excited about the now and the future, the task remains for the AEW President to get fans who’ve since stopped tuning in regularly just as amped up.

  • Chris Jericho’s Band Fozzy Will Perform Live At AEW All In (Again)

    Chris Jericho’s Band Fozzy Will Perform Live At AEW All In (Again)

    Chris Jericho’s metal band Fozzy will perform at AEW All In for the second consecutive year.

    “We’re going to do that again. To say we’ve played Wembley Stadium twice. It’s a combined 5 minutes. At Wembley, I think any Rock’n Roll band would take that.”

    – Chris Jericho, Daily Star

    Jericho performed his song ‘Judas’ with Fozzy for his ring entrance before his epic match with Will Ospreay last year at All In in front of over 80,000 fans.

    Below, we break down the top contenders and their odds according to BetOnline right now.

    Main Event Matchups and Favorites

    Bryan Danielson vs Swerve Strickland (c)

    One of the most intriguing matchups at AEW All In 2024 features Bryan Danielson, who is currently favored to win with odds of -300. His opponent, Swerve Strickland, the reigning champion, stands as the underdog with odds of +200.

    Danielson’s experience and popularity make him a strong favorite, but talks of him retiring and working without a contract right now mean there is a good chance these odds are wrong.

    Mariah May vs. Toni Storm (c)

    In the women’s division, Mariah May is heavily favored to defeat Toni Storm, with odds of -700.

    Toni Storm, the defending champion, faces long odds at +400. The odds reflect May’s rising status in AEW and her momentum going into this match, positioning her as the likely winner.

    Will Ospreay vs. MJF (c)

    Will Ospreay is one of the biggest favorites at AEW All In 2024, with odds of -1200. His opponent, MJF, comes in as the underdog with odds of +600.

    Given Ospreay wrestling in front of the home crowd and the way this feud has gone, it’s no surprise that he is expected to come out on top in this bout.

    Mercedes Mone (c) vs. Britt Baker

    Mercedes Mone is another overwhelming favorite with odds of -2000 to retain her title against Britt Baker, who is listed at +700.

    Jack Perry (c) vs. Darby Allin

    Jack Perry is favored to win with odds of -600 against Darby Allin, who has odds of +350. Perry’s recent success in the ring suggest he will retain his championship at Wembley Stadium.

    Mercedes Moné Plans To Revolutionize Women’s Wrestling Again

    Mercedes Moné promises to elevate women’s wrestling again, and we’ll see the next ‘phase’ of her plan this Sunday at All Out. Speaking in her Moné Mag newsletter, the AEW TBS Champion invoked the Four Horsewomen of NXT. “Charlotte, Bayley, Becky, and I led Phase 1 of the women’s revolution. We disrupted the business in the best and most necessary way.”

    Looking ahead, she declared, “With me coming here [in AEW], I promise that another disruption to the business of women’s wrestling is coming. Phase 2 is just getting started.”

    She highlighted the representation at the PPV, and drew a stark comparison to WWE’s past efforts. “There are 3 women’s matches at All In… When ‘Mania was 1 night, how many women’s matches were there? Not 3.”

    The three matches involving women scheduled for AEW All In 2024 are (Full Card):

  • Charles Barkley Would “Absolutely” Be Welcomed in AEW

    Charles Barkley Would “Absolutely” Be Welcomed in AEW

    Tony Khan has expressed that he would welcome Charles Barkley to AEW television with open arms if the NBA legend shows interest. Khan, currently making media appearances to promote Sunday’s AEW All In pay-per-view at Wembley Stadium in London, shared these thoughts during an appearance on the Dan Le Batard Show. He discussed AEW’s relationship with Warner Bros. Discovery and ongoing media rights negotiations.

    While Warner Bros. Discovery is set to lose the NBA and its iconic Inside the NBA franchise, co-host Charles Barkley remains committed to the company for the foreseeable future. This has sparked speculation about Barkley potentially appearing in AEW, following in the footsteps of Shaquille O’Neal, who wrestled on AEW Dynamite in 2020. Khan mentioned that he believes Barkley is a wrestling fan and recalled the AEW crew presenting the Inside the NBA team with AEW Championship belts.

    Khan praised Shaq, not just for his work in AEW but also for the kind of person he is. If Sir Charles is interested in stepping into the unpredictable world of professional wrestling, Khan is “absolutely” willing to make it happen.

    “I don’t know what the future of the NBA holds, but Charles Barkley, as far as being one of the top hosts in all of sports and being one of the most entertaining people in all of television, I think he adds to any sport he’s involved in.

    If he wanted to come to AEW, we would love that. Absolutely, I would encourage that and support that.”
