AEW All Out 2024 was another huge night for Tony Khan’s promotion, with a shocking heel turn, title matches, and a violent main event. A reported incident backstage has recently drummed up speculation of more trouble within the company and we now have an update about what happened inside the NOW Arena.
On Wrestling Observer Radio, Bryan Alvarez confirmed that “security dudes just started sprinting” before the AEW World Title match between Bryan Danielson and Jack Perry.
“What happened was apparently there was some incident with one of the wrestlers that wasn’t on this show, they were shooting something backstage, and this wrestler and a production guy got into a big thing. Some people are saying it was absolutely nothing but it was big enough that security sprinted backstage.“
Alvarez adds that the two sides “talked it out and everything ended up okay.” The security personnel would return to their posts in time for the pay-per-view main event between Swerve Strickland and ‘Hangman’ Adam Page.
With the wrestler involved in this alleged incident not being part of the AEW All Out card, that rules out several notable names including The Young Bucks who were suspended in 2022 for their role in ‘Brawl Out.’ On Twitter, Tay Melo stated that her husband Sammy Guevara, who was not booked for All Out 2024, did not have an incident backstage.
