AEW All Out: Kris Statlander is Ruthless in Win over Willow Nightingale

Kris Statlander was absolutely ruthless in her win over Willow Nightingale tonight at AEW All Out 2024 from the NOW Arena in Illinois.

The two All Elite stars faced in a Chicago Street Fight following their tag team match at All In just a few weeks ago. Nightingale and Tomohiro Ishii won the tag bout in Wembley so Statlander was looking for revenge here…and revenge she got.

After a brutal Street Fight between these two women, Statlander would get the win by wrapping a chain around Willow’s neck, throat and mouth forcing the referee to call for the bell!

AEW All Out: Fans Not Happy with MJF vs Daniel Garcia Finish (Reaction)

AEW All Out has now begun and the PPV card began with the grudge match between MJF and Daniel Garcia, which would end after around 30 minutes with a low blow by Maxwell.

The crowd in attendance at the NOW Arena in Illinois were hot and into the whole match from the opening bell, but the finish appears to have angered some fans online who seemingly were hoping for something else.

AEW All Out: MJF Goes Full Scumbag to Beat Daniel Garcia

MJF managed to get the win against Daniel Garcia at AEW All Out 2024 from the NOW Arena, despite Garcia having just returned to the company.

Garcia made his return at the All In PPV event from London just a few weeks ago, distracting Maxwell and costing him his ‘American’ Championship against Will Ospreay. MJF was looking for revenge in this match against the former ROH Pure Champion, who reportedly has still not re-signed with All Elite Wrestling.

After a fantastic match to open the show, Maxwell would hit a low blow and then a Jacknife Pin to take the win in his signature scumbag style. Garcia would get a measure of revenge as Maxwell tried to attack him after the bell, but Garcia would grab the leg and hit is own low blow before taking him to the turnbuckle to hit a piledriver from the second rope.

AEW All Out: Mariah May Takes NSFW Shot at Chicago

AEW Women’s Champion Mariah May took a NSFW shot at Chicago and the crowd in the NOW Arena tonight at All Out.

May appeared during the Zero Hour Pre-Show, interrupting Skye Blue’s segment and saying that she would NOT be having her Championship celebration in Chicago.

The AEW Women’s Champion would not stop there though, adding “Why do they call it the Windy City, when nobody here has ever been blown before?” before attacking Skye Blue.

AEW All Out Predictions: Will Adam Page and Swerve Burn the House Down?

AEW All Out 2024 is set to deliver big, with key matches featuring top-tier talent from the All Elite roster. With just weeks since AEW’s landmark All In event at Wembley Stadium, fans are eagerly anticipating what’s next in Chicago. Below are our predictions for the major matches scheduled for the event.

Read More – AEW All Out 2024 Live Stream: How to watch

AEW All Out 2024 Predictions

AEW World Championship: Bryan Danielson (c) vs. Jack Perry

Bryan Danielson will defend his newly acquired AEW World Championship against Jack Perry. Given Danielson’s recent title victory, it’s unlikely he’ll lose the belt so soon. Perry offers a solid challenge, but Danielson should retain.

Prediction: Bryan Danielson retains

Unsanctioned Lights Out Steel Cage Match: Swerve Strickland vs. “Hangman” Adam Page

This heated rivalry has been brewing for over a year. Although Page is driven by revenge, AEW seems to have big plans for Strickland. Strickland recently lost the AEW World Title, so a victory here would keep his momentum going, but the odds appear to favor Page and that is who we see winning.

Prediction: Adam Page wins

AEW TBS Championship: Mercedes Mone (c) vs. Hikaru Shida

Mercedes Mone has been dominant since joining AEW. While Shida presents a tough opponent, it seems unlikely that Mone will drop the title after a high-profile defense against Britt Baker.

Prediction: Mercedes Mone retains

AEW International Championship: Will Ospreay (c) vs. Pac

Will Ospreay has been a force in AEW, especially after winning the title at All In. Given his recent victory, Ospreay is likely to retain in what could be a show-stealing match.

Prediction: Will Ospreay retains

MJF vs. Daniel Garcia

MJF remains one of AEW’s brightest stars, and a loss here could damage his growing legacy. With his storyline with Garcia likely to continue, we expect MJF to secure the win.

Prediction: MJF wins

Chicago Street Fight: Willow Nightingale vs. Kris Statlander

With Nightingale and Tomohiro Ishii having already beaten Kris Statlander and Stokeley Hathaway at All In, it would make sense for Statlander to get the win back here and keep her recent heel turn strong.

Prediction: Kris Statlander wins

AEW World Tag Team Championship: The Young Bucks (c) vs. Blackpool Combat Club (Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta)

The Young Bucks will be defending their AEW Tag Team Championship against Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta of the Blackpool Combat Club. Although Claudio and Wheeler are credible opponents, there’s a good chance that The Bucks will retain to keep their Elite EVP storyline ongoing.

Prediction: The Young Bucks retain

AEW Continental Championship Match: Kazuchika Okada vs Mark Briscoe vs Orange Cassidy vs Konosuke Takeshita

This should be a good match and seeing Okada vs Takeshita should be fantastic, but we can see Okada retaining here until he gets a full one-on-one encounter with someone the caliber of Konosuke.

Prediction: Kazuchika Okada Retains

AEW All Out: Fans Predict Who Will Ruin Mariah May Celebration Segment

Mariah May will be holding her AEW Women’s Championship celebration at the All Out PPV tonight, but fans are expecting a pretty big twist. Seeing as AEW rarely does these sorts of segments on PPV, many are wondering who could be making an appearance to make a splash or ruin the big night for the Glamour.

The question was posed earlier today on X and there have been a ton of different guesses from people, with Beth Phoenix, Athena, Tay Melo, Gisele Shaw, Anna Jay and Rebecca Quin all being at the top of the pile.

Mina Shirakawa would’ve been the most likely candidate to show up tonight on the PPV, but she is wrestling in Japan tomorrow, so the likelihood of that is quite low, if not impossible.

New ‘AEW Shockwave’ Trademark Hints At One of Company’s Impending Announcements

A new trademark filing may have revealed one of the announcements Tony Khan has been teasing for All Elite Wrestling in recent weeks.

The AEW President claimed that the most important announcements in his company’s history ‘were looming large’ earlier this month.

Now it has been revealed that on September 6, the promotion filed a new trademark application with USPTO for ‘AEW: SHOCKWAVE’ for ‘Entertainment services in the nature of production of professional wrestling programs and events.’

It’s unknown what the officials intend to use the trademark for at this point, but the naming scheme suggests it to be a special similar to NXT: Heatwave instead of a weekly show.

AEW’s New TV Deals

AEW’s current TV deal with WarnerBros Discovery is scheduled to expire later this year. The company’s media rights renewal has been a hot topic of discussion among fans.

There have been many reports of positive talks between the wrestling company and its TV partners but so far there has been no solid development in the matter.

President Tony Khan has teased some big announcements for the company a number of times. While addressing the crowd after last night’s Collision, Khan said that he thinks AEW on TNT and TBS was ‘here to stay.’

One of the things people are expecting to see with the new deals is the inclusion of a streaming agreement which will finally provide a home to the promotion’s tape library.

While not confirmed, it’s possible that the new trademark is in preparation for a media rights renewal announcement. It can be used for specials on streaming platform or TV, that gets announced alongside the new media deal.

AEW TV Deal: Promising Update Before All Out

Tony Khan has to be feeling confident when it comes to the future of All Elite Wrestling on Turner broadcasting as the AEW President had some promising words for the live crowd in Chicago.

AEW Collision aired live last night ahead of ALL OUT this Saturday and while the action in the ring was set to go down, Khan made his usual appearance in front of the live crowd. Khan is going back to his classic look with a clean shave and glasses which could be a callback to the days of AEW old, but he did make some interesting statements to the live audience regarding AEW’s future with TBS and TNT. Khan was amped up in his hometown of Chicago as he commented on the potential of a forthcoming television deal with the promotion’s longtime TV partner.

“I feel pretty good to say, AEW on TBS and TNT, I think is here to stay!”

There’s been a lot of thought that a new television deal between WBD and AEW has been well in the works, but Khan has been much more vocal about it in recent days. During the ALL OUT media call on Thursday, Khan was asked about a new deal update and praised the relationship that AEW has had with Turner and their president David Zaslav. He even brought the relationship up unprompted later on during the call before actually saying that AEW is in “the redzone” with the new deal, they just gotta put the ball into the endzone, using a NFL reference.

Adam Copeland Sees Wrestling Potential in Sting’s Son

Former TNT Champion Adam Copeland is confident that wrestling legend Sting’s son Steven Borden could handle the pressure if he entered the pro wrestling business.

Steven and his brother Garrett both appeared during Sting’s retirement match at AEW Revolution earlier this year. Sting teamed up with Darby Allin and defeated The Young Bucks. Steven came out as Wolfpac Sting, and even performed a Stinger Splash that garnered massive praise. Borden has been training with Darby Allin and had a training session with Allin, Copeland, and FTR. There has been speculation that Steven could follow his father’s footsteps.

The Rated R Superstar told Sports Illustrated’s The Takedown that he feels Steven is eager to be a part of the business, especially after AEW Revolution in Greensboro. He said:

“I think at Revolution there in Greensboro, he got a bit of the itch. He felt what it is. And once you feel that, man, it’s hard to walk away from that. It’s hard to go, ‘Wait, that wasn’t cool.’ You’re going to go, ‘That was really cool and really fun.’”

Copeland praised the 6’3 powerhouse for his physique and believes he has similarities with his legendary father in conducting himself. He added:

“It’s a great gig. So I think he felt that. Also in terms of his physicality, I mean, he’s 6-3. He’s about 230 pounds. He’s probably sitting about eight percent body fat. He looks the part. He’s got a good head on his shoulders, very similar to his dad in how he conducts himself, which is a great thing.”

There have been some second-generation wrestlers who couldn’t live up to the expectations of the fans. On the other hand, some have thrived in the business. The former TNT Champion admitted that there would be a lot of pressure on Steven should he enter the pro wrestling business. However, Copeland reckoned that the former college football player has what it takes to handle it. He said:

“I think now it’s really up to him. What does he want to put into it? Does he want to put in the work that it will take? Because you got to figure it. You might look at it and say, ‘Ok, an easier pathway into the business.’

“But once he’s in the business, there’s going to be a big spotlight on him, and with that comes extra pressures. You’re Sting’s son and trying to break out of that. But, he’s smart. He’s smart, and I think if he wants to do it, he absolutely could do it.”

Adam Copeland is recovering from a fractured leg that he sustained at May’s AEW Double or Nothing pay-per-view. He was stripped of the TNT Championship and he has since been on the sidelines recuperating. While Copeland feels better, a timeline for his return is still not clear.

Stephen P. New Hits Out At Jim Ross’ AEW Tenure, Tony Khan Responds

Earlier this week, former AEW talent Brent & Brandon Tate, as well as Kevin Kelly, filed a lawsuit against AEW, alleging defamation and misclassification. During a recent edition of his Grilling JR podcast, Jim Ross described the lawsuit as “frivolous” and expects the suit to not go as the claimants hope.

Kevin Kelly and those guys, they’ll run out of money before Tony Khan does. I don’t hold out much hope they’re going to get any kind of settlement, whatsoever.”

In response, Stephen P. New, who is representing the Tates and Kelly, fired back during an appearance on House of Kayfabe. New had strong words for Ross, who worked for years in WWE’s Talent Relations department.

“This is not a frivolous lawsuit. You’re part of the problem. You, Jim Ross, are part of the problem because you fed the guys in WWE as Talent Relations these crap contracts for a quarter of a century. You told these guys that it was the take-it-or-leave-it deal.”

New went on to say that Ross has been paid “a lot of money to do nothing for about five years now” by Tony Khan. On Twitter, the AEW President responded to New’s comments on Ross who has served as a commentator for the All-Elite promotion since the start.

This lawsuit claims that the Tates were defamed by Khan who claimed they were fired for no-showing events. Kelly alleges that he was defamed by Ian Riccaboni and that he has been struggled to find work since his AEW exit earlier this year. In the meantime, AEW will host its All Out pay-per-view this evening from the NOW Arena in Hoffman Estates, Illinois.

Stay tuned to SEScoops for all the latest on this lawsuit as well as live results from tonight’s AEW All Out pay-per-view.

AEW Hit with Lawsuit By Ex-Talent Over Defamation & Misclassification

Since launching in 2019, AEW has been home to several wrestlers and on-screen personalities, though not everyone is still with the company. Now, three former members of the All-Elite promotion are filing legal action against AEW, alleging defamation and misclassification.

Kevin Kelly and brothers Brandon and Brendon Tate filed the lawsuit on August 30 in the Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania Court of Common Pleas, The Wrestling News reports. The suit alleges that AEW misclassifies its wrestling talent as independent contractors rather than employees. If successfully challenged, this could have wide-reaching implications for the wrestling industry.

The Tate Brothers, better known to ROH fans as Dalton Castle’s ‘Boys,’ were released from AEW in April 2024 and their departure was first explained as due to budget cuts. Tony Khan later stated that the release was due to the brothers no-showing several events, a claim the brothers have denied. Now, this claim by Khan has become the basis for their defamation claim.

As for Kevin Kelly, he’s seeking monetary damages from AEW, alleging that the promotion breached his contract and has interfered with his ability to find work elsewhere. Kelly joined AEW in June 2023 and was fired from the promotion in March of this year. Kelly’s termination came about after a series of social media posts in which he spoke critically of AEW and Ian Riccaboni. The lawsuit also names Riccaboni, accusing him of defamation for allegedly linking Kelly to the far-right QAnon conspiracy theory on social media.

In a statement, attorney Stephen P. New, who is representing the trio alongside Benjamin Bear, said the following:

“I applaud the bravery of these plaintiffs in bringing this long-overdue action, challenging the misclassification of pro wrestlers as independent contractors instead of employees. We know we are in for a long, hard fight, but in the end, I believe justice always prevails.”

This lawsuit has the potential to bring about significant changes in wrestling, especially concerning how talent are classified and compensated. As of writing, AEW has not publicly commented on the lawsuit or the potential ramifications. We here at SEScoops will continue to follow this lawsuit for further updates.

How AEW Pulled Off (9/4) Dynamite’s Fiery Closing Segment

The feud between ‘Hangman’ Adam Page and Swerve Strickland has been one of AEW’s hottest angles in years, and that term became quite literal this week. On Dynamite, Page burned down the childhood home of Strickland which had been highlighted in the show, all while Swerve watched on in horror from the ring in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

This fiery climax to Dynamite has been praised by fans but AEW ensured that safety was a top priority during the scene. According to a report from Fightful Select, professional supervision was in place at all times while filming. Sources in AEW shared their happiness with how the angle was executed and the response it has garnered so far.

The burning of the house had been planned for months and AEW opted to coincide the segment with Strickland recently announcing a new deal with AEW. While Strickland reportedly had over half a year left on his deal, AEW saw an opportunity to bolster his storyline by having a new deal publicly confirmed, and for Strickland to mark the signing by purchasing his childhood home.

Plans for the burning of the home were kept a closely guarded secret in AEW, though there have been clues teasing the fiery segment ever since Page returned as a heel. Numerous wrestlers both in and out of the company reached out to Swerve to congratulate him on the purchase, unaware of what was to come. One wrestler told Fightful that Strickland ‘kayfabed’ them by thanking them after they congratulated him.

What’s to Come?

After committing arson on nationally broadcast programming, many would suspect that Page would be in jail or at least arrested for what unfolded on Dynamite. Fightful adds that there are “storyline reasons planned” as to why Page hasn’t faced any repercussions so far. The two will face off at this weekend’s All Out pay-per-view in a Steel Cage match that will reportedly headline the show. Stay tuned to SEScoops for all the latest on AEW All Out including live results and breaking news.

How AEW Foreshadowed Hangman Page Burning Down Swerve Strickland’s House

On this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite, ‘Hangman’ Adam Page took his heated rivalry with Swerve Strickland to a shocking new level, setting fire to Strickland’s childhood home. The dramatic moment left fans in disbelief though this act of arson is one fans should have seen coming for a long time.

Strickland and Page have been at war for months now and plenty has been said between the two former AEW World Champions. In a promo that now seems eerily prophetic, Page vowed that he would burn Strickland’s world to the ground, hinting at what was to come.

It’s not just what Page has had to say that should have led fans to predict the fiery conclusion to this week’s AEW Dynamite. Since turning heel, Page has used a new entrance theme, complete with a new video. Early into the theme, the image of a burning building can be seen. Later on, more fires can be seen.

The feud between the two former AEW World Champions will reach its climax this Saturday at AEW All Out 2024, where they are set to face off in a highly anticipated Lights Out Street Fight. Following this week’s episode of Dynamite, AEW President Tony Khan announced the match stipulation, ensuring that the company won’t be held accountable for whatever chaos ensues.

AEW All Out 2024 will take place on September 7, at Hoffman Estate’s NOW Arena. Stay tuned to SEScoops for the latest updates, including live coverage and results.

Will Ospreay Gives Kenny Omega His Flowers with a Passive-Aggressive Twist

AEW International Champion Will Ospreay praised Kenny Omega for his contribution to pro wrestling but that doesn’t change his personal feelings for him.

Ospreay told Kenny McIntosh of Inside The Ropes Magazine what Kenny Omega means to AEW. ‘The Aerial Assassin’ stated that Omega represents what AEW initially was. He became a huge star alongside the likes of The Young Bucks and Hangman Adam Page and helped set up AEW. While he respects Omega as a professional, it doesn’t mean they will become friends. He said:

“I think he represents the identity of what AEW initially was. He didn’t need the machine to make himself a big superstar, he made himself a star along with The Bucks, along with Hangman, and everyone else that helped to set up the company. There was an identity about AEW that was different to what American TV was accustomed to.

Those guys really set the bar for what wrestling could look like. It could have a different image and it could have a different identity. Especially when it comes to TV-style wrestling. Those guys completely shifted what it looked like to be TV wrestlers. He’s one of the best and I give him all the flowers in the world, but that doesn’t mean I like him [laughs]. Other than that, he’s a pr—k.”

Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay are two of the greatest wrestlers in pro wrestling. Over the years, they have been involved in feuds and even took personal shots. What could be labeled a dream match, the pair collided at Wrestle Kingdom 17. This marked Omega’s first match in NJPW since 2019 and ‘The Cleaner’ dethroned Ospreay to win the IWGP United States Heavyweight title.

Omega and Ospreay once again battled for the title at last year’s AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door. It was Ospreay who emerged victorious in a match that went on for 40 minutes and walked out of Scotiabank Arena as the IWGP United States Heavyweight Champion.

Will Ospreay is currently enjoying his AEW International title run after he recently reclaimed his title by beating MJF at last month’s AEW All In: London. ‘The Aerial Assassin’ will defend his title against Pac at this weekend’s AEW All Out pay-per-view. On the other hand, Kenny Omega is working hard to make his return to the ring.

Updated All Out 2024 Match Card

AEW All Out 2024 pay-per-view takes place on September 7 at NOW Arena in Chicago, Illinois. The card has been updated after this week’s edition of AEW Dynamite and you can check it out below:

  • AEW World Championship Match: Bryan Danielson vs. Jack Perry
  • AEW International Championship Match: Will Ospreay vs. PAC
  • AEW TBS Championship Match: Mercedes Mone vs. Hikaru Shida (Kamille is banned from ringside)
  • AEW World Tag Team Championship Match: Young Bucks vs. Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta
  • MJF vs. Daniel Garcia
  • Steel Cage Lights Out Match: Swerve Strickland vs. Hangman Page
  • AEW Continental Championship Match: Kazuchika Okada vs. Three More TBD
  • Chicago Street Fight: Willow Nightingale vs. Kris Statlander

New title matches were added to the AEW All Out 2024 card. As Kazuchika Okada successfully defended his AEW Continental Championship against Kyle Fletcher on the latest edition of AEW Dynamite, it was announced that The Elite member will put his title on the line in a four-way match at AEW All Out.

The other three competitors will be determined on the September 6 edition of AEW Collision. The Qualifying matches will feature Orange Cassidy taking on Bryan Keith, Mark Briscoe battling Lance Archer, and Konosuke Takeshita facing The Beast Mortos.

Mercedes Mone is set to defend her TBS Championship against Hikaru Shida at the upcoming pay-per-view but ‘The CEO’ won’t have the services of Kamille in the match. During Mone’s promo segment on last night’s Dynamite, Hikaru Shida and Christopher Daniels appeared on the screen. Daniels announced that Kamille will be banned from ringside for the title match at AEW All Out.

Meanwhile, The Young Bucks (Matthew Jackson & Nicholas Jackson) will defend their AEW Tag Team Titles against Blackpool Combat Club (Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta) at AEW All Out.

Last night, Claudio challenged the Young Bucks after The Elite members attacked Claudio, Yuta, and AEW World Champion Bryan Danielson. Claudio said that after winning the CMLL Grand Prix and the AEW Trios Titles with Yuta & PAC, the Swiss superstar wants the AEW Tag Team Titles. The match was soon announced on the show.

Hangman Page Burns Swerve Strickland’s Home In Fiery Dynamite Climax

The rivalry between Swerve Strickland and ‘Hangman’ Adam Page has quickly escalated into one of the most personal and intense feuds of 2024. As both men gear up for their highly anticipated showdown at AEW All Out 2024, Page took their animosity to an even more shocking level just days before the event.

On this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite, the two were scheduled to meet for a contract signing ahead of their Steel Cage match at the upcoming pay-per-view. However, despite his music playing and being introduced by Tony Schiavone twice, Page failed to appear.

On the titantron, a video feed showed that Page was at Strickland’s childhood home, which Swerve had recently purchased. The house had been highlighted earlier in the show, and Page took things to a new level of personal by setting the building on fire.

After AEW Dynamite went off the air, Tony Khan informed the live crowd that the match between Swerve and Hangman would be an unsanctioned lights-out steel cage match. The bout will be the pair’s first one-on-one encounter on pay-per-view since their extremely violent Death Match at AEW Full Gear in November 2023.

Strickland, not to be outdone, made a chilling revelation on social media following the episode, hinting at plans that could spell disaster for Page during their clash at All Out.

The war between Swerve Strickland and ‘Hangman’ Adam Page has been one of the hottest angles AEW has seen in years, and now that term has taken a much more literal meaning. Stay tuned to SEScoops for all the latest on both men, as well as breaking news and live results from this weekend’s All Out 2024 pay-per-view.

Adam Copeland Back To Training In The Ring With Sting’s Son

Adam Copeland is making strides toward his in-ring return following an injury, while Sting’s son, Steve Borden Jr., may be preparing for a debut of his own in the wrestling world.

Copeland, formerly known as Edge, has been sidelined since suffering a broken tibia during his steel cage match against The House of Black at AEW’s Double or Nothing over Memorial Day weekend. However, recent photos suggest the WWE Hall of Famer is back in the gym, training alongside notable names such as FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler), Darby Allin, and Sting’s son, Steve Borden Jr.

The workout session, captured in a photo shared by Harwood with the caption, “Album drops soon,” has sparked intrigue among fans. The sight of Copeland training with such a talented group hints at a potential return to action in the near future, while the presence of Steve Borden Jr. fuels speculation about his future in professional wrestling.

Borden Jr. first caught attention when he appeared dressed as his father, the iconic “Surfer Sting,” during Sting’s retirement match at AEW Revolution. Since then, the former college football player has expressed interest in pursuing a wrestling career. Darby Allin initially revealed this news back in May, adding further excitement about the younger Borden’s potential debut.

Sting himself also acknowledged his son’s aspirations during his speech at the Cauliflower Alley Club Reunion in Las Vegas, where he expressed pride in having both his sons, Garrett and Steve Jr., present for his farewell to the ring.

As for Copeland, he reflected on the injury, admitting that his high-risk dive onto Malakai Black during the cage match was a decision he now regrets. Longtime friend Hulk Hogan has echoed this sentiment, noting that Copeland didn’t need to take such a dangerous risk at this stage of his career.

Currently, FTR is involved in a mini-feud with The Grizzled Young Veterans as they build toward AEW All Out. Darby Allin, meanwhile, was last seen in action at AEW All In, where he lost a coffin match to Jack Perry.

AEW All In 2024 Attendance: How Many Fans Really Filled Wembley?

AEW returned to Wembley Stadium for a second consecutive year last month for AEW All In: London 2024. The pay-per-view featured an exciting card of matches from top to bottom, capped off by Bryan Danielson winning the AEW World Championship. Like its predecessor, there’s plenty of interest in how many fans were on hand for the company’s biggest PPV of the year.

WrestleTix reported that 53,393 tickets were distributed for PPV. Two days later, Tony Khan shared that over 50,000 tickets had been sold for the show. New information obtained by Wrestlenomics shows the actual number of fans who went through the turnstiles was significantly lower.

A representative from London’s Brent Council states 46,476 fans went through the turnstiles at All In 2024. Wrestlenomics adds, figure reflects a 36% decline from the prior year.

Fluctuating Figures

AEW announced an historic 81,035 were in attendance for AEW All In: 2023. A FOI request filed later that year uncovered the turnstile attendance was actually 72,265. While still very impressive, the discrepancy generated significant negative attention online. Unfortunately, Will Ospreay got the inflated number tattooed on his body. He expressed regret over the decision and said his mom, “f**king hates them bruv.”

AEW All In heads to Arlington, TX in 2025 and returns to London’s Wembley Stadium in 2026.

Ricochet Reveals Triple H’s Parting Words, Leaves WWE Return Open

After six years with WWE, Ricochet left the promotion in June 2024 and wasted little time in joining AEW. Now, the One & Only can be found appearing on Dynamite and Collision, but that doesn’t mean the door has been closed with his former employer.

On The Ringer Wrestling Show, Ricochet reflected on his final days as a WWE Superstar. The inaugural WWE Speed Champion was pleased to end his tenure on good terms, so much so that a return to WWE isn’t out of the question.

“Triple H had a little talk and he was just like, ‘Anytime…’ I think they were just trying to give me a good out that made me, you know, something that was open-ended.”

– Ricochet

Ricochet explained that WWE was aware that he didn’t intend to re-sign before his exit from the promotion was confirmed. Ironically, reports of Ricochet’s departure created a ‘buzz’ among fans before he actually left, so much so that WWE reportedly pitched him making a final appearance before he left. That ultimately didn’t happen, but the high-flyer was wisely able to leave WWE on positive terms, meaning that a return is not out of the question.

What’s to Come?

After debuting at AEW All In: London, Ricochet made his singles in-ring debut on last week’s Dynamite with a victory over Kyle Fletcher. Post-match, Will Ospreay appeared to confront Ricochet, teasing a rematch to their Battle of the Super Juniors instant classic. Before either man could go much further, PAC ambushed Ospreay, who he’ll face at All Out, and told Ricochet to get to the back of the line.

Ricky Starks Denies Refusing AEW Storylines

Ricky Starks’ recent absence from AEW programming has fueled speculation, but the wrestler is setting the record straight. He vehemently denies rumors that he’s been difficult or uncooperative, stating he’s “never turned down anything.”

“Enough is enough. Usually I don’t even speak on this but it’s tired. I never turned down anything, EVER. Just stop.”

– Ricky Starks

This comes on the heels of a social media discussion sparked by Kate from Fightful, who shared a clip of Starks’ strap match against Bryan Danielson. While praising AEW’s approach to the stipulation, the conversation took a turn when a fan accused Starks of self-sabotage.

Starks has been off-screen for months since a concerning DDT spot on Collision. Though initially feared injured, he’s reportedly healthy. AEW President Tony Khan, while acknowledging Starks’ talent and past matches, remained silent on his future with the company during the ALL IN media call.

This silence has only fueled speculation. Starks’ close friendships with WWE stars Cody Rhodes and Jade Cargill, coupled with reported WWE interest, have fans wondering if a move is imminent. Despite the swirling rumors, Starks seems to be enjoying his time away from the ring, sharing photos of vacations and time with friends on social media.

Whether his future lies in AEW, WWE, or elsewhere, one thing is clear: Ricky Starks is ready to wrestle, and fans are eager to see what’s next for the ‘Absolute’ one.

AEW All Out Updated Match Card: Mercedes Mone Gets An Opponent

Mercedes Mone will be defending her AEW TBS Championship against Hikaru Shida at the upcoming All Out PPV in a week’s time.

This week’s episode of Collision featured a fatal four-way match among Thunder Rosa, Serena Deeb, Queen Aminata, and Hikaru Shida to determine the next challenger for the former WWE star.

Shida got the upper hand early in the bout when she sent Rosa crashing into the other two women. Though she couldn’t maintain the momentum for long and Thunder Rosa came back with a chop.

This bout went on for almost 15 minutes. The ending saw Aminata turning a back body drop on Shida into a roll up to try and sneak a pin. The Japanese star countered with a forearm and an enzuiguri. She then followed it up with a Katana for the win.

AEW All Out Match Card
