AEW All In: London Match Card & Preview

AEW World Championship Match: Kenny Omega (c) vs. Will Ospreay

It was last month at AEW Redemption that this match became official. Ospreay had won the 2026 Owen Hart Foundation Tournament by beating Swerve Strickland at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door to earn his AEW World Title shot at All In: London – but whom would he face?


Omega became AEW World Champion for a second time when he beat MJF at Dynamite Beach Break, thanks to some timely help from Ospreay. In his first defense at Redemption, Omega retained the AEW World Title against TNT Champion “The Jet” Kevin Knight, only to be attacked by the Death Riders, who were seemingly trying to give Ospreay a significant leg-up on Omega. But when a chair was placed on Omega's neck, Ospreay ran out to stop it, refused Jon Moxley's order to put a bag over Omega's head, and cleared the ring of the Death Riders entirely to end any association with the group. There was a moment of celebration and appreciation between Ospreay and Omega when it was clear they’d finally get to face each other again, but this time for the biggest prize in the game at Wembley Stadium. The mutual respect was apparent, and the Montreal crowd loved every bit of it.


That was, until Omega yanked Ospreay off the top rope for a One-Winged Angel. Omega’s win might have made the match official, but putting Ospreay down in such dramatic fashion wound up being another reminder that these rivals have taken things to dangerous and violent levels in their previous encounters.


It certainly didn’t look like things were heading in that direction. For months after major events, we saw Omega and Ospreay share deeply personal thoughts with each other about aspirations, career mortality and hard truths. What began as Ospreay trying to pick Omega up after losing to then-AEW World Champion MJF at Dynasty turned into Omega and Ospreay questioning each other’s actions, with Moxley and MJF making sure to stir the pot along the way.


The simmering quickly boiled over when Omega brought up Ospreay’s son and only got worse when the two had a face-to-face about their prior matches. Over a decade ago, they met in Reseda, California, for Pro Wrestling Guerrilla, and Omega took that first encounter from the raw Ospreay. Ospreay chased Omega’s greatness to New Japan Pro-Wrestling and matched his rise to the top, as they each won the IWGP (World) Heavyweight Title. However, it was Omega’s return to NJPW in 2023 that put him across from Ospreay for the IWGP United States Championship at Wrestle Kingdom 17 in the Tokyo Dome. 


Omega said he was brought back for that match because Ospreay may have been at the top of NJPW, but he still wasn’t at Omega’s level. Omega proved himself correct by beating Ospreay to a bloody pulp without any remorse, but also without any help from Don Callis, who had Omega firmly in his camp at the time. They would meet again less than six months later at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door 2023, when it was Ospreay, not Omega, who was part of the Don Callis Family. Unlike Omega, Ospreay needed Callis’ help, which he received in the form of a screwdriver to spike Omega in the head before hitting him with a Tiger Driver and finishing him off with a Hidden Blade and a Stormbreaker to win back the IWGP United States Championship in another blood-stained affair. 


Ospreay admitted that win didn’t mean anything because of how he got it done, and it’s been haunting him every day for the last three years. Ospreay has the ultimate chance to exorcise those demons by becoming the first British male wrestler to win a world championship in the United Kingdom. 


And that’s the other thread in this match that also goes back over a decade for Ospreay. This past Wednesday on Dynamite in Glasgow, Ospreay detailed his journey and everyone who helped him along the way – all the years grinding through the UK independent scene, working a regular job at 6 a.m. after wrestling all weekend, learning from British legends, and the promises he intends to keep to his family this Sunday. This is Ospreay's dream, in front of his home country, his family, his mum, his wife and his son at Wembley Stadium. But he'll be facing the best version of Omega, a version who is clearly at the top of his game in the ring, while also showing his valuable experience as champion by making Ospreay fight battles between the ears. 


Omega wants to shut Ospreay down again, and he knows what that would mean for his already legendary legacy. And where would that leave Ospreay? There’s no intent from the home-field challenger to find out. Ospreay made it crystal clear: he’s coming to Wembley this Sunday and taking it all.


AEW Women's World Championship Match: Willow Nightingale (c) vs. Mercedes Moné

Can a Hall-of-Fame resume be tarnished by one opponent? If you ask Mercedes Moné, that’s all she thinks about, given her history with Willow Nightingale, and why she needs to beat Nightingale to win the AEW Women’s World Championship for the first time on Sunday. But that’s not all she wants. She wants to take Nightingale’s everlasting smile – the smile that has captured fans around the world and shined brighter than ever when Nightingale beat Thekla to win the AEW Women’s World Title at Redemption. 


For Moné, seeing that smile is a reminder of failure, loss and embarrassment. It was just over three years ago that Nightingale and Moné met for the first time. Nightingale had yet to find championship success in AEW and Moné was just three months into the next major phase of her career as part of NJPW. The two faced off for the vacant NJPW Strong Women’s Title in a tournament final, but toward the end of the match, Moné seriously injured her leg and Nightingale came away victorious in what was considered a massive upset. Moné didn’t return to the ring until her first match in AEW just over a year later, when she beat Nightingale to win the TBS Title at Double or Nothing 2024. Moné kept a death grip on the title for the next 19 months, but after 584 days as champion, she lost in the main event of New Year’s Smash on the last day of 2025 to … Willow Nightingale. That night also made Nightingale a double champion, as she came in as one-half of the inaugural AEW Women’s World Tag Team Champions. 


Moné would continue to defend her other championships around the world until she was finally left beltless. Moné disappeared from in-ring action for months, making a surprise return as the Wild Card in the 2026 Owen Hart Foundation Women’s Tournament, which, ironically enough, was due to Nightingale dropping out of the tournament (and relinquishing the TBS Title) due to a shoulder injury. Moné repeated as Owen Cup Champion in Nightingale’s absence, but she was once again upstaged by Nightingale when Willow made a surprise return in the Casino Gauntlet at Beach Break and won it before beating Thekla for the AEW Women’s World Title for the first time at Redemption.


The two have collided repeatedly on the road to All In, although in-ring action has recently been replaced by brawls and sneak attacks. Multiple interviews have disintegrated into fights, but it was this past Wednesday at Dynamite where Moné changed the complexion of this match. Moné targeted Nightingale's left hand in a vicious backstage attack, leaving the champion injured heading into Wembley, although Nightingale got a small measure of revenge by attacking Moné after her win over Isla Dawn last night on Collision.


Does Moné take home her first AEW Women’s World Title at Wembley along with Willow’s smile? Or will Nightingale keep smiling with yet another major victory over Moné?

AEW International Championship Match: “The Protostar” Kyle Fletcher (c) vs. “The Alpha” Konosuke Takeshita vs. “The Rainmaker” Kazuchika Okada

The Don Callis Family has had undeniable success, which Callis will proudly speak about until his scar bulges. What he hates to talk about is the drama that comes from top-tier athletes all wanting to be the best. Callis always chalks it up to competition since, no matter what, the Family wins. 


Konosuke Takeshita dealt with that drama from the minute Callis brought “The Rainmaker” Kazuchika Okada into the fold, and it all came to a head when he beat Okada at Double or Nothing back in May to win the AEW International Championship, only for the Don Callis Family, including a returning Kyle Fletcher, to turn on him immediately after. Fletcher then dethroned Takeshita for the title at Dynamite Beach Break.


Now, Fletcher defends against both Okada and Takeshita. Callis said as long as Okada or Fletcher wins, the Family wins, and that’s all that should matter to both men. Both Fletcher and Okada have been united in their hatred of Takeshita, but can their respective egos handle leaving empty-handed if the other comes away as champion? Will Takeshita be able to play the two against each other and win the AEW International Title for a third time?


Men’s Casino Gauntlet (Winner Earns a Future AEW World Championship Match Contract): Andrade El Ídolo #1 Entrant, MJF #2 Entrant

The Men’s Casino Gauntlet will see AEW National Champion Andrade El Ídolo enter at #1 and MJF, who is still carrying his Triple B title, at the #2 spot, which allows these two bitter rivals to fight it out before anyone else gets to the ring. With Andrade and MJF's history already boiling over before the match even begins, and names like Tommaso Ciampa, “Speedball” Mike Bailey, Komander, Nick Wayne, Mark Davis and the first AEW World Champion Jericho declared, this match should be a chaotic, unpredictable affair with a guaranteed shot at the AEW World Championship going to the victor!


AEW Continental Challenge Cup Final: Jon Moxley (c) vs. Nigel McGuinness

The inaugural AEW Continental Challenge Cup reaches the Final at Wembley Stadium. AEW Continental Champion Jon Moxley remained the defending champion throughout the entire tournament, with wins over “Jungle” Jack Perry, “Switchblade” Jay White, and most recently avenging a past loss in last year’s Continental Classic by choking out fellow Death Rider Claudio Castagnoli in the Semifinals last week on Dynamite. Moxley will be opposed by Nigel McGuinness, who declared for the tournament right to Moxley’s face while they were both on commentary earlier this month. McGuinness managed to fight through an opening-round ankle injury to beat Katsuyori Shibata, Hechicero and finally submit Kyle O'Reilly in his own right this past Wednesday in Glasgow to continue his unlikely and inspirational run to Wembley Stadium and the C3 Finals.


Moxley will have no qualms going after McGuinness’ injury, and McGuinness is well aware of what Moxley is capable of, so much like the rest of his matches, McGuinness will have to be resourceful. Does Moxley close out the C3 the way he started it and remain Continental Champion, or does McGuinness complete an improbable run in front of his home country and become the new AEW Continental Champion?

AEW World Tag Team Championship Match: Adam Copeland & Christian Cage (c) vs. Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson)

Christian Cage and Adam Copeland retained the AEW World Tag Team Championship at Redemption over the Death Riders' PAC and Claudio Castagnoli, only for the Young Bucks to confront them ahead of the announcement that the two legendary teams would meet for the first time at All In: London for the AEW World Tag Team Titles. While Cope has kept a mostly friendly demeanor with Matt and Nick Jackson, Cage has repeatedly questioned why there’s any reason to be civil. They’ve been uneasy allies in multiple matches since Redemption, and miscommunication has resulted in not-so-friendly fire, including this past Wednesday when all four men came to blows after Cope and the Bucks beat the Don Callis Family. 


The Bucks have shown plenty of respect for the careers and accomplishments of Cage and Cope, although they have had no problem pointing out the age difference between the two and suggesting the elder champions retire. Cage and Cope believe they are the best of any generation and have the accomplishments to back it up, but even they know that they need to beat the Bucks to truly stake that claim. The Bucks would make history with a fourth AEW World Tag Team Championship, and it would be quite a personal achievement to beat a pair of the best ever to do it. Who takes this long-anticipated tag team dream match? 


AEW Women's World Tag Team Championship Match: Divine Dominion (“Megasus” Megan Bayne and “Colossal” Lena Kross) (c) vs. Brawling Birds (Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor)

“Megasus” Megan Bayne and “Colossal” Lena Kross have been unbeatable in tag team competition, and the Brawling Birds enter with an undefeated record of their own. Divine Dominion have spent the lead-up to this match reminding the Birds of the dominance awaiting them, both verbally and physically, while Hayter and Windsor have made clear just how much home-country advantage means to them, taking it to the champions in multiple trios tags along the way. 


Something has to give when these two undefeated teams collide for the AEW Women's World Tag Team Championship in front of a crowd of rowdy fans expecting the Birds to bring it home. Can Divine Dominion keep their heads above the noise and notch their seventh championship defense in their toughest challenge to date? Or will the Birds leave the British crowd going bonkers?


TNT Championship Falls Count Anywhere Match: "The Jet" Kevin Knight (c) vs. Darby Allin

This rivalry was born at Double or Nothing and has now escalated to a match that could end anywhere in Wembley Stadium or beyond! After Darby Allin lost the AEW World Championship to MJF in the main event of Double or Nothing, Knight hit the ring and blindsided Allin with a UFO Splash while he was still strapped to a stretcher. Knight went on to align himself with the Don Callis Family and wound up getting sent off the top of Death’s Door when Allin’s backpack exploded in his face at Forbidden Door. Knight then beat Allin last month on Dynamite after using the TNT Title. Allin refused to relent and stayed coming after Knight until the Falls Count Anywhere match was made. 


Even before that, these two had history in the ring. It was Knight who took Allin out of the Continental Classic after just one match last year, although Allin was able to get one back when he successfully defended the AEW World Title against Knight in May. But that was well before Knight’s heinous choice at Double or Nothing. Much has changed since then, with Knight making it clearer by the week that he is only out to prove his greatness. Apparently, that greatness means burning Allin with pyro and nearly breaking his neck with a Coast-to-Coast dropkick to a chair. 


Knight started this all outside the ring, and now Allin wants to finish it there – or anywhere, in fact – to take the TNT Title. Does Allin get the ultimate payback he's been chasing since Double or Nothing, or does Knight prove once again that he'll do whatever it takes to keep his title?


The Buy-In: Trios Roulette Royale: AEW World Trios Champions “Hangman” Adam Page, Bandido & Brody King (c) vs. Bang Bang Gang (Jay White, Austin Gunn and Colten Gunn) vs. The Dogs (Gabe Kidd, David Finlay and Clark Connors) vs. The Conglomeration (Orange Cassidy, Roderick Strong and Kyle O’Reilly) vs. The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun and Toa Liona) vs. Death Riders (Claudio Castagnoli, PAC and Wheeler Yuta) vs. Wild Card Team

“Hangman” Adam Page challenged any trios team in AEW to meet him, Bandido and Brody King at Wembley Stadium, so at All In, we’ll see the first Trios Roulette Royale on the All In Buy-In! Joining Page and Brodido in the field are five sets of former trios champions: The Demand, who lost the titles to the current champs, Bang Bang Gang, The Conglomeration, the Death Riders and The Dogs. Plus, there will be a wild card team. Can Hangman, Bandido and King outlast the cavalcade of challengers, or do the AEW World Trios Titles change hands amid the chaos at Wembley?
