All Elite Wrestling roars into Arlington, Texas for AEW All In: Texas TODAY on Saturday, July 12, 2025 at 3 p.m. ET/12 p.m. PT.
The biggest AEW show of the year, this special afternoon pay-per-view emanates from Globe Life Field and boasts one of the most stacked cards in AEW history. With multiple championships on the line and the best professional wrestling on the planet, All In: Texas is poised to be a wild ride.
In fact, the ride got a little more wild on Saturday early afternoon, as the TNT Championship match between Kyle Fletcher and Adam Cole had to become a 4-Way Match when Tony Khan was unable to medically clear Cole to compete.
Below is an in-depth preview of every announced match on the AEW All In: Texas card, with a look at how each match came to be in our full All In preview.

Jon Moxley vs. “Hangman” Adam Page — AEW World Championship Texas Death Match
A powder keg years in the making ignites on Saturday. AEW World Champion Jon Moxley has become a marauding, relentless, take-no-prisoners champion atop a city he loathes, and challenger “Hangman” Adam Page is riding into town for a reckoning. Page earned this title opportunity by winning the 2025 Owen Hart Foundation Cup, a triumph that reignited his redemptive quest to reclaim the gold. The Anxious Millennial Cowboy vowed to “free” the championship belt from Moxley’s clutches – quite literally, as Moxley has arrogantly kept the title locked in a briefcase for months.
With his Owen Hart Cup win in hand, Hangman made a passionate promise that at All In: Texas he will liberate that title and hold it high for the world to see. It’s a mission fueled by pride, resolve, and the hard lessons Page learned during two off-course years that saw him stray from the light. Now, after finding the path toward redemption, Hangman stands at destiny’s door once again.
Moxley, however, isn’t the type to go quietly – or cleanly. The Death Rider has carved a bloody path through AEW. His tenure as champion has been defined by violence and an almost nihilistic disdain for the rules of honor for those unfit for such things. Fittingly, the stipulation here is a Texas Death Match, a brutal no-holds-barred affair that can only end when one man cannot answer a 10-count. These two have a rivalry rooted in sheer brutality – their past encounters left each other scarred – so expect another bloody, personal war in Arlington.
Hangman Page pioneered the Texas Death Match as his signature bout during his first title run, and Moxley is a gladiator who positively thrives in carnage. As modern-day gunslingers of AEW, they will trade more than just metaphorical bullets; they’ll almost certainly trade barbed wire, chains, and potentially streams of blood. It’s the champion outlaw versus the redeemed cowboy, and by the end of this anticipated showdown, Globe Life Field might resemble a scene out of a Hunter S. Thompson fever dream – chaos incarnate and a moment of truth under the Texas sun.
“Timeless” Toni Storm vs. Mercedes Moné — AEW Women’s World Championship Match
In what has all the makings of the biggest women’s match in AEW history, “Timeless” Toni Storm is set to defend her AEW Women’s World Championship against the globe-trotting, belt-touting superstar Mercedes Moné. This fight is the culmination of two converging trends being painted across the history of professional wrestling: Storm’s dominant (and delightfully bizarre) reign as champion, and Moné’s meteoric trajectory since arriving in AEW.
The challenger punched her ticket to All In: Texas by winning the Owen Hart Cup tournament at Double or Nothing, defeating Jamie Hayter in the finals. That victory earned Moné – already the reigning TBS Champion – a shot at Storm’s title, immediately setting the stage for a marquee showdown of global proportions.
Storm insists that Moné has underestimated her, even calling Mercedes “all catchphrases and no substance” – the spray tan in a rainstorm to Toni’s genuine article. Moné, oozing confidence, retorted that while Toni may be Timeless, “I’m legendary” – an iconic champion who wants all the gold. In short, neither is lacking in self-confidence or accolades, and neither will give an inch.
Beyond the war of words, the stylistic matchup here is tantalizing. Toni Storm’s hard-hitting, smash-mouth offense (emphasized by those hip attacks that come with the force of a Hollywood wrecking ball) meets Mercedes Moné’s crafty, technical prowess and big-match experience. Moné has been on a championship tear across promotions, and she openly credits Storm as one of the reasons she signed with AEW – she’s wanted this match for years. Now it’s reality.
Their final face-to-face on Dynamite descended into a champagne-soaked confrontation, with Moné toasting to becoming “Seven Belts Moné” and Storm sharply rebuking her theatrics. It’s sportsmanship mixed with spectacle – a bit of Broadway in a bar fight. In the end, no amount of glitz could hide the intensity of this fight. For Mercedes Moné, this is a chance to affirm her legacy by conquering AEW’s top woman. For Toni Storm, it’s a chance to further etch her name in the record books and prove that Timeless isn’t just a moniker – it’s her entire, unconquerable being. When the smoke clears, whoever walks out with the Women’s World Championship will have earned a career-defining victory in the Lone Star State.
AEW Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada vs. AEW International Champion Kenny Omega — Winner Takes All Unified Championship Match
Kazuchika Okada versus Kenny Omega needs no exaggeration – it is and always has been a bona fide dream match as familiar as a cherished, impeccable memory, now moments away from the renewal of one of pro wrestling’s greatest rivalries, this time on American soil.
At All In: Texas, the two decorated champions collide to make history in a winner-takes-all unification bout. Okada comes in as the reigning AEW Continental Champion and Omega as the AEW International Champion, with the winner set to become the inaugural holder of a new Unified Championship.
The mere prospect of these two sharing a ring again has sent fans into orbit – and for good reason. Omega and Okada’s series of matches in Japan (spanning 2017-2018) achieved mythical status, setting an almost impossibly high bar. It’s been seven years since their last singles encounter, and each man has only grown in legend. Now they stand as elder statesmen of the craft, keen to prove who truly is the best.
The stage, stakes, and storyline could not be more grandiose. For Omega, a win would reconfirm him as one of the true standard-bearers of AEW, carrying forward both titles’ prestige. For Okada, victory would not only grant bragging rights in their personal rivalry but also mark his definitive place in AEW’s history books.
History, though, is a funny thing, given its precarious balance on the fickleness of time. These are not the fresh-faced prodigies of 2017, but battle-worn masters in 2025 with miles on their bodies and points to prove, two wounded deities of the ring testing how much magic they can still summon on demand. Before the day is out in Texas, one man will hold the union of two championships aloft – the newly crowned AEW Unified Champion – and the pro wrestling world will likely be buzzing about this match for years to come once more.
The Hurt Syndicate vs. JetSpeed vs. The Patriarchy — AEW World Tag Team Championship Triple Threat Match
The tag team division has turned into a three-way war, and at All In: Texas it’s every duo for themselves. The Hurt Syndicate, the imposing team of Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin (managed by MVP), will defend the AEW World Tag Team Championship against not one but two top duos: the high-flying upstarts JetSpeed (Kevin Knight & “Speedball” Mike Bailey) and the villainous father-son alliance known as The Patriarchy (Christian Cage & Nick Wayne).
This match was essentially set into motion by Christian Cage’s devious machinations and the champs’ own appetite for destruction. After turning back a challenge from the “Sons of Texas” at Double or Nothing, Lashley and Benjamin felt one team wasn’t enough to satisfy their hunger. Be careful what you wish for: now they face a three-way threat where they don’t even have to be pinned to lose their titles.
How did we get here? A tense encounter on Collision 100 saw Kevin Knight and Nick Wayne both jockeying for a shot at the champs – Knight wanted a singles bout with Shelton, and Wayne (quite the opportunist these days under Christian’s tutelage) inserted himself into the mix. That led to a chaotic triple threat between Knight, Wayne, and Benjamin, which Knight won in spectacular fashion by pinning Shelton Benjamin after a breathtaking UFO Splash. The win gave JetSpeed huge momentum and simultaneously infuriated the champions. Sensing an opening, Christian Cage swooped in with his trademark cunning, leveraging the situation to secure a title match for himself and his Prodigy without even breaking a sweat. By the end of the night, Tony Khan obliged the champs’ request: at All In, the Hurt Syndicate would defend against both JetSpeed and The Patriarchy in a high-stakes three-way showdown.
This 3-way promises to be absolute bedlam. You have Lashley and Benjamin – two legitimate powerhouses with decades of experience – basically trying to bully two teams at once. Together, they’ve been wrecking crews in AEW’s tag ranks, and they relish dishing out pain.
Opposing them, JetSpeed is the relatively recently-formed team capturing fans’ imaginations. Kevin Knight’s nickname is “The Jet” for a reason – his vertical leap and dropkicks defy gravity – and “Speedball” Mike Bailey is a lethal striker with educated feet, known for blending martial arts with high risk aerials. They’re young, hungry, and absurdly fast; their very presence guarantees an up-tempo, highlight-reel element in this match.
Then there’s The Patriarchy: Christian Cage, who might be the most conniving man in AEW, teaming with Nick Wayne, a supremely talented teenager Christian has both berated and, of late, supported as his protege. Christian has made it his goal to become the first father-and-son Tag Team Champions in AEW history, despite some of the questionable biology behind that. But we digress. In the ring, Nick Wayne adds quickness and daredevil offense, while Christian provides pinpoint intent coupled with exacting execution and an uncanny knack for being in the right place at the right time.
With three teams, expect frequent tags, broken pinfalls, and maybe even alliances of convenience. However, as the saying goes, no honor among thieves (or, perhaps, those trying to top them). One thing’s for sure: whichever team comes away with the win in this one will have fought through hell to get there.
UPDATED TNT Championship Match: Daniel Garcia vs. Dustin Rhodes vs. Kyle Fletcher vs. Sammy Guevara in a 4-Way Match
BREAKING NEWS: Tony Khan announced just minutes before All In: Texas that unfortunately, Adam Cole has not been medically cleared. As a result, the TNT Championship is now vacant, and it will be contested in a 4-Way Match between Daniel Garcia, Dustin Rhodes, Kyle Fletcher and Sammy Guevara — meaning we will have a new TNT Champion by the end of the night!
The Opps (Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs & Katsuyori Shibata) vs. Death Riders (Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta) and Gabe Kidd — AEW World Trios Championship Match
Three-on-three chaos is set to erupt as The Opps defend the AEW World Trios Championship against the Death Riders. This feud has been a violent struggle. The Opps – a formidable trio composed of Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs, and Katsuyori Shibata – have held the Trios Titles since mid-April, when they shockingly ripped the belts away from the Death Riders. That win ended the Death Riders’ prior stranglehold on the titles and established The Opps as the new kings of the hill.
But the Death Riders have never stopped coming. After losing the titles, their resolve only hardened – particularly for Claudio and Yuta, who took the title loss personally. They made it clear recently they wanted their championship back and would go through anything to get it. With Jon Moxley occupied with his world title defense and PAC injured, enter a wild-card savior of sorts: Gabe Kidd. The hard-nosed British up-and-comer (and a protege of Shibata from the NJPW Dojo days) has aligned with the Death Riders just in time to aid Claudio and Yuta in their quest.
If the past few weeks are any indication, this match is going to be an all-out slugfest. The personalities involved virtually guarantee it. On one side, Samoa Joe is a submission machine who loves to bully opponents and choke people out just for fun – and he’s been especially antagonistic toward the Death Riders, at one point leaving Yuta unconscious in the Coquina Clutch on Dynamite to send a message. Powerhouse Hobbs lives up to his name, bringing raw power and a nasty mean streak. And then there’s Katsuyori Shibata, the calm striker who can drop you with one precision PK (penalty kick) or twist you into knots on the mat.
But across the ring, Claudio Castagnoli is one of the most conditioned athletes in the world, a Swiss Superman who can uppercut your head off or swing a 300-pound man with ease. Wheeler Yuta, the fiery protege of the Death Riders, brings scrappiness and technical grappling acumen; he’s taken a lot of punishment from the Opps in recent months and is undoubtedly eager to dish some back. The X-factor is Gabe Kidd. A British brawler with a no-nonsense attitude, Kidd is as tough as they come – he earned his stripes in Japan as part of Shibata’s LA Dojo, so facing Shibata here is deeply personal and emotional. In fact, the teacher-student dynamic adds a layer to this fight: Kidd would love to prove he’s surpassed his mentor, while Shibata may know nearly every trick in Gabe’s book.
The stipulations are standard, but the hatred is anything but – at this point, these six men just want to tear each other apart. On the final Dynamite before All In, we saw exactly that: Yuta and Joe’s singles match devolved into a brawl with everyone, culminating in Kidd blindsiding Joe and all six throwing down. It took half the locker room to separate them. Simply put, animosity is the word of the day here.
Swerve Strickland & Will Ospreay vs. The Young Bucks — EVP Titles on the Line
This match isn’t just about wins and losses – it’s about power, control, and the very hierarchy of AEW. In an unprecedented high-stakes tag team grudge match, Swerve Strickland is teaming with Will Ospreay to take on The Young Bucks (Matthew & Nicholas Jackson). What’s on the line? Only the status of the Bucks as Executive Vice Presidents of the company and the World Title future of Swerve and Ospreay.
The Young Bucks have agreed to put their coveted EVP roles up for grabs; if Swerve and Ospreay win, the Jacksons lose their front-office positions, albeit not to be claimed by Swerve and Ospreay. They simply want to see the Bucks cut down to size. Conversely, if Swerve and Ospreay lose, neither of them can challenge for the AEW World Championship for an entire year. Simply put, it’s a potential career-altering scenario for all involved – the Elite front office vs. those seeking vengeance in a battle that could dramatically reshape … well, nearly everything.
Perhaps the most visceral symbol of this feud came just days ago: Swerve Strickland literally helmed a piece of heavy machinery and destroyed the Young Bucks’ personal limousine in the parking lot. Swerve flipped and smashed the Bucks’ limo to rubble, declaring that everything has been about control and he was taking it back.
It’s a noble goal, to be sure, if one that might cost everything simply for a chance to be accomplished, yet with nothing guaranteed.
Men’s Casino Gauntlet — Winner Earns a Shot at the AEW World Championship
Get ready for a cacophony of mayhem: the Men’s Casino Gauntlet match returns at All In, offering one man a future crack at the AEW World Championship. This match combines the endurance of a traditional gauntlet with the unpredictability of AEW’s Casino format. A field of competitors enters at timed intervals, and eliminations can happen via pinfall or submission at any time – meaning the contest could conceivably end before some entrants even join the fray. That looming sudden-death element ensures every moment counts and every entrant is on high alert.
Mark Briscoe will start the gauntlet at the coveted (or cursed) No. 1 position. Briscoe is beloved for his heart and toughness, and he’ll need both in spades to run the table from the opening bell. He won’t be lonely to start, though, because entering right after at No. 2 is none other than MJF – the brash former World Champion who is never shy about grabbing the spotlight.
Briscoe and MJF have been at each other’s throats over the past few weeks, especially after MJF crossed the line this week by bringing up Mark’s late brother Jay, claiming respect for the man but using that supposed respect to run down Mark instead. That was more than enough to cause Briscoe to want to beat the hell out of MJF, something he’ll have ample opportunity to do on Saturday before the rest of the Casino Gauntlet field enters the ring – if they get the chance to do so before one of these two men incapacitates the other long enough to score the win and the coveted title opportunity.
Women’s Casino Gauntlet — Winner Earns a Shot at the AEW Women’s World Championship
The women of AEW take center stage in a Casino Gauntlet match, with a shot at the AEW Women’s World Championship hanging in the balance. Former TBS Champion Kris Statlander secured the No. 1 entry spot via a slightly dubious qualifying win that saw the Death Riders cause a distraction on Willow Nightingale that enabled Statlander’s victory. Yet that takes nothing away from Statlander’s incredible strength and resilience. If anyone has the fortitude to run the table, it’s her.
Of course, starting first, Statlander will need to summon all her strength, athleticism, and tenacity to outlast every other entrant. And she’ll have to do it against a stacked deck. We know that Megan Bayne won a four-way match to claim the No. 2 spot. “The Megasus” is an imposing powerhouse in her own right who has left a trail of destruction everywhere she steps. Neither woman will back down in any way, shape or form, no matter how many women – or which competitors – end up striving to conquer the rest with such a precious prize at stake.
