Venue: 2300 Arena, Philadelphia, PA
1. Brutal Main Event Sparks Injury Angle
In an explosive All-Star 8-Man Tag match, AEW World Champion “Hangman” Adam Page, Kenny Omega, and JetSpeed (Kevin Knight & “Speedball” Mike Bailey) took on TNT Champion Kyle Fletcher, Josh Alexander, and The Young Bucks. The clash turned chaotic when, after the bell, Fletcher delivered a vicious brainbuster to Omega through a steel chair and another through a table. Medics rushed in as Omega was stretchered out with a neck brace, suggesting he’ll miss the upcoming All Out pay-per-view while solidifying Fletcher as a new top contender.
2. Mayhem with Darby Allin and Gabe Kidd
The night opened with Gabe Kidd calling out Darby Allin, quickly escalating into a war zone brawl with interference from Death Riders, The Opps, HOOK, and Willow Nightingale. In a shocking backstage angle, Allin subdued Kidd with a chemical-soaked rag, zipped him into a body bag, and hauled him away by pickup truck—setting the stage for ongoing conflict and leaving Kidd’s fate uncertain.
3. Mercedes Moné Barely Survives Tough Test
“Nine Belts Moné” defended her TBS Championship against Alex Windsor in an intense match. Windsor momentarily had the upper hand, forcing Moné to tap out outside the ring, but Moné ultimately pulled off a roll-up to retain her title. Her arrogance post-match led to a scuffle that brought back former AEW Women’s World Champion Riho, teasing the next challenger ahead of All Out.
4. Under Card Highlights and Feud Developments
Mark Briscoe vs. Lance Archer: Briscoe overcame the Murderhawk Monster with a Froggy Bow after a brutal exchange, earning momentum ahead of an anticipated showdown with Konosuke Takeshita.
Brodido Retains Tag Titles: Bandido and Brody King, collectively known as Brodido, successfully defended the AEW World Tag Team Championship against Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta (The Death Riders), thanks to Darby Allin’s interference.
Trios Match Confirmed for All Out: Following a tense promo, Ricochet and the Gates of Agony demanded a match against The Hurt Syndicate (Lashley, Benjamin, MVP). MVP accepted on behalf of his team, marking his in-ring return at All Out, alongside the TBS title rematch (Moné vs. Riho) and FTR vs. Copeland/Cage.
