Approximately 45,000 fans are descending on London’s Wembley Stadium this Sunday for AEW All In, where hometown hero Will Ospreay challenges defending world champion Kenny Omega for the AEW World Championship in what’s being billed as the biggest main event of the year. This isn’t just another match; these two are tied in their modern series, with each holding one win for the IWGP United States heavyweight championship in their previous encounters. Sunday is where one of professional wrestling’s biggest prizes gets settled.

The Stakes at Wembley Are Beyond Massive

This year’s All In is AEW’s biggest pay-per-view event, the fourth in the company’s history, and it’s bringing some serious heat. What started as an independent show back in 2018 laid the groundwork for AEW itself, and it has consistently delivered incredible moments and drama. This Sunday, we’ve got nine matches announced, featuring almost every champion in the promotion alongside some of wrestling’s all-time biggest stars. You’ve got Adam Copeland and Christian Cage, who you know as Cope & Cage, defending their World Tag Team Championship against The Young Bucks. Then Mercedes Moné is stepping up to challenge Willow Nightingale for the AEW Women’s World Championship. Jon Moxley is putting his Continental Championship on the line against Nigel McGuinness in the Continental Challenge Cup finals.

Champions on the Line and Chaos Guaranteed

It’s not just about the veterans either; homegrown stars are making the walk through Wembley, ready to make their mark. Willow Nightingale, Kyle Fletcher, and Kevin Knight are all defending their respective titles. Kyle Fletcher is defending the International Championship against Konosuke Takeshita and Kazuchika Okada in a three-way dance that could go anywhere. Kevin Knight defends the TNT Championship against Darby Allin in a brutal Falls Count Anywhere match. And don’t forget the critically acclaimed Casino Gauntlet match featuring MJF, Andrade El Ídolo, Tommaso Ciampa, Mark Davis, Chris Jericho, and one TBA competitor all fighting for a shot. Even the Women’s World Tag Team Championship is on the line, with Divine Dominion’s Megan Bayne and Lena Kross taking on The Brawling Birds, Alex Windsor and Jamie Hayter.

You can catch all this action live on Sunday, August 30th. The Buy-In pre-show kicks off at 11:30 a.m. ET, with the main pay-per-view starting at 1 p.m. ET. You won’t want to miss a second, and you can watch it live on HBO Max, Prime Video, DAZN, PPV.com, YouTube, or DIRECTV. Get ready, because Wembley is about to explode with some serious wrestling history!
