General admission opens on Friday, 20<sup>th<\/sup> March. Like many Brit AEW fans, I am excited to make the pilgrimage again <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2024\/08\/26\/aews-all-in-the-legacy\/\" target=\"_self\">to Wembley. To experience the euphoria and connection<\/a> that\u2019s made this yearly August bank holiday trip a yearly highlight. Although months away, it\u2019s easy to get a fantastic booking!<\/p>\n<p>Compared to AEW\u2019s previous two trips to Wembley Stadium, I don\u2019t think it\u2019s hyperbolic to say that, creatively, AEW is in its strongest position: no identity crisis or difficulties created by disenfranchised talent.<\/p>\n<p>If AEW can maintain the momentum, consistency and clear sense of their own identity, history will not just be made. More than a victory for AEW in the larger <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2024\/06\/20\/aew-vs-wwe-in-the-uk-the-battle-for-britain\/\" target=\"_self\">Battle for Britain between themselves and WWE<\/a>, we could see perception again shifting in the alternative\u2019s favour.<\/p>\n<p>At its best, AEW encourages you to do fantasy booking. To consider the possibilities and combinations. To think next week, week-to-week and months ahead. When I write \u201cwhat-if\u201d articles, I know I don\u2019t care about getting things right\/wrong. Rather, exploring the possibilities by considering a promotion\u2019s current creative strengths, weaknesses and potential.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a look at how the current storylines and seeds planted might come to bloom this August. Let\u2019s speculate!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Faction Warfare <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The AEW World Trios Championships were introduced after the first peak of three-man units and factions. A potential second wave could rise. From newly formed groups like the current champions to established, seasoned acts, AEW could do a lot with their six-man belts.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Mistico &amp; JetSpeed vs The Don Callis Family - AEW World Trios Championship | AEW Revolution 2026\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FEPc3lKNcC8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>One of AEW\u2019s strengths is multi-layered feuds woven into multi-man matches that weave clashing styles and characters into chaotic PWG-style hot messes. Plus, interlocking stories between factions and individuals.<\/p>\n<p>What about a show opener pitting The Dogs against The Bang Bang Gang, The Rascalz and The Death Riders, with Marina Sharif joining Wheeler Yuta and Claudio Castagnoli? Add a post-match return from Jay White, setting up a feud with former Bullet Club leaders to lead into All Out. Remember, the turnaround between All In and All Out is short. Some matches will need more connective tissue for All Out.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Stepping Stone Matches for AEW All Out<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>What about a three-way number one contender&#8217;s match for the AEW World Tag Team Championship? Classic rivals Jurassic Express against FTR clash with a third set of dance partners? A wildcard, hard-hitting team of Samoa Joe and Katsuyori Shibata\u2014obstacles to add a new dynamic to a much-loved combination.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, a post-match angle could add further story to Jungle Jack Perry defending his AEW National Championship against Samoa Joe at All Out. Although this match could take place at All In, fans will chant \u201cCry Me A River\u201d or \u201cF### Punk\u201d regardless. Plus, character-wise, Perry\u2019s redemption started at All Out.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"AEW Dynamite HIGHLIGHTS: FTR vs Young Bucks vs JetSpeed vs Jurassic Express: 4-Way MATCH | 10\/29\/25\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GSQ89wcrbo4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, what if Kyle Fletcher, paralleling best friend\/enemy Will Ospreay, splits from the Don Callis Family? Siding <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2026\/02\/14\/how-aew-presents-love-without-judgement-or-boundaries\/\" target=\"_self\">with husband<\/a>, Konosuke Takeshita, at All Out, Fletcher will take on Callis\u2019 shinier new favourite boytoy, Andrade El Idolo. Yet, repeatedly attacked and outnumbered, help comes from a former rival. Mark Briscoe and The Conglomeration support The Protostar\u2019s in a multi-man match, an 8 to 10-man tag match.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of multiple-person matches, yes, but there will be plenty of big singles contests to come.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Brits get Their Moments<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>AEW could learn from WWE\u2019s failings and give the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/08\/27\/5-things-aew-should-do-to-make-all-in-2026-uk-wrestling-history\/\" target=\"_self\">home country talent pride of place to make All In 2026 its greatest UK-based event.<\/a> There are plenty of Brits on the roster who, keeping healthy, deserve their moment.<\/p>\n<p>For the AEW Women\u2019s World Tag Team Championships, The Brawling Birds either win or retain titles against a very credible team. Like, say, the current champions, The Divine Dominion. Jamie Hayter, especially given several significant injuries, deserves to bask in some in-ring glory.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The IInspiration vs The Brawling Birds | AEW Dynamite, 3\/4\/26\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/w1PeDyIY-II?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>However, elsewhere, it\u2019s perhaps time for a legend to go out in a blaze of glory. Nigel McGuinness returned to wrestling at All In 2024\u2019s Casino Gauntlet. Sporadic matches have been joyful and nostalgic. Yet the story\u2019s remained the same. Best exemplified at Forbidden Door 2025, McGuinness cannot keep up.<\/p>\n<p>Facing his Forbidden Door cornerman, Daniel Garcia, McGuiness could put over Red Death as the future of technical wrestling. In front of a potential record-breaking crowd, this full circle could be a tear-jerker.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of Casino Gauntlets, let\u2019s have just the one\u2014a men\u2019s version. Save the women for All Out. At All In Texas, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2026\/01\/12\/5-wwe-royal-rumble-tropes-aews-casino-gauntlet-match-should-avoid\/\" target=\"_self\">the long-term problem of making the event annual risks this incredible gimmick, suffering the same issues of tropes and stagnation as the Royal Rumble<\/a>. Booked like the 2024 All In version with thriller over filler, The Bastard PAC wins a guaranteed world title shot.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t panic about the women because\u2026<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The First Women\u2019s Anarchy in the Arena Match<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If there are two Anarchy in the Arena matches at Double or Nothing, you risk desensitization of the violence, the gimmick and similar issues of parity that impacted the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/25\/how-two-aew-blood-and-guts-matches-could-highlight-storyline-inequality\/\" target=\"_self\">build of the women\u2019s Blood and Guts match<\/a>. Plus, there is precedent for this match at Wembley. The first All In London featured an incredible sleeper of a layered <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2024\/09\/12\/aew-violent-storytelling-and-its-disturbing-splendor\/\" target=\"_self\">AEW violent splendour brawl.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Women&#039;s Blood &amp; Guts: MATCH HIGHLIGHTS! | AEW Dynamite, 11\/12\/25\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pbSxgdPUu8U?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Saving the AEW Women\u2019s World Championship match for All Out, The Triangle of Madness team with Athena and a heel Thunder Rosa fight The Babes of Wrath, Kris Statlander, a returning Hikaru Shida and Billie Starkz.

Yet, with clear character arcs, motivations and new storyline progression building on history, the outcomes would define the next months of AEW programming.<\/p>\n<p>Jon Moxley finally loses the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/12\/29\/how-aew-and-the-2025-continental-classic-saved-jon-moxley\/\" target=\"_self\">AEW Continental Championship, the title that has saved him, which will lead to his downfall<\/a>. Succumbing to Swerve Strickland, in a battle of brutality and assertion, this grudge match is personal. Swerve wants Moxley\u2019s title and scalp because, having beaten The Elite, Moxley is the last remaining reminder of the past in Swerve\u2019s house.<\/p>\n<p>Subsequently, this sets up All Out. For Moxley to be usurped by the Death Riders. Mirrors the trauma inflicted on Bryan Danielson.<\/p>\n<p>Another paralleling major title match and character arc, AEW International champion Kenny Omega, takes on Hangman Adam Page. Page needs to beat Omega. It\u2019s not directly about the championship. Page needs the win to stabilise himself symbolically. Emotion driven by whether\/if Page will turn heel, the loss to Omega drives more conflict in the Cowboy.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Toni Storm vs. Mercedes Mon\u00e9 | AEW Women\u2019s World Title Highlights | AEW All In: Texas 2025\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/f6KSl6rwIsg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Finally, Timeless Toni Storm faces Mercedes Mone, one year on. The winner becomes the number one contender for the AEW Women\u2019s World Championship. However, there\u2019s a character twist.

Only an ultra-modern version of the celebrity breakdown rather than retro, film-star-inspired madness.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Dream Contests<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>There must be some fresher dream match level contests.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been teased for years. They\u2019ve clashed in triple threats, tag team and multi-man matches, but finally, the singles match happens at All In. Kazuchika Okada takes on Konosuke Takeshita. No titles because the feud is about something deeper. It\u2019s about Okada\u2019s coasting and protecting finally crumbling in a way, The Rainmaker and Don Callis delayed at <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/07\/11\/match-point-kenny-omega-vs-kazuchika-okada-v-aew-all-in-texas\/\" target=\"_self\">All In Texas<\/a>.

The AEW World Tag Team Championships: Adam Copeland and Christian Cage vs. The Young Bucks. A clash between generational tag teams and brothers (one real and one kayfabe).<\/p>\n<p>Mixing nostalgia with the savvy and dark arts of Cage and Copeland (hopefully not too Brood-inspired), there\u2019s an intergenerational story to be told.
