AEW World title match announced for All Out

Posted on by Bryan Rose

The AEW World Championship match for All Out has been confirmed.

Christian Cage will challenge for the title on September 5 after it was confirmed on tonight’s episode of Dynamite. Christian is currently number one in the AEW World title rankings and was mentioned as a potential contender for Omega’s title on last week’s Dynamite, when he defeated The Blade in a singles match.

This will not be Cage and Omega’s first encounter. After it was confirmed that Cage will receive his AEW World title shot at All Out, he confronted Omega after he won a six-man match with The Young Bucks, defeating Dante Martin and The Sydal Brothers. Cage told Omega that while they will wrestle at All Out, he talked to Impact Executive Vice President Scott D’Amore and Tony Khan, and it was agreed that Omega would defend the Impact World title against Cage in the opening match of this Friday’s debut edition of Rampage.

All Out, along with that week’s Dynamite and Rampage, will be held at the NOW Arena in Hoffman Estates, Illinois.

The much-anticipated duel between AEW World Champion Kenny Omega and Hangman Page will not be happening at All Out, according to Dave Meltzer in this week’s Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

“At one point, it was the plan, but plans change,” he wrote.

Last Wednesday’s ten-man elimination tag team match for both a World and Tag Team Title shot for Page and the Dark Order if they could defeat The Elite was expected to set the match into motion. However, Omega and the Young Bucks defeated Page in a finish that Meltzer said “was designed to shock people.”

Meltzer pointed out how the commentary team was pushing for Christian Cage to possibly get a shot after Page lost and with the Chicago-based pay-per-view just over a month away, the direction for that match will need to play out soon if that’s to be the headliner.

“They’ve done angles to where they should do Cage and Eddie Kingston both against Omega, but Christian feels to me like a match for a major Dynamite and Kingston could headline a PPV but with the additions maybe it’s a TV match as well,” he wrote.

Omega last defended the title on the final Saturday AEW Dynamite in Jacksonville, Florida, defeating Jungle Boy on June 26th.

Posted on by Josh Nason

AEW All Out has sold out.

After a Thursday presale that saw nearly all the seats inside Chicago’s NOW Arena get purchased, the remaining tickets available Friday were also snatched up quickly, ensuring a sellout of nearly 11,000 for the Sunday, September 5th event.

This will be the third All Out in company history and the second to be held at the same venue, formerly known as the Sears Centre. Last year’s show was held in Jacksonville, Florida, due to the pandemic.

AEW will hold three shows at the same venue that week, beginning with Dynamite on Wednesday and then Rampage on Sunday. As of now, there are still a good number of seats available for both shows. While not yet announced, it’s assumed there will be some sort of fan festival on Saturday.

The only thing announced for All Out is a women’s Casino Battle Royale. Based on the current direction, Kenny Omega is likely to defend his AEW World title against Hangman Page in the main event.

AEW notes: Women’s Casino Battle Royale at All Out, roster expansion

Posted on by Josh Nason

During his traditional pay-per-view preview appearance on AEW Unrestricted, president and head booker Tony Khan said the Women’s Casino Battle Royale will return at this September’s All Out.

He dropped the news while discussing the men’s version that is part of this Sunday’s Double or Nothing.

The first and only women’s version was held at 2019’s All Out and was part of the pre-show. Nyla Rose won the 21-woman match, eliminating Britt Baker to advance to the inaugural Women’s Championship match against Riho on the first-ever Dynamite.

In talking about the future and with the new one-hour Rampage show debuting in August, Khan said a “huge expansion” is imminent for AEW which includes expanding the roster. He also put over AEW Games becoming bigger as well.

Khan put over Double or Nothing hard, promising it would be one of the best things they have ever done, will have surprises, and that it will be a sold out show at Daily’s Place in Jacksonville, Florida.
