Buy-In Action Tag Team Action

The Rascalz and Lio Rush defeated Action Andretti, Hook, Anthony Bowens, and Katsuyori Shibata

A fun, energetic match that highlighted both teams, especially the popular Rush, this was a great tone-setter as fans continued to arrive at the stadium. The babyfaces went over, too, with the look on Andretti's face after the match suggesting that he and Rush are headed toward a showdown over his Ring of Honor Television Championship.

Grade: C+

Kris Statlander and Harley Cameron defeated Skye Blue and Julia Hart

This was a short, formulaic match featuring Cameron fighting from underneath before making the tag that decided the outcome. Statlander proved the difference as she drove Hart down with Saturday Night Fever for the win. Statlander and Cameron are very popular, but the Triangle of Madness is a legitimate team that would have benefited from winning here.

Grade: C

The Hurt Business and Doom and Boom defeated Shane Taylor Promotions

A high-energy bout down the stretch showcased all eight competitors and had the fans more invested than they were earlier in the bout. The babyfaces predictably went over, with Lashley putting Charlie Bravo down with the Dominator for the win. There was an interesting booking decision late, with Trish Adora and Christyan XO distracting Bryce Remsburg, which allowed Big Justice to interfere and join his dad for a double spear spot. They remained on the apron when it was clearly hurting their charges, which made little sense.

Grade: C+

Buy-In Championship Matches

TBS Championship Match: Persephone defeated Maya World to win the title

A good, competitive match, but it never had the audience completely invested as one would hope given the recent stature of both women on AEW TV. This was a solid showing by World, but her opponent stood out, thanks to her in-ring work and the ability to tell the match's story through facial expressions and body language.

Late in the match, a masked and hooded individual shoved the It Girl from the top rope, allowing Persephone to win the match and the title. After the match, Dr. Britt Baker revealed herself to be under the mask in the night's first big moment, of which there are expected to be several.

Grade: B-

Trios Roulette Royale for the AEW World Trios Championship

Order of entry: Bang Bang Gang, The Dogs, The Demand, The Conglomeration, The Death Riders, Hangman Page and Brodido, Swerve Strickland and The New Level

Austin Creed and Kofi took things to a New Level Sunday in London, arriving in AEW as the partners of Swerve Strickland in the Trios Roulette Royale to a thunderous ovation. 

Their arrival was only one highlight of a match that featured several stories and rivalries intertwined throughout, including that of the Bang Bang Gang and The Dogs, as well as Strickland and Page. The elimination of the latter by Ricochet guaranteed new champions.

Strickland and New Level would pay off their debut outing by eliminating the competition and claiming the titles, capping off an excellent match that started slowly, with too many wrestlers in the ring at once, but improved with every passing minute, culminating in a crowd-pleasing moment and a career-defining one for Creed and Kofi.

Grade: B+

AEW Women's World Tag Team Championship Match: Brawling Birds vs. Divine Dominion

All Elite Wrestling

Last Time in Action: Divine Dominion and Persephone defeated Maya World and The Brawling Birds (Dynamite, August 26)

Megan Bayne and Lena Kross faced the toughest test of their reign as champions on Sunday, battling England's own Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor in the main show's opening contest.

The heels isolated Hayter early, wearing her down in their corner of the ring. A pair of clotheslines allowed the former world champion to fend off the champions and make the tag to Windsor, who spurred the babyface comeback.

As the action rolled on, each team took turns unloading their arsenals, neither able to keep the other down. The heels teed off on Hayter, driving her to the mat with a double chokeslam, but Windsor broke up the pin.

The challengers survived the punishing offense of their dominant opponents and finished Kross off with Two Birds, One Stone for the win and the titles.

This was a strong match with some great tag team work from both teams and a finish that saw the right team take the titles.

Hayter and Windsor beat the seemingly unbeatable, but who of the other teams in the division stand a realistic shot at dethroning them?

Result

The Brawling Birds defeated Divine Dominion to win the titles

Grade

B

Top Takeaways

• Kross and Bayne are a success story as a team thrown together that managed to develop into a great tandem, with strong chemistry, who carried the women's tag division on their backs for five months.
• Hayter and Windsor getting the home country win was a great moment for them and pays off what has been a string of great performances. They could be the anchor piece for the division moving forward.

Continental Cup Final for the AEW Continental Championship: Nigel McGuinness vs. Jon Moxley

Last Time in Action: Jon Moxley defeated Claudio Castagnoli (Dynamite, August 26); Nigel McGuinness defeated Kyle O'Reilly (Dynamite, August 26)

The AEW Continental Championship and victory in this year's Continental Challenge Cup tournament were on the line as London's own Nigel McGuinness battled Jon Moxley in the second match of the main card.

Moxley targeted his opponent's lower leg and ankle while McGuinness worked over his opponent's left arm. The challenger flattened the champion with a Tower of London, rocked his opponent with a tandem of lariats, then escaped the bulldog choke and applied the London Dungeon submission hold.

None of it was enough to keep the Death Rider down or force a tapout.

Instead, Moxley absorbed everything thrown at him by the former Ring of Honor world champion and trapped him in an ankle lock. McGuinness showed tremendous grit and toughness as he fought through the pain to come within an inch of the ropes, only for the suffering to be too great to overcome. He tapped out, awarding the match and the Continental Cup to Moxley.

The best match of the night to this point, it featured some excellent grappling from McGuinness, and Moxley looked competent wrestling that style of match. He may not be the great worker that some believe him to be, but outwrestling McGuinness in Wembley is an enormous feat. Hanging with the measuring stick for toughness in AEW is a testament to the runner-up, too.

Result

Moxley defeated McGuinness to retain the title

Grade

B+

Top Takeaways

• Moxley survived a Tower of London before trading LeBelle Locks with his opponent, all while Bryan Danielson called the action on commentary, in a nice ode to the former world champion.
• McGuinness countered a sunset flip, stacking Moxley high on his shoulders in an homage to Bret Hart vs. British Bulldog from SummerSlam 1992, a match the challenger watched in the same Wembley Stadium as a child. A great callback.

AEW International Championship Match: Konosuke Takeshita vs. Kazuchika Okada vs. Kyle Fletcher

Last Time in Action: Kyle Fletcher defeated Mike Bailey (Dynamite, August 5); Kazuchika Okada, Hechicero, and Kevin Knight lost to Corazon de Leon, Darby Allin, and Mistico (Dynamite, August 5); Konosuke Takeshita defeated The Beast Mortos (Collision, August 26)

"Protostar" Kyle Fletcher defended the AEW International Championship against "Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada and Konosuke Takeshita in a Three-Way Dance.

The Don Callis Family further disintegrated when two miscommunications led to Okada and Fletcher taking each other out. The latter followed with a lariat of his own to The Rainmaker, resulting in Callis noting on commentary, "We're all sportsmen in the Don Callis Family."

Takeshita delivered a Powerdrive Knee to Fletcher, followed by Raging Fire, but Okada broke up the pin and landed the Rainmaker to his former partner-turned-enemy. Fletcher broke that pin up to save his title reign.

Moments later, Fletcher fired up, brought Takeshita from the top rope and appeared to be on his way to victory. Instead, Okada appeared and flattened his DCF stablemate with the Rainmaker to win the match and the title.

After the match, Fletcher awarded Okada the title, then reluctantly raised the victor's hand.

This a predictably great match. The talent involved nearly guaranteed as much. Fletcher continued to showcase the skills that have made him the brightest young star in AEW. Ditto, Takeshita.

The finish was interesting in that Okada distinctly chose to pin Fletcher, even though he easily could have pinned the other opponent. His actions after the match, demanding The Protostar raise his hand, make one think that Fletcher may be on his way out of the faction.

Result

Okada defeated Fletcher and Takeshita to win the title

Grade

A

Top Takeaways

• Fletcher hit the ring dressed as Donquixote Doflamingo from One Piece. Great pop culture reference and one that fit his pink color scheme.
• Takeshita followed Okada up, then delivered a bridging German suplex to Fletcher, for a creative double-pin spot.
• Okada is delightful as the grinning, disingenuous, braggadocios villain.

Casino Gauntlet Match to Determine the No. 1 Contender

All Elite Wrestling

Order of Entry: Andrade El Idolo, MJF, Nick Wayne, "Speedball" Mike Bailey, Tommaso Ciampa, Chris Jericho, Mark Davis, Komander, Mistico, Daniel Garcia, Jungle Jack Perry

Andrade El Idolo earned a future shot at the AEW World Championship by way of his win in the Casino Gauntlet Match Sunday in London.

He overcame an early battle with rival MJF, as well as the arrivals of former world champions and young stars with plenty to prove, to capture the title in an entertaining match. Still, it lacked the overall quality of other matches of its kind.

One thing the contest did do was play up the idea that if a fall was scored before all competitors could enter the ring, those wrestlers would miss out on an opportunity to compete for the top prize in the company.

That is exactly what happened, according to the commentary team, as El Idolo delivered MJF's Heat Seeker to Nick Wayne for the win and title shot.

Some will argue this could have been better served as a one-on-one match between Andrade and MJF and while they may have a point, this format allowed one to win without the other suffering an unnecessary loss. Even better? That singles match can take place at a later date, on a show where it will not be overshadowed by other main events.

Result

El Idolo won

Grade

B-

Top Takeaways

• The unannounced time intervals allowed for more unpredictability and creative convenience. It also felt cheap in that it adapted the rules to fit the stories AEW wanted to tell rather than the other way around.
• This might have been the most inconsequential appearance by Jericho on an AEW pay-per-view ever.
• The meteoric rise of El Idolo in this return to AEW has been refreshing for his fans, who did not have a lot to be excited about in the last handful of years.

AEW World Tag Team Championship Match: Cope and Cage vs. The Young Bucks

Last Time in Action: Adam Copeland, Christian Cage, and The Young Bucks lost to The War Raiders (Dynamite, August 5)

Two of the most influential tag teams in pro wrestling history battled in a generational dream match as Adam Copeland and Christian Cage squared off with The Young Bucks, the AEW World Tag Team Championship on the line.

Cope and Cage worked as the aggressors for the majority of the match, capitalizing on a neck injury to Matt Jackson and a leg injury to Nick. Ever the resilient competitors, though, the Bucks relied on nonverbal cues and their trademark creative offense to combat their opponents.

The champions broke out the Twist of Fate, ala the Hardy Boyz, and the 3-D, from the Dudley Boyz, to down the opposition. The Bucks recovered and uncorked a pair of superkicks, then teased a BTE Trigger, only to throw Cage in the path of Copeland's spear.

Cope blocked a Meltzer Driver with a spear to Nick, followed by another to Matt, but the champions could not deliver the victory. A cheap shot from Captain Charisma, with a ratchet he grabbed from ringside, earned the champions the underhanded victory.

After the match, the Motor City Machine Guns made their way to the ring, followed quickly by FTR. New Level made their second appearance of the night, joining the fray as AEW showcased the immense depth and talent of its tag team roster.

The match itself was good, though it fell short of the greatness one might expect based on the talent involved. The Bucks worked at a fast and furious pace, and Cope and Cage did their best to keep up with it. The result was somewhere between a very good and excellent match-up.

The champions worked as the aggressors and ultimately cheated to win, suggesting that we may see the Rated R Superstar join his longtime friend on the dark side as a heel. It would be an interesting reversal of roles for the Hall of Famer.

Result

Cope and Cage defeated The Young Bucks to retain the titles

Grade

B

Top Takeaways

• Copeland and Cage have been remarkable in their runs with AEW, but watching them try to keep up with the lightning-quick Bucks suggested that as great as they have been, that might be a test that is too great for them to pass.
• The idea that AEW has so many iconic teams of the last two decades on its roster is astonishing and sets the stage for an unparalleled run of tag team excellence in the near future.

Falls Count Anywhere for the TNT Championship: Darby Allin vs. Kevin Knight

Last Time in Action: Darby Allin, Mistico, and Corazon de Leon defeated Kazuchika Okada, Hechicero, and Kevin Knight (Dynamite, August 5)

Darby Allin shed blood almost immediately on Sunday after Kevin Knight's TNT Championship belt clipped him in the back of the head. It was not a particularly surprising development given the challenger's involvement in the match.

Neither was the pair of dives onto the commentary table moments later that threatened the well-being of both men. A Code Red from the top rope sent Knight into a pile of chairs, and a second landed the heel flat on the weapons.

Looking to slow the champion's momentum, the Don Callis Family's Brian Cage and Jake Doyle arrived, the former back body-dropping Allin onto a collection of chairs set up in the ring. When they successfully taped Allin's hands behind his back, Steven Borden (Sting's son) rushed the ring to make the save.

Cage put Borden through a table and continued to brutalize Allin until Sting made his presence felt, marching to the ring with his trademark baseball bat, ready to wreck the heels. He did just that, then tossed the bat to Allin and flattened Knight with a Scorpion Death Drop.

Borden dove off a ladder, wiping out the heels and leaving Allin and Knight to settle their business. The fight spilled to the stage, where Allin drove his opponent through it with a death-defying Coffin Drop. As medics helped the champion out on a stretcher, Allin dove on him one last time and pinned him to win the title.

Result

Allin defeated Knight to win the title

Grade

B+

Top Takeaways

• This was your wild, chaotic match of the night and refreshingly, it did not feature an abundance of blood or overly complicated weapons spots. It made sense, toned down the violence, but still effectively told the a tale of revenge for Allin. Great stuff.
• The stage bump from Allin was jaw-dropping and absolutely belongs on a highlight reel for both the new champion and the company.

AEW Women's World Championship Match: Willow Nightingale vs. Mercedes Mone

Last Time in Action: Willow Nightingale defeated Maya World (Collision, August 22); Mercedes Mone defeated Isla Dawn (Dynamite, August 26)

The lengthy rivalry between Willow Nightingale and Mercedes Mone wrote its latest chapter in London, the culmination of the best storyline on the road to All In.

Nightingale was relentless from the opening bell, taking the fight to Mone and ensuring the challenger was reeling early. She wiped the CEO out with a senton on the floor, swung her into the guardrail, and busted the heel open before Mone finally targeted the champion's broken hand.

Nightingale fought back, delivering an avalanche Spanish Fly from the top rope, an uncharacteristic high-risk maneuver for the champion. Mone recovered and applied the Statement Maker. The babyface powered out and delivered a Death Valley Driver into the corner.

Mone, fighting from underneath, sent Nightingale face-first into the turnbuckle that the heel had exposed earlier in the match. She delivered the Money Maker from there, but the resilient heroine kicked out at two.

Nightingale pounced Mone into referee Aubrey Edwards, leaving the match without an official. The challenger capitalized, attacking her opponent's injured hand and removing the cast protecting it. Nightingale responded, whipping Mone with the championship belt and hitting her with a chair.

A powerbomb onto the mat and another into the aforementioned steel turnbuckle left the challenger reeling. Mone countered a Doctor Bomb from the top rope into a hurricanrana to preserve her championship hopes.

She reapplied the Statement Maker and trapped Nightingale's arm around her own neck, putting the babyface to sleep. The official called for the bell and a new champion was crowned.

This was an extraordinary wrestling match that felt very much like a marquee, main event contest. Were it not for the star-studded match at the top of this card, this easily could have been the show-closer, and it would have sent the fans home happy.

Super storytelling, even better physicality, and a finish that made sense propelled this one to best match of the night honors to this point in the show.

Result

Mone defeated Nightingale to win the title

Grade

A+

Top Takeaways

• The fairy tale, storybook entrance for Nightingale was amazing. As was her unique means of dropping confetti.

• The call back to Mone's epic encounter with Bayley, who also fought through a hand injury in their NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn classic, was a great touch. Stomping Nightingale's hand puts over the ruthlessness of the champion and her bloodied smile as she raised the title overhead made for a great visual.

AEW World Championship Match: Will Ospreay vs. Kenny Omega

Last Time in Action: Will Ospreay, Henare, and Francesco Akira defeated The Don Callis Family (Dynamite, August 19); Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks defeated The Don Callis Family (Dynamite, August 19)

Two of the most important wrestlers of the last decade squared off in the concluding match of AEW All In, as Kenny Omega defended his world title against Will Ospreay in the latest epic encounter.

Omega toyed with Ospreay early, but that would not be the case as the match reached its midway point. Recognizing the threat to his title that Ospreay was, Omega blasted him in the face with one of the commentary team's monitors, then delivered a powerbomb from the table to another table to the bloodied hometown hero.

As Ospreay made it back to the ring to break the count-out, Omega rocked him with a V-Trigger, then argued with referee Paul Turner as he became more unhinged with every passing moment.

Back in the ring, the champion delivered a V-Trigger in the corner, hoisted Ospreay on the top rope, rained down with a few elbows to the shoulders and neck, then added a German suplex from the middle rope for a two count.

After several minutes of enduring pain and punishment, the crimson-masked Ospreay finally unleashed a Hidden Blade to create separation and give him a chance to mount a comeback. Omega revealed blood from a cut above his eye as the two combatants traded blows.

Driven by adrenaline, Ospreay answered consecutive V-Triggers with a powerbomb, followed by a Styles Clash, for another near-fall. Omega recovered, delivered several more V-Triggers, and put his opponent down with the Tiger Driver 91. He added the One-Winged Angel, but Ospreay kicked out at two, to the delight and awe of the AEW faithful.

Ospreay delivered a Tiger Driver 91 of his own, driving the champion's head and neck into the canvas as chants of "this is awesome" broke out. Omega sold the effects of the move, teasing numbness in his left arm. Ospreay took him down with a One-Winged Angel for a one-count. A Stormbreaker followed, but Omega kicked out at one again.

With adrenaline fading, Ospreay delivered the Hidden Blade to score the win and the title in one of the most extraordinary matches of 2026. Elite storytelling, drama-filled near-falls, a red-hot crowd, and a storybook finish made this every bit the iconic match many expected it to be when it was first announced for the show.

A career-defining moment for Ospreay.

Result

Ospreay defeated Omega

Grade

A+

Top Takeaways

• Ospreay's entrance was truly special, with a video package narrated by his mother giving way to a long walk to the entrance, where he encountered several stars who have been instrumental in his journey to this point. There was United Empire, Michael Oku and Amira, Ricochet, Swerve Strickland, Aussie Open teammates Mark Davis and Kyle Fletcher, Alex Windsor, and Jon Moxley. Fantastically produced by AEW.

• Omega took on the role of aggressor and even flashed heel tendencies throughout the match, something Bryan Danielson called out on commentary. He was likely establishing himself as the heel so that the Ospreay win was met with a huge ovation, but could we be preparing for the return of The Cleaner?
• Ospreay uncorked a punt to the side of Omega's head that Randy Orton would have approved of.

MVP and Overall Grade

MVP: Will Ospreay

This show was going to live and die on the back of Will Ospreay, the hometown hero turned No. 1 contender. He did all of the promotion for it, overcame a neck injury just to get back in time for it, and was competing in the night's marquee match-up, with the potential to make history.

The Aerial Assassin lived up to the loftiest of expectations, delivering a career-best performance as he fought through blood and pain to beat Omega, without question or excuse, and win the AEW World Championship for the first time.

That he became the first British-born competitor to win a world title in London made the moment even more special for him and his fans.

Overall Grade: A

The show was quite good up until the final three matches of the night, but those encounters put it over the top and earned it a pristine grade.

Darby Allin and Kevin Knight had a great Attitude Era brawl, Willow Nightingale and Mercedes Mone had a match that would have been the best on most cards, and Ospreay and Kenny Omega tore the house down in a five-star main event.

That trio of matches is what we call an exclamation point on a stellar broadcast.
