Add FightsATW on GoogleAEW (All Elite Wrestling) hosted ‘All In: London’ 2026 live from Wembley Stadium in London, United Kingdom, on Sunday night, and it proved to be one of the biggest nights in the company’s history. After watching Sunday’s pay-per-view (PPV), I’m still buzzing from what I saw throughout the night.
The Look Was ‘DIFFERENT’
Let’s start with the production. The entrance and ring setup felt bigger than ever. This wasn’t your normal AEW PPV. It felt as if AEW was literally going all in and trying to show what the company’s next chapter looks like. The pyro was much more significant, and the 4K close-ups were a welcome new wrinkle. Yes, we’ve seen it at their rivals’ WWE premium live events, but the way it was used on Sunday felt fresh for AEW. The video promo packages before each match were a level above what has been done in the past and were elite, especially the Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay intros, which we will get into in more detail later.
A New Day For ‘The New Level’
If there was any way AEW could kick off their PPV and send social media into a frenzy, it was the debut of ‘The New Level,’ formerly known as ‘The New Day.’ Wembley Stadium went bonkers when they came out, as it truly felt like a surprise debut. Their appearance instantly elevated AEW’s tag-team division to a ‘New Level.’ When they later appeared with Motor City Machine Guns and FTR, it was a moment that won’t be soon forgotten, as they gave the audience a glimpse of what to expect in the months to come.
Matches That Exceeded Expectations
It’s not to say that these matches weren’t anticipated because they were, but it felt like they pushed things even further, making it look like magic in the ring. Kevin Knight vs. Darby Allin was one, along with Adam Copeland and Christian Cage vs. The Young Bucks, and Willow Nightingale vs. Mercedes Moné. They pushed each other in every way possible, and in the end, the fans showed their appreciation for the matches.
Kenny Omega vs Will Ospreay Will Compete For Match of The Year
When you say the names Omega and Ospreay in the same sentence about a match, you expect a high-level affair. Expecting a high-level match and getting an even higher one is something you can’t anticipate. First off, the ring walks. Ospreay’s video package, narrated by his mother and featuring clips of him coming up, was perfect. It pulled on the heartstrings for sure. Then, as he walked toward the curtain, seeing rivals and friends along the way, wow, so good. Walking out with the British flag to the sea of people and getting a huge “Ospreay! Ospreay! Ospreay!” pop was out of this world.
After that, it was time for the living legend. Omega’s video package, in Japanese and featuring his highlights with Ospreay, was a chef’s kiss. Omega gave a hint that he was about to deliver the ultimate heel performance while talking to the camera, but little did anyone know he would fully embrace it in a way only Omega can.
Once the match began, it was pure cinema. Back and forth, they went, trading moves. They gave you wrestling, strong style, and psychology. It really took things to the next level when Omega kept popping out after the one count toward the end of the match. The crowd was all Ospreay, but when they saw what Omega was doing, they couldn’t help but cheer because they knew what he was doing. When Ospreay finally got the three count to become the new champion, he just lay there, and Omega reached out to hold his fingers as they took in all the energy Wembley was giving them.
AEW ‘All In: London’ was a great show, and they have a ton of momentum heading into Dynamite on Wednesday. The challenge now is to keep that momentum going, as they have historically been unable to sustain it days after a good PPV event.
