On Sunday, August 25, AEW will be live from Wembley Stadium in London, UK, for their annual event called All In. This is the second installment of AEW’s stadium event. However, it’s already been announced that the 2025 All In show will move to Texas at Globe Life Field next July.
As of this writing, there are 10 matches officially confirmed. It’s very likely that there will be one or two more bouts added to the event.
AEW All In Zero Hour will begin at 12pm ET with a preview of the PPV event, along with at least one or two matches. The PPV portion of All In will begin at 1pm ET and is set to have at least eight to 10 matches including all of the promotion’s championships.
Let’s examine the latest AEW All In odds for the available matches, courtesy of the top sports betting sites, and make our All In Predictions. This betting preview will be updated throughout the week with new odds and matches once they become official.

AEW All In Predictions
The following AEW predictions are for the confirmed All In matches. At this time of writing, not all matches have available odds:
All In Zero Hour: Mixed Tag-Team Match
- Willow Nightingale & Tomohiro Ishii (NA)
- Kris Statlander & Stokely Hathaway (NA)
This feud has been ongoing for months, ever since Krist Statlander turned on her former partner Willow. I was hoping that the feud would be over with by now, but it’s clear that AEW has nothing else better for Willow and Statlander .
So, we’re stuck with a mixed tag-team match that nobody cares about. Adding Hathaway and Ishii does nothing for the match, the storyline or the show.
With that said, you have to go with Willow and Ishii to win this match. There’s no other logical outcome. Please Tony Kahn, put us out of our misery with this feud. Let these two talented wrestlers go on to other meaningful storylines.
Bet: Willow Nightingale & Tomohiro Ishii (NA)
Casino Gauntlet Match
This year, the Casino Gauntlet Match winner will earn a future world title shot. That’s big news considering that AEW is reportedly going to load up on this match with all the stars that aren’t in other scheduled bouts.
Orange Cassidy recently won a triple threat match against Kyle O’Reilly and Roderick Strong to earn the top spot in this PPV bout. I expect both of those men to also join Cassidy in the Casino Gauntlet.
The big deal about this match, besides the future world title shot, surrounds the speculation of which former WWE stars will make surprise appearances. There’s plenty of buzz over Bobby Lashley and Ricochet who are both done with the WWE. Either man could show up and win this match to earn the title shot. Rumors are that Ricochet is on his way to London and has signed a multi-year deal with AEW. I’m a big fan of Ricochet, aka Prince Puma, and hope he makes a huge debut at All In. Would love it if he helps MJF beat Ospreay or if he joins The Elite since they’re getting stale.
However, for this match, I’m hoping for Lashley to debut and win the Casino Gauntlet. He’s a superstar that could easily create some excitement with the brand. Additionally, if MVP and Shelton Benjamin join him, we’re looking at a powerful faction that will definitely help AEW’s ratings and creative direction.
I expect that AEW will announce more entrants throughout this week. But, it doesn’t change my mind that a debuting wrestler is going to win this match. The only other angle that I would be willing to take a flier on is Hangman Page winning and going on to feud with Swerve Strickland. I’m a big fan of that feud and a fourth match between the two would be entertaining considering Page’s new attitude.
Bet: Debuting Wrestler (NA)
FTW Championship Match
- (c)Chris Jericho (NA)
- Hook (NA)
If you thought my criticism of the Zero Hour match was harsh, this one will be worse. There’s no current feud in AEW that is worse than this one. I can’t find one AEW fan that cares about this match. The storyline is absolutely boring. It has not boosted Hook at all. In fact, it’s deflated him.
Jericho’s character can be funny at times, but it’s absolutely stale. There’s nothing great about The Learning Tree that makes this match worth watching. It should be on the Zero Hour and quickly end in a Hook squash victory. I can’t find any positives with this booking other than it coming to an end.
Jericho’s days as a draw or stepping stone for younger wrestlers is over. He should not get this much PPV or TV time anymore. Quietly move him into commentary or on the creative team. As for Hook, I can’t see how this inspires him to stay with AEW.
With that said, Big Bill needs to get away from Jericho to become a serious main event star. He was massively over in Cardiff on Collision, according to all spoiler reports. In fact, many in attendance noted that Big Bill was the most “over” wrestler for the entire roster. Mr. Kahn, please get Big Bill out of the Jericho vortex and on his own
Bet: Hook (NA)
TNT Championship Coffin Match
- (c)Jack Perry (-450)
- Darby Allin (+275)
This is where things really start getting interesting for AEW and the PPV. We already know how dominant Darby Allin has been in coffin matches. In fact, it was last year at Wembley when Darby Allin and Sting defeated Swerve Strickland and Christian in a coffin match.
Let’s also not forget the brutal coffin matches that Darby had with Ethan Page and Brody King. He’s taken this gimmick match to all-new levels. If this All In bout was against anyone else, I would pick Allin to win.
With that said, Allin got the better of The Elite at the Blood and Guts episode of Dynamite. He and FTR also got the better of The Elite on the August 21st episode of Dynamite. I expect that trend to change this weekend. Like him or not, Jack Perry has been on a roll since returning to television. His run with the TNT title could be very interesting if he continues down this path.
Darby doesn’t need a title. However, his pursuit of a title makes that belt feel even more credible. Speaking of titles, there’s a rumor circulating that AEW is considering Allin for a world title run. That has been met with a lot of criticism over the last few days. I don’t see Allin as a world champion. At least not within the next few years. There are too many other wrestlers that should be ahead of him for consideration.
The smart bet and booking for this TNT title match are on Perry to retain the title. Don’t be surprised if The Elite get involved and help the former jungle boy win.
Bet: Jack Perry (-450)
AEW World Trios Championship: London Ladder Match
- The Bang Bang Gang (NA)
- The House of Black (NA)
- The BCC and Pac (NA)
- (c)The Patriarchy (NA)
The best storyline on Collision has been the Trios Belts. Christian and The Patriarchy have been nothing short of spectacular in the pursuit of the belts and the retaining of the titles. Christian wearing the turtleneck referee shirt on an episode of Collision was hilarious. The complete beat-down of the Bang Bang Gang and the House of Black, by the Patriarchy, was brilliant.
All three teams are highly talented and have made these belts far more meaningful. Having Christian and his boys pull off desperate act after desperate act, to keep these belts, has made for entertaining television.
After all of the shenanigans, Christopher Daniels decided to make this a four-way, ladders match at All In. In other words, we’re going to have a beautiful chaos inside the ring as 12-men create poetic carnage.
For less than week, AEW had a mystery team scheduled for this bout. That team was revealed on this weekend’s episode of Collision, according to the spoilers. Wheeler Yuta, Claudio Castignoli and Pac won a bout to be the 4th team for this All In ladders’ match. The crowd erupted for Pac and it’s great that AEW got the star on its biggest show of the year. However, this left many people asking “where’s Jon Moxley?” Mox has been out of action for almost two months. We can only hope that AEW has made him a surprise entrant into the Casino Gauntlet match.
Despite Pac being added with the BCC, I still don’t see them winning the trios title match. This match comes down to whether or not AEW plans to keep the titles on Christian and The Patriarchy or put it on another team. The Bang Bang Gang already had the belts for a while. The House of Black already had a nice run with the belts. It would make sense to give The Patriarchy more time with the belts. On a side note, I caught a report that stated The House of Black have been difficult backstage lately. This could mean that they lose the match on Sunday. Or, it could be smokescreen.
Nevertheless, unless AEW is bringing back Adam Copeland and his wife to interfere in this match and cost The Patriarchy, I’m taking Christian to find a way to survive like a cockroach and retain the titles. Things are more exciting on AEW television when Christian is creating chaos and holding gold belts.
Bet: The Patriarchy (NA)
AEW World Tag Team Championship Triple-Threat Match
- FTR (NA)
- The Acclaimed (NA)
- (c)The Young Bucks (NA)
I’ve really enjoyed what AEW has done with the feud between FTR and The Acclaimed. In my opinion, it has made The Acclaimed more relevant again, and edgier. The silly scissoring has temporarily subsided as Bowens and Caster are showing more aggression and in-ring physicality.
Having them in a brawl with FTR also raises their stock to another level. Then, add The Young Bucks and you have AEW’s top three tag-teams battling for the division’s top prize.
Last year, The Young Bucks and FTR put on a great match at All In. So, it makes sense to switch things up a little bit by adding The Acclaimed. Out of all three teams, The Acclaimed can benefit the most by winning this match.
The Young Bucks and FTR are viewed as the promotion’s top two tag-teams. However, if The Acclaimed can beat them both to win the titles, then it puts them on the same level.
FTR and The Young Bucks don’t need the titles. In fact, The Bucks current title run has been the most boring AEW tag-team title run to date. Yet, when it comes to solid feuds, FTR does the best job at this, and they would definitely make the belts more exciting over the next few months.
With that said, I’m taking The Acclaimed to win the match, but continue their feud with FTR who will eventually win the belts back later this year.
Bet: The Acclaimed (NA)
TBS Championship Match
- (c)Mercedes Mone (-2000)
- Britt Baker (+700)
Mercedes Mone is one of the biggest betting favorites for the entire All In event. With Kamille by her side, Mone seems unstoppable.
I expect Baker and Mone to put on a great match, but it’s hard to imagine that the CEO will take her first loss so soon after establishing herself as the top heel in the women’s division. Having Baker chase after the title and the win for a little while longer, seems like the best outcome for this bout.
I was hoping that Jamie Hayter would return at All In and either help Baker to win the match or save her from a two-on-one beating. It doesn’t appear like this will happen.
After a handful of near-pinfalls, I expect Kamille to be the difference maker that leads to Mone winning the match and retaining her TBS title.
Bet: Mercedes Mone (-2000)
AEW American Championship
- (c)MJF (+550)
- Will Ospreay (-1000)
Turning the International Title into the American Championship, along with MJF going full patriotic heel has been a fun ride so far. I, for one, don’t want to see this end. I feel like the obvious outcome is for Will Ospreay to win this weekend. After their interaction on this week’s Dynamite, where Ospreay was left in a pool of his own blood, I think it’s even more obvious that he will win. In fact, I actually wanted him to win after that encounter. Yet, after letting my emotions settle for the night, I came back to the same initial opinion – I would like for MJF to cheat to win and keep this storyline going even longer.
AEW needs to really consider getting more out of this feud than a 1-1 series tie and Ospreay winning the belt. If AEW is truly looking for All In to be a memorable show with unforgettable moments, then the best way to accomplish that is by having MJF cheat to win. Can you imagine how irate those London fans will be when their hometown hero is cheated out of a crowning moment? Can you imagine the drama of Ospreay losing in front of his wife and kids?
Just about everything MJF has done since beating Ospreay for the title has been gold. Why tarnish that gold and this run with a loss? The heat that MJF would get with a cheap win would be brilliant. It would catapult this feud to another stratosphere.
The smart bet is on Ospreay considering the odds.
With that said, I’m taking a flier on the upset. I’m a fan of both men, but there’s more meat on the bone with this American gimmick for MJF and it should continue after All In. Hey Tony, please make MJF the most hated man in the UK this weekend. You made him the most loved man in the UK last year, so let’s flip the switch on Sunday. Oh, and if you can get Ricochet to interfere on behalf of MJF, that would be even better.
Bet: MJF (+550)
AEW Women’s World Championship
- (c)”Timeless” Toni Storm (+350)
- Mariah May (-600)
This storyline has been one of the best in all of pro wrestling. The rise of Mariah May is nothing short of brilliant by the AEW creative brass and these two talented wrestlers.
The night that May turned on Storm will be one of the highlights of 2024. Who can forget Storm’s bloody face at the end of the July 10th episode of Dynamite?
It was brutal. It was evil. And, it was brilliant! Most fans and pundits did not expect a heel turn like that, especially not after May just won the Owen Hart Memorial Cup.
The turn was brilliantly executed and it has cemented May as one of the top women in the division. However, AEW needs to remember that this is not the end of the story for May’s ascension. This is the payoff to a long story arch that also needs to be executed properly.
To accomplish this, AEW must have May win the match. Oddsmakers believe it will happen and so do many fans. Yet, how AEW accomplishes this will be under the proverbial microscope.
I expect both women to go out there and put on a fantastic bout. It might not steal the show, as there are many great matches on the card, but it will definitely be one of the brightest moments for the biggest stage of 2024.
The storytelling in this match must be an Oscar winning performance by both women. With the intensity, emotions, and recent encounters, I can’t see anything other than an Academy Award for both wrestlers.
Storm will look fabulous in defeat, but May will be solidified as a star. And, AEW will benefit from having both women delivering a five-star performance in the latest chapter of this feud.
Bet: Mariah May (-600)
AEW World Title vs. Career
- (c)Swerve Strickland (+200)
- Bryan Danielson (-300)
The main event of All In is for the AEW World Title. However, there’s an added stipulation to this match – it will also be for Bryan Danielson’s career. If Danielson wins, he captures the AEW World Title and lives to fight another day. If he loses, then he retires.
Since Danielson won the Owen Hart Memorial Cup last month, Swerve Strickland has owned Danielson on the mic and in any exchanges. He’s gotten the better of Danielson during every encounter. In fact, he’s made Danielson look old, feeble and helpless at times. This fact wasn’t lost on the inured Eddie Kingston who said as much in his first promo since knee surgery. Yet, that all changed with this week’s episode of Dynamite, where Danielson spewed fire on the mic for the first time this year. We’ll get into this exchange in more detail down below.
Swerve won the belt at Dynasty in April. So, it’s been roughly four months since he became world champ to the delight of fans, pundits and his peers.
Strickland is the 11th world champion in AEW history, but the eighth different man to hold the title. His reign is now the 6th longest in AEW history behind:
- MJF at 406 days
- Kenny Omega at 346 days
- Jon Moxley at 277 days
- “Hangman” Adam Page at 197 days
- Chris Jericho at 182 days
I list those reigns to show that it wouldn’t be crazy if AEW decided to take the belt off of Swerve and give it to Danielson in a last hoorah for the greatest wrestler of his era.
Prior to this week’s Dynamite, I was torn on what AEW would do. I could see an outcome where Strickland wins the match and Danielson retires. But, Danielson’s speech on Wednesday, got me so fired up and the fans in attendance. It also made all of us realize that he’s not feeble or washed up.
Is this really the end of Danielson’s career?
Maybe I’m in denial, but I don’t believe it’s over now. I can still remember when he busted on the Indies scene and the name American Dragon started sweeping through like a brush fire. I celebrated when he signed with WWE (multiple times) and I celebrated when he went on to win the world title at WrestleMania 30.
I celebrated when Danielson went to AEW and resurrected his career. And, I’m going to celebrate Danielson winning the world title in London on Sunday. The American Dragon reminded us why he’s the best of his generation and by God, I will stick by the dragon until he breathes his last breath of fire!
Bet: Bryan Danielson (-300)
