AEW CEO Tony Khan looks forward to the unique challenge of presenting AEW All In and All Out.
AEW will present AEW All In London at Wembley Stadium on August 27. One week later, the company will return to Chicago for their weekly All Out pay-per-view. Both events promise to be major highlights of AEW’s year.
In an interview with Tim Battle and Eli on the Battleground Podcast, Khan was asked about the challenges of booking All in/All Out less than a week apart.
“Well, we’re gonna find out. It’s gonna be exciting to do it,” Khan said. “It’s gonna be the first time anybody’s tried anything like this. AEW’s got our highest show of all time coming up very soon. August 27 at Wembley Stadium, it’s gonna be a massive, massive event. I’m so excited for the show.
“In particular, I have to say, right now, the ticket sales are unprecedented. This is the biggest pro wrestling event in the history of Europe. No show ever in Europe has sold more tickets or had a bigger gross than this, so it’s pretty special. It’s one of the biggest wrestling events in the history of the world now.”
Tony Khan Hypes Upcoming Schedule
Khan continued by highlighting how AEW will return to its typical pay-per-view slot for All Out. He then stated that AEW has some big shows coming up, starting this week with the Fight for the Fallen TV special.
“Then All Out, the next week, Labor Day weekend, we’ll be back in our classic pay-per-view spot on Sunday night,” Khan said. “So it’s gonna be just about a week apart, two huge events. But we’ve got some huge events leading into them. We’re gonna find out more about these shoes and we’ve got great wrestling matches coming up this week.”
In the same interview, Khan noted that he couldn’t comment on the situation with CM Punk amd Hangman Page.
