The pre-match video package rolls, setting the stage for the second pay-per-view match of the night, where the AEW Women's World Championship is on the line. Back inside Wembley Stadium, the crowd erupts as the entrance theme for "The Glamour" Mariah May plays, signaling her arrival for this eagerly awaited title clash.
Luther the Butler makes his dramatic return, appearing for the first time since Mariah May's brutal attack on "Timeless" Toni Storm, which included hurling him off the stage. Luther introduces Storm, who is greeted with a rockstar-like ovation from the U.K. crowd as she makes her way to the ring.
As the bell rings, the energy in Wembley Stadium soars with chants and songs echoing throughout the arena. The commentators highlight Storm’s conflicted emotions, visibly distressed by the situation, while May exudes disgust and malevolence. The two women exchange blows, igniting the physicality of the match, with May landing a powerful dropkick early on.
On commentary, Nigel McGuinness adds a touch of humor, prompting reactions from Excalibur and Tony Schiavone as he references Storm’s cheeky monikers, "The Whore You All Adore" and "The Slut That You Cannot Rebut." Meanwhile, Mariah May maintains control, punishing Storm in the corner and dominating the early moments of the match.
Â
May unleashed a powerful powerbomb, sending Storm crashing to the floor from the ring apron. With a mischievous grin, she posed for the camera, playfully touching her finger to her lips in a self-deprecating gesture. McGuinness, as always, couldn't contain his admiration for her.
Back in the ring, May continued her dominance, executing a graceful airplane spin followed by a forceful side slam. She taunted the crowd, relishing in her control.
The action spilled outside the ring, where May engaged in a brief conversation with her mother in the audience. To the shock and disgust of the commentators, she unexpectedly slapped her mother. Storm seized the opportunity to turn the tide, launching a fierce attack. She delivered a devastating Storm Zero on the steel ring steps, opening a cut on May's head and shifting momentum in her favor.
With concern, Storm approached May's mother to check on her well-being. When May reappeared, she was visibly distressed, moaning in pain from the earlier attack. Schiavone reveled in the dramatic moment, much to the dismay of McGuinness, May's devoted admirer.
Storm's momentum continued, but May refused to give up. She fought back with renewed determination, landing a powerful running hip attack that regained control of the match.
May connects with a May-Day and goes for the pin, but Storm kicks out, keeping the match alive. Storm rallies, taking control and coming close to victory multiple times. She grabs the high heel, poised to strike May down, but ultimately chooses not to. This hesitation costs her, as May seizes the moment and regains control.
In a bold move, May kisses Storm on the forehead before delivering Storm's own finishing move, securing the pinfall and the win. "The Glamour" Mariah May is crowned the new AEW Women's Champion. After the match, May makes her way over to Nigel McGuinness, planting a kiss on him, which clearly delights him. As she exits, Storm remains in the ring, laughing as the fans once again begin singing for her.
Winner and NEW AEW Women's Champion: "The Glamour" Mariah May
Our third match of the evening brings yet another championship bout to the stage. "The Learning Tree" Chris Jericho, the longest-reigning "For The World" Champion in pro wrestling history, makes his entrance to a live band performance. Grabbing the mic, Jericho greets the crowd with his signature "Hi guys!" before launching into a live Fozzy performance ahead of his latest title defense.
As Jericho makes his way to the ring, he belts out a song that hasn't been featured in AEW programming, wrapping it up with a classic "Thanks guys!" We then cut to HOOK backstage just before his theme music hits. The crowd in Wembley Stadium begins chanting "HOOK! HOOK! HOOK!" as his entrance ritual, reminiscent of Bill Goldberg, unfolds.
The iconic "beep, beep" EKG sounds from Taz's old-school WWE theme music echo through the arena, drawing a huge reaction from the U.K. crowd. The sounds transition into Action Bronson’s familiar beats as "The Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil" makes his way to the ring. Meanwhile, Taz joins the commentary team to call the action in this title clash. The bell rings, and the match is officially underway.
Right from the start, "FTW Rules" come into play, as Jericho’s Learning Tree cohorts, Big Bill and Bryan Keith, ambush HOOK, creating an immediate three-on-one disadvantage. Jericho hits a Judas Effect and goes for the pin, but HOOK kicks out at one. Fighting back, HOOK unleashes a series of explosive suplexes, with the commentators reminding us that he’s battling with one eye.
HOOK continues to toss his opponents around the ring until the numbers game catches up with him again. Jericho introduces a sack full of cricket balls, using them as weapons, but HOOK turns the tables, suplexing Jericho onto the scattered balls. HOOK then grabs a cricket bat, choking Jericho with it as the veteran keeps yelling "Hi guys!" to the crowd, even while being choked.
Jericho regained control and instructed his "Learning Tree" cohorts, Bill and Keith, to set up a table. They also retrieved a barbed-wire board and laid it across the table, creating a dangerous obstacle. Bill attempted a powerful chokeslam onto the board, but HOOK evaded the attack and countered with his own offense.
Jericho targeted HOOK's injured eye, taunting him and exploiting his temporary vision issues. The champion baited HOOK, who swung wildly at empty air, before delivering a vicious trash can shot. Jericho stalked his opponent, setting him up for a devastating Judas Effect. However, HOOK avoided the attack and countered with a forceful t-bone suplex.
As HOOK removed the bandages from his eye, it became clear that his vision had been restored. The earlier punishment he endured had been a calculated strategy, not the result of genuine vision problems.
Bill was knocked out on the apron and fell through the barbed-wire table, landing with a sickening thud. HOOK seemed poised for victory, but interference from Jericho's associates once again disrupted the match. Taz, growing increasingly frustrated, announced his intention to intervene. He stood up and applied a Tazmission to one of Jericho's goons, while HOOK simultaneously locked in a Red-rum submission on Jericho, securing the victory.
Winner and NEW FTW Champion: HOOK
Next up are the reigning AEW Tag-Team Champions, The Young Bucks—Matthew and Nicholas Jackson. Sporting ruffled, 1800s-style British attire, they strut to the ring, posing with their titles on the ropes as their entrance music fades.
The Acclaimed’s beat drops next, and Max Caster, accompanied by Anthony Bowens and "Daddy Ass" Billy Gunn, steps out with a microphone. Caster delivers his signature freestyle rap as the trio heads to the ring for their big title opportunity. The bell rings, and we're officially underway. Loud "Oh, scissor me daddy!" chants echo throughout Wembley Stadium.
Max Caster and Dax Harwood kick things off as the legal men. The action intensifies as The Young Bucks eventually enter the ring, only to be quickly thrown out by FTR and The Acclaimed, who then engage in a wild four-man brawl.
Nicholas Jackson sneaks in with a blind tag, though Excalibur mistakenly refers to him as Matthew—an easy mix-up given their similar appearance. Taz and Tony Schiavone quickly come to his defense with jokes about brotherly resemblance. An assisted sliced bread spot follows, with Jackson gaining the upper hand as the crowd breaks into a "CM Punk! CM Punk!" chant.
Bowens nails a big move on Jackson but is caught by a superkick from his brother while distracted by the crowd. Caster and Bowens respond with a BTE Trigger and a Shatter Machine, using the Bucks' and FTR's signature moves to the crowd’s delight. A pin attempt is quickly broken up, and the Bucks regain control, pausing to pump up their custom Reeboks before launching a superkick party.
Jackson attempts a cheap shot with the title belt, but "Daddy Ass" intervenes, taking him out with a Fame-Asser onto the belt. In the chaotic final moments, The Young Bucks hit their EVP Trigger on FTR, securing the pinfall victory. With this win, The Young Bucks remain the AEW Tag-Team Champions, becoming the first team to successfully retain their titles on the show.
Winners and STILL AEW Tag-Team Champions: The Young Bucks
Following a video package hyping AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door 2025 in London, the action shifted back to Wembley Stadium. Justin Roberts, "The Dapper Yapper," conducted the ring introductions and explained the rules for the Casino Gauntlet match. The winner would earn the coveted "Casino Chip," redeemable for a title shot at any time. With rumors of surprises in store, the excitement was palpable.
Orange Cassidy, as announced, kicked off the match as the first entrant. The crowd eagerly awaited the second competitor, who would share the ring with the "Freshly Squeezed" one. The iconic coin drop sounded, and the crowd erupted in cheers as Kazuchika Okada, the AEW Continental Champion, made his entrance. The bell rang, and the match was underway.
Okada immediately sought to land his signature Rainmaker, while Cassidy countered with his signature offense. As the countdown timer approached zero, the first surprise of the match was revealed: Nigel McGuinness, making a triumphant return after years on the sidelines, entered the match to compete for the AEW World Championship.
The three competitors battle it out until the countdown clock appears once more, signaling the arrival of Kyle O'Reilly. With two members of The Conglomeration now in the ring, the action briefly turns into a two-on-two affair before everyone starts mixing it up again. The clock ticks down, and the next entrant is a major surprise—fresh off his G1 Climax victory, Zack Sabre Jr. enters to a massive pop from the U.K. crowd.
As the chaos ensues, the ring clears, leaving only McGuinness and ZSJ standing. The two share an intense staredown, drawing a huge reaction from the Wembley fans. They finally engage, prompting a "This is Wrestling!" chant from the crowd. Okada then joins the fray, taking out McGuinness and facing off with ZSJ. He goes for a neckbreaker, which ZSJ initially dodges, but Okada ultimately lands the move, though he’s clearly favoring his right shoulder as he gets back to his feet.
Okada follows up with a top-rope elbow drop on ZSJ. Roderick Strong is the next to enter, and mere seconds after joining the action and hitting a few moves, the countdown clock reappears. The match feels rushed, with intervals seemingly sped up, leaving little time for fans to fully absorb the action. Mark Briscoe enters next, followed by Hangman Page, adding even more intensity to the already chaotic scene.
Page, upon entering the ring, immediately attempted a Buckshot Lariat. However, before he could connect, the familiar sound of a guitar screech filled the arena. Jeff Jarrett made his grand entrance, greeted by a thunderous ovation from the British crowd. The crowd was singing along to the "My world!" chorus of Jarrett's entrance theme, creating an electric atmosphere.
Jarrett pointed his guitar at Hangman Page, signaling his intent. The two men engaged in an intense stare-down, their rivalry palpable. They quickly exchanged blows, the match escalating with each strike.
The countdown clock reappears, bringing yet another huge surprise entrant—former WWE Superstar Ricochet! The crowd inside Wembley Stadium erupts in shock and excitement, mirrored by the astonishment of the AEW commentary team. Ricochet hits the ring and immediately starts flying around with his signature high-flying moves, prompting the commentators to note how seamlessly he seems to fit into AEW.
As the next countdown wraps up, Christian Cage's theme hits, and he makes his way to the ring. However, before he can even reach ringside, Ricochet launches himself from the ropes, splashing onto Cage and taking him down. Moments later, Jeff Jarrett enters to a massive pop, delivering a thunderous guitar shot to Christian’s head, shattering it into a thousand splinters and sending the crowd into a frenzy.
As the next countdown timer expired, Killswitch made a dramatic entrance. He immediately asserted his presence, delivering a devastating chokeslam to O'Reilly. Cage capitalized on the situation, pinning O'Reilly for the victory. With this win, Cage earned the right to cash in his Casino Chip and challenge for the AEW Championship at any time of his choosing.
Winner: Christian Cage
A pre-match video package set the stage for one of the most highly anticipated matches of the evening: Maxwell Jacob Friedman defending his AEW American Championship against Will Ospreay, the former AEW International Champion. As the video concluded, "The Aerial Assassin" made his grand entrance, greeted by a thunderous ovation from the crowd.
The familiar sounds of MJF's entrance music followed, eliciting an equally loud, albeit overwhelmingly negative, reaction from the Wembley Stadium crowd. The fans sang along to the catchy tune, expressing their displeasure as MJF made his way to the ring for the highly anticipated match.
The bell rang, and MJF and Ospreay immediately charged at each other, colliding in a flurry of strikes. In the corner, the referee separated them, but MJF landed a cheap shot with a thumb to Ospreay's eye. Ospreay retaliated with a powerful dive over the ropes, splashing onto MJF at ringside.
Back in the ring, MJF dodged a hidden blade attempt by Ospreay, causing the challenger to accidentally hit the referee. Taking advantage, MJF unleashed a barrage of strikes, driving Ospreay to the outside and sending him into the barricade. He even took a bite out of Ospreay's head before re-entering the ring to reset the count and deliver a powerful boot to the challenger.
Ospreay fought back, but MJF countered with a back body drop, sending him to the floor. Ospreay returned to the ring and landed a nearfall, but MJF countered with a knee to the spine, only for Ospreay to kick out.

MJF landed a powerful right hand, but Ospreay fought back, finally connecting with a Storm Breaker. The crowd erupted as Ospreay covered MJF, but the champion once again kicked out.

Despite Ospreay’s efforts, MJF still manages to land a title shot, going for the cover, but Ospreay kicks out. MJF tries to execute a Hidden Blade, but Ospreay dodges. In the chaos, both men collide, knocking the referee out of the ring. With the ref down, MJF teases a Tiger Driver '91, but Ospreay counters. Ospreay considers hitting the move himself, but MJF lands a low blow. MJF then tries to retrieve brass knuckles, only to be stopped by a masked figure, who reveals himself to be Daniel Garcia.
Seizing the moment, Ospreay delivers a Tiger Driver '91 to MJF, securing the victory to reclaim the AEW International Championship. Ospreay refuses to accept the American title after his win.

Swerve Strickland (c) vs. Bryan Danielson
It's main event time!
After over five hours of action, the show culminated with the final match of the evening. A pre-match video package aired, highlighting the emotional journey leading up to this career-defining bout. Bryan Danielson, risking his illustrious career, challenged reigning AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland for the coveted title.
As the segment concludes, the electrifying sounds of Europe's "Final Countdown" blast through Wembley Stadium, signaling the arrival of the iconic "American Dragon" Bryan Danielson. The crowd erupts, singing along with the anthem, adding to the palpable big fight atmosphere. Bryan enters the ring to a thunderous reception, and as his music fades, the stage is set for a grand entrance by the reigning star of AEW's men's singles division.
Swerve Strickland makes his way out, donning custom gear that echoes MVP's style but with a striking black and gold twist. Prince Nana introduces a few special guests, and soon, the stadium buzzes with excitement as rappers take the stage to perform the Trill OG remix of "Swerve When I Drive." Big Bun takes the lead on the mic, while Nana entertains with his signature goofy but always captivating dance moves. As "The Dapper Yapper" Justin Roberts steps in for the final pre-match introductions, the intensity in the arena reaches its peak, and the match is ready to begin.
The bell rings, and the crowd erupts into a near-unanimous standing ovation, with a thunderous roar filling the arena. Jim Ross, settling in for special guest commentary alongside the team, immediately recalls the moment he signed Danielson to his first WWE contract years ago. As Ross reflects, Danielson and Swerve waste no time, locking up and trading fierce chops, going nose-to-nose as the crowd rallies with a resounding "Let's go Bryan!" chant echoing throughout the venue.
Swerve then shoots a menacing glance at Brie Danielson and Bryan's family seated in the crowd. Excalibur notes how Bryan's daughter, Birdie, can be heard screaming with a mix of excitement and fear every time her father lands or takes a hit, suggesting it's likely having an effect on "The American Dragon." In the ring, Swerve begins to dominate the early exchanges, targeting Danielson's leg with calculated strikes. The momentum builds as Swerve delivers a punishing death valley driver to Danielson, slamming him onto the ring bell.
Swerve escalates the tension by dragging Danielson to ringside, directly in front of his family. With his wife and child just inches away, Swerve holds Danielson’s hands and mercilessly stomps him, all while taunting his loved ones. The brutality continues as Swerve grinds a cut on Danielson’s head, transforming his face into a crimson mask, with blood pouring down to his chin, still in full view of his horrified family.
Despite the onslaught, Danielson fights back, locking in the LeBelle Lock as Swerve struggles to prevent it from being fully applied. Gaining momentum, Danielson takes Swerve to the top rope, hooks his arms behind his back, and executes a jaw-dropping tiger suplex that sends Swerve crashing down on the back of his head and neck. Not letting up, Danielson grabs Swerve’s hands and delivers vicious, Ronnie Garvin-style stomps to his opponent.
Swerve, in a frenzy, unleashes a barrage of strikes on Danielson, culminating in a devastating modified Vertabreaker. The commentary team's voices drop to a hushed tone as ringside medics rush to the ring to check on Danielson's condition. Replays show the brutal impact as Swerve's assault continues.
Determined to finish the job, Swerve shoos away the medics and returns his focus to Danielson. Moments later, he attempts a finishing move, but Danielson, defying all odds, kicks out at the last second. The crowd erupts in cheers, their hopes reignited.
The AEW Champion, his face a mask of contempt, backs away and stalks Danielson, silencing the crowd with a pair of devastating house calls. He taunts and mocks the fallen Swerve, his eyes fixed on Danielson's family in the crowd.
But Danielson, refusing to be defeated, dodges a Swerve stomp and counters with a flurry of strikes, igniting the crowd once more. He lands a powerful move and then locks in a triangle choke, elbowing Swerve relentlessly. The crowd joins in a "Yes!" chant as Danielson connects with a devastating Busaiku Knee.
To the astonishment of everyone, Swerve no-sells the finisher, shrugging off the impact and resuming his assault. He pummels Danielson mercilessly, seemingly delivering a knockout blow. As he covers Danielson, the crowd's collective gasp echoes through the arena. Excalibur, his voice filled with disbelief, notes that it's the first time anyone has kicked out of Swerve's Big Pressure.
Hangman Page makes a dramatic appearance, emerging from the crowd to send Nana flying with a powerful launch. He locks eyes with Swerve, but before he can make a move, security steps in and drags him away.
Meanwhile, Bryan Danielson seizes the moment, recovering in time to deliver a devastating Busaiku Knee to Swerve. He goes for the pin but only gets a near fall, igniting the crowd into a thunderous "This is Awesome!" chant. The two trade blows, with the audience roaring for Danielson's strikes and booing Swerve's. Danielson delivers another Busaiku Knee, locking in the LeBelle Lock as the crowd reaches a fever pitch.
Swerve struggles but nearly escapes, only for Danielson to tighten the hold with an S-grip, forcing Swerve to tap out. The arena erupts in celebration as Europe's "Final Countdown" blares, marking the end of an epic main event. Bryan Danielson's career continues, and he is now the new AEW World Champion.
The commentators note this is the first time Swerve has ever tapped out. Danielson's family and the new AEW Trios Champions from the BCC, Claudio Castagnoli, and Wheeler Yuta, join him in the ring as fireworks light up the sky and confetti rains down. Fans sing along with "Final Countdown" as Jim Ross signs off, and Excalibur wraps up the show. That's how AEW All In: London 2024 concludes.
