AEW
All Elite Wrestling has experienced a creative renaissance over the past two years, with the promotion strategically focusing on delivering content that resonates with their audience across both in-ring action and compelling storytelling.
As AEW prepares for their monumental event All In: London 2026, several storylines appear to be advancing toward significant developments in the coming months. These plans span from concluding ongoing narratives to elevating emerging talents and creating memorable moments for major television and PPV events.
7. Kenny Omega’s Potential Third AEW World Title Reign
At AEW Dynasty 2026, MJF successfully retained the AEW World Championship against Kenny Omega, marking a pivotal moment in their storied rivalry.
Following this defeat, Omega publicly questioned whether he could ever reclaim the world title, but received an encouraging pep talk from Will Ospreay that reignited his championship aspirations.
This renewed confidence has inspired Omega to pursue a different path back to gold, beginning with his upcoming match against Zack Sabre Jr. at Forbidden Door 2026.
A victory over Sabre Jr. could position Omega for a championship opportunity at AEW’s Redemption event in July, where he would compete on home Canadian soil for the AEW World Title.
6. Kevin Knight’s Ascent to Main Event Status
Kevin Knight solidified his transformation into a villainous character at AEW Double Or Nothing 2026 by attacking Darby Allin following MJF’s successful AEW World Title defense.
Embracing his heel persona, Knight expressed frustration with the “trust the process” mentality and declared his intention to take control of his career trajectory.
Having aligned himself with the Don Callis Family, “The Jet” appears positioned to transition from midcard contender to main event mainstay in AEW’s competitive landscape.
Throughout the upcoming months, Knight’s development as a top-tier opponent will be crucial to AEW’s singles division evolution.
5. Andrade El Idolo’s Potential Face Turn and Departure from Don Callis Family
The Don Callis Family’s recent acquisition of Kevin Knight has reportedly created tension for Andrade El Idolo within the faction.
Since returning to AEW in January, El Idolo has been aggressively pursuing the AEW World Championship, compiling victories over established names like Kenny Omega and Swerve Strickland.
Despite these impressive wins, El Idolo has yet to receive a championship opportunity, potentially setting the stage for a significant character shift.
Being overlooked for the Knight opportunity may catalyze El Idolo’s departure from the Don Callis Family, leading to a babyface turn that could position him as AEW’s relentless championship hunter.
4. Historic Trio of Tag Teams Set for Ladder Match at All In: London
AEW Revolution 2026 witnessed the return of AEW’s most decorated team, with Adam Copeland and Christian Cage reuniting following FTR’s victory over The Young Bucks.
This nostalgic return sparked anticipation for what could develop into one of AEW’s greatest tag team feuds involving three of wrestling’s most respected acts.
The rivalry intensified at Double Or Nothing 2026 when Copeland and Cage defeated FTR in an I Quit Match to claim the AEW World Tag Team Championships.
All indicators suggest this trio will collide in a high-stakes Ladder Match for the tag team titles at Wembley Stadium during All In: London 2026.
3. Mercedes Monè’s Quest for AEW Women’s World Championship
The AEW All In: London 2026 event will feature winner-take-all matches in both men’s and women’s divisions through the Owen Hart Foundation Tournaments.
In the women’s bracket, Mercedes Monè returned as the “Wild Card” by defeating Alex Windsor in the quarterfinals and is set to face Hazuki in the semifinals at Forbidden Door 2026.
Monè’s path to the finals likely involves challenging either Athena or Maya World, with the former multi-time champion positioned as the overwhelming favorite to capture the AEW Women’s World Championship.
Her second consecutive Owen Hart Cup victory and potential world title win at All In: London would represent a crowning achievement in her AEW return.
2. Will Ospreay’s Championship Dream at Wembley
Will Ospreay has reached the Owen Hart Foundation Men’s Tournament finals for the second consecutive year, continuing his pursuit of AEW supremacy.
His semifinal opponent at Forbidden Door 2026 will be Swerve Strickland, marking a personal rivalry that adds stakes to their encounter.
Having rebuilt himself alongside The Death Riders, Ospreay enters this final stretch with renewed focus and determination.
A victory in the tournament followed by AEW World Title success at Wembley Stadium would cap off Ospreay’s journey from fan favorite to championship holder at AEW’s most prestigious annual event.
1. Strategic Planning for 2027’s Potential Stadium Event
Amid speculation about All In: London 2026’s future, AEW is reportedly laying groundwork for a North American stadium show in 2027.
With WWE’s shift to Saudi Arabia for WrestleMania 43, AEW has an opportunity to capture significant attention by hosting their own major stadium event near traditional WrestleMania weekend.
Such an undertaking would demonstrate AEW’s global expansion while providing American fans with a world-class wrestling experience.
While All In: London dominates current discussions, establishing a second annual stadium show would solidify AEW’s position as wrestling’s premier alternative promotion.
