Early Match Predictions For AEW All Out 2026

The next PPV on the AEW calendar comes in the form of All Out 2026, with the promotion heading to the NOW Arena in Chicago, Illinois on September 26, hoping to continue the momentum built from an all-timer AEW All In: London 2026 event, which saw debuts, new champions, and show-stealers. There are a lot of possibilities going forwards, so predicting the match card for the eight annual edition of this show is no easy feat.

Based upon the event of All In: London 2026, some educated guesswork, some fantasy booking, and more, the upcoming All Out 2026 card could look a little something like this.

Kazuchika Okada Vs. Kyle Fletcher (AEW International Championship)

• Kazuchika Okada won the International Title at All In.
• Kyle Fletcher frustratingly raised his hand after the match.
• Fletcher & Okada will fall out and feud.

In a triple threat match also involving Konosuke Takeshita, Kazuchika Okada secured the International Championship, dethroning former champion Kyle Fletcher. Both men are still members of the Don Callis Family, but this won’t last for much longer. Fletcher & Okada have had heat and tension for a long time, and this will only continue to grow now that they have traded the title between one another.

Whether it be a last ditch effort from Don Callis to put their differences aside or whether Fletcher breaks out and turns babyface away from the faction, expect to see these two men collide once again, potentially at All Out 2026.

Persephone Vs. Maya World Vs. Britt Baker Vs. Thunda Rosa (TBS Championship)

• Persephone beat Maya World at All In.
• Britt Baker returned to help Persephone.
• Thunder Rosa has been involved in the TBS Title scene.

The TBS Championship scene has been very busy in recent months, trading hands multiple times and resting around the waist of Persephone, who dethroned Maya World thanks to the interfering and returning Britt Baker. Although Baker & Persephone look to be allies, it is likely that Baker will seek to try and win some gold, creating a multi-woman match for All Out 2026.

There are other women across the roster who could get involved too, but one of the more obvious picks includes Thunder Rosa, who has been both an ally of World and enemy of Persephone in recent weeks. Not only that, but Rosa & Baker have a long and turbulent history, so throwing them into the ring together would be interesting.

The New Level & Swerve Strickland Vs. Adam Page & Brodido (AEW World Trios Championships)

• The New Level debuted at All In: London 2026.
• Kofi, Austin Creed & Swerve Strickland won the AEW World Trios Titles.
• Adam Page & Brodido are the former champions.

Kofi & Austin Creed (now called The New Level) debuted at AEW All In: London 2026, winning the AEW World Trios Championships alongside Swerve Strickland. There are a whole bunch of trios across AEW’s roster who may step up to take them on at All Out 2026, but the most obvious pick would be the former champions, Adam Page & Brodido.

Brodido & The New Level colliding would be fantastic, and the renewal of bad blood between Page & Strickland is a salivating prospect too. This could be the match of the night at All Out if AEW goes down this route.

4

MJF Vs. Andrade El Idolo

• MJF & Andrade have developed bad blood over recent months.
• Andrade betrayed MJF at Forbidden Door.
• Andrade won the Casino Gauntlet at All In.

The tensions between MJF & Andrade El Idolo have been ongoing for several months, building up more prominently after Andrade betrayed MJF inside Death’s Door at Forbidden Door and when they clashed in the Casino Gauntlet match at All In.

Sooner or later, it needs to be time for these two wrestlers to finally meet in singles action, and doing so on a stage such as All Out 2026 looks to be the perfect setting.

3

Cage & Cope Vs. FTR Vs. Motor City Machine Guns Vs. Young Bucks (AEW World Tag Team Championships, Ladder)

• Cage & Cope made elevated ladder & TLC matches.
• At All In, AEW’s reinforced tag team division faced off.
• All Out 2026 could feature a wild fatal four way match.

Following on from the successful AEW World Tag Team Title defense of Cage & Cope over The Young Bucks, both duos were confronted with The Motor City Machine Guns, FTR, and The New Level, suggesting that several big teams will be gunning for the gold.

With The New Level busy in the trios division, it leaves the remaining four teams available at All Out 2026 to collide in a wild ladder match. Putting four of the greatest teams from several different decades in the ring with the titles hanging above the ring could lead to something magical.

2

Mercedes Mone Vs. Thekla (AEW Women’s World Championship)

• Mercedes Mone defeated Willow Nightingale at All In.
• Thekla returned and teased a babyface turn.
• She lost the world title at Redemption 2026.

After several instances of her coming up short in the past, All In: London 2026 finally saw Mercedes Mone win the big one, dethroning Willow Nightingale for the AEW Women’s World Championship. Watching on was former champion Thekla, who made it clear that she was coming back after the title she lost at Redemption.

Mercedes Mone vs. Thekla is a salivating prospect and one which can help to turn Thekla into a babyface given the recent support she’s been receiving from AEW’s audience.

1

Will Ospreay Vs. Jon Moxley (AEW World Championship)

• Will Ospreay dethroned Kenny Omega at All In.
• Moxley & Ospreay have unfinished business in AEW.
• Moxley is the current Continental Champion.

Will Ospreay is the brand new AEW World Champion, defeating Kenny Omega in an instant classic at All In. There will be many challengers lining up, but one of the most obvious will be Jon Moxley. These two have a long history, leading to both a feud and alliance in 2026, until Ospreay broke free of the Death Riders and sought to beat Omega on his own. At All In, Moxley did show Ospreay some respect before his entrance, but given that he defeated Ospreay earlier this year, he has a case to make for a title shot.

Moxley is the reigning Continental Champion, but his winning streak in 2026 has certainly earned him a shot at the title he’s won more than anyone else. Ospreay overcoming Moxley is still a hurdle he has yet to accomplish, so All Out 2026 might be the place to do it.
