Those in England hoping to see a live AEW Dynamite or Collision around the time of next year's All In will have to wait a bit longer.

During an interview with the BBC to promote this week's presale for All In tickets, AEW head Tony Khan said that next August's return to London's Wembley Stadium will be their lone date in the country in 2024.

"I can promise you...that AEW All In in London will be the only wrestling show we do in England this year," Khan stated.

He was not asked if Dynamite or Collision could visit other UK or European countries during the All In timeframe or at another time. The show is set for Sunday, August 25th.

Khan said he hopes the Wembley show will be an annual tradition. Along with Bryan Danielson, he said he is excited to hopefully have natives Jamie Hayter and PAC as part of the big event as they had to miss this year's Wembley debut due to injuries.

Last year's inaugural event was a major success for the company, generating over $10 million in ticket revenue and over 81,000 paid tickets, according to Khan. Khan previously stated the event brought in more than 200,000 pay-per-view buys.

A show at the beginning of the year wouldn’t be a terribly idea. Something in like January/February then All In at the end of the August.

This way you don’t burn the territory out.

I imagine the goal is keep All In a special attraction. If he were to book other shows, All In might start to become less special and sell less in future outings.

I do get the sense that it's very important to him to try to "sell out" again and it's obviously gonna be a lot more difficult this second time around. I'm assuming making this the only UK show of the year is part of that effort to make sure people buy tickets.

1000% about selling out.

Main Event Big Willie, Jamie Hayter and the In-Ring return of Nigel McGuinness will get them there.

... I do hope they may think about doing a whole week of shows in the UK/Europe in 2025 though, should All In 24 be another overall success, but I understand that they don't go full gung-ho after one big successful show.

they also don't get site fees atm, and it's not a cheap venture to move production overseas.

that's true, Statlander and PAC were not available for example. Will Ospreay for the world title and Jamie Hayter for her world title would easily get a sellout imo

That too... although, it should be easy (and way cheaper than any other venue) to maybe do a Dynamite in Craven Cottage the week before All In. It's the Stadium of Fulham and it's owned by the club. :hmm:
