AEW All Out 2026 is set to take place on September 26th at Chicago’s NOW Arena, coming quickly after the major All In event. The card has been updated with exciting additions, including two key contender matches. Will Ospreay will headline the night defending his AEW World Championship against Jon Moxley, continuing his reign after winning the title earlier this year.

A noteworthy new matchup features AEW International Champion Kazuchika Okada defending his belt against Tommaso Ciampa. This marks their first-ever meeting and adds a fresh dynamic to the card, as Okada continues to bolster his reputation by defending the title he gained from Kyle Fletcher at All In. Meanwhile, a No. 1 contender's match for the AEW World Tag Team Championship will feature Darby Allin and Steven Borden facing off against Kevin Knight and Kyle Fletcher.

With Mercedes Moné sidelined due to injury, the event will also feature a replacement bout to determine her next challenger for the AEW Women’s World Championship at the upcoming WrestleDream pay-per-view. Thekla and Willow Nightingale have been booked for this crucial contest, ensuring the women's division continues to maintain its momentum despite the setback.

Other high-profile matches rounding out the card include a three-way ladder match for the AEW World Tag Team Championship involving Adam Copeland and Christian Cage, FTR, and The Young Bucks, as well as a trios title defense by Swerve Strickland and The New Level. Together, these bouts make AEW All Out 2026 a packed and strategically important event for the promotion’s championship landscape as it heads into the fall schedule.
