AEW Redemption 2026 delivered an action-packed pay-per-view with multiple title changes and a dramatic main event that has fans buzzing. Maya World captured the TBS Championship from Hikaru Shida, Andrade El Idolo won the AEW National Title by defeating Mark Davis, and Willow Nightingale became the new AEW Women’s World Champion, making history as the first-ever Women’s Grand Slam Champion. The tag team scene saw Cope and Christian Cage retain the AEW Tag Team Titles against The Death Riders, immediately setting up a high-profile clash with the Young Bucks at the upcoming AEW All In event.

The undercard featured several intense matches including Speedball Mike Bailey winning a six-man ladder match to earn a shot at the AEW International Championship against Kyle Fletcher, who had successfully defended his title against Bandito. Meanwhile, Chris Jericho and Tommaso Ciampa engaged in a brutal No Holds Barred match, culminating with Jericho using a drill to secure a controversial victory. Other notable bouts included The Young Bucks overcoming the team of Jon Moxley and Will Ospreay after an injury to Nick Jackson, and The Dogs defeating The Bang Bang Gang in a violent double chain tag match.

The main event centered on Kenny Omega defending the AEW World Championship against Kevin Knight, a young rising star who showed grit but ultimately fell to Omega’s finishing move, the One Winged Angel. The thrilling conclusion, however, was the surprising post-match turn of events when Will Ospreay defied the attacking Death Riders to save Omega, only to be betrayed moments later as Omega shocked fans by delivering a One Winged Angel to Ospreay. This unexpected betrayal has sparked speculation about Omega’s character direction and possible heel turn.

AEW Redemption 2026 took place at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Canada, with a paid attendance of 5,899 fans. The event was characterized by high-energy performances and storytelling that deepened rivalries and set the stage for future showdowns, notably the AEW All In tag title match. The show maintained robust viewership figures and solidified AEW’s reputation for mixing athleticism, drama, and surprise twists in professional wrestling’s competitive landscape.
