We were honored to learn this week that AEW and its Stars
were the recipients of 21 Fightful Awards recognizing the
best of professional wrestling in 2025, adding to the list
of “Best of 2025” awards AEW has won from ESPN, Sports
Illustrated and other top wrestling journalists and
publications.
In the 2025 Fightful Awards, AEW took home Promotion of the
Year and Event of the Year (for AEW All In: Texas), while
AEW CEO and GM Tony Khan was also named Booker of the Year.
“Timeless” Toni Storm and “Hangman” Adam Page were named the
Best Women’s and Men’s Overall Performers, respectively.
Page and Storm also won the Men’s and Women’s Best On Promos
awards, with Storm taking home the awards for Best
Individual Promo and Best Women’s Match (for her match
against Mariah May). Page and Will Ospreay won the award for
