Apart from The Young Bucks, Jack Perry, and Mercedes Mone,
all the other champions are leaving London with less items
in their carry-on luggage with several “changing of the
guard” moments throughout the four-hour broadcast.
There are new AEW Trios tag team champs in town as Claudio
Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, and Pac won the four-way London
ladder match, ending The Patriarchy’s reign. It was Pac, who
was originally scheduled to team up with the Lucha Bros in
this match, who grabbed one of the titles to secure the
victory.
The timeless era is over as Toni Storm’s reign of 281 days
as AEW Women’s champion came to a halt at All In, with
Mariah May defeating her former friend. Storm won the title
from Hikaru Shida back in November 2023 at Full Gear and had
a very successful run with the belt, climbing to the second
place of the most with combined days behind Shida. This is
May’s first run with a title in AEW since she signed with
the promotion.
Hook became a three-time FTW champion after he beat Chris
Jericho in a last chance match. Hook’s odds were greatly
against him with Bryan Keith and Big Bill constantly
interfering but Hook’s dad, Taz, had enough on commentary at
one point and locked in the Tazmission on Keith as his son
did the same on Jericho, who tapped out.
Britain’s favorite Will Ospreay had a classic match with MJF
which resulted in a new champion being crowned. Ospreay won
the match after hitting the Tiger Driver and a little assist
from the returning Daniel Garcia. The AEW American title is
now no more and the AEW International title is back as
Ospreay didn’t even want to touch it after he won.
Christopher Daniels ran down to hand Ospreay the original
title. Needless to say, Ospreay was the true star of this
show and was over like crazy.
And to finish off the pay-per-view, Bryan Danielson won his
first AEW World title after he defeated Swerve Strickland in
a career vs title match with his family by his side.
Danielson, sporting a crimson mask, made Strickland tap out
to send the Wembley crowd into frenzy. The crowd was firmly
behind the American Dragon, popping for every time he breaks
the pinfall and chanting “Yes! Yes! Yes!” throughout the
match. After the match was over, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler
Yuta, and Pac came out to celebrate with Bryan. His wife
Brie, daughter Birdie, and son Buddy also joined in the
ring, with the two kids clearly enjoying themselves even
though it was probably way past their bed time!
