It’s shaping up to be quite the year for All Elite Wrestling as the landscape of the business continues to change. The company’s current broadcasting rights deal with Warner Bros. Discovery comes up by year’s end, leaving questions of whether Aew remains or lands elsewhere. There has also been an influx of big free-agent signings like Mercedes Moné and returns to TV including Mjf. Tony Khan remains enthusiastic about the company he founded five years ago alongside Cody Rhodes, Kenny Omega, and The Young Bucks. During this time the upstart hasn’t been without growing pains with the brand looking to develop a unique identity compared to what was already in the marketplace. Summer is a pivotal time for Aew starting with Forbidden Door, a collaborative show featuring talent from New Japan Pro Wrestling, World Wonder Ring Stardom, and Mexico’s Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (Cmll) promotion.

Cody Rhodes made an incredible return to WWE after much hustle and bustle. The American Nightmare finally made his worth known as he went on to win the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship by defeating Roman Reigns. Since then, fans have been eagerly waiting to see what the wrestler has in plans for them.

Despite being the new WWE Champion now, Rhodes has not forgotten Aew, the organization that he and others set up as an alternative to other wrestling events. One of the main draws of Aew, the wrestler left it back in 2022. Yet, he has never disrespected his time or his mates there, and in a new interview, Rhodes clapped back at all those who disregard his contribution to Aew.

In WWE, a world where personality is as important as in-ring skills, LA Knight has emerged as a rising star. Known for his catchy promos and undeniable charisma, Knight seemed poised to make it big. But according to wrestling analyst Dave Meltzer, Knight now faces an unexpected obstacle – the return of legend Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

Controversial wrestling superstar Cm Punk has returned to WWE after almost a decade, making a shocking appearance at the end of Saturday’s (November 25) Survivor Series event. Punk, who left WWE in 2014 after a falling out with the company, surprised fans at the conclusion of Saturday’s show when he walked out at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois, just northwest of his home city of Chicago. The 17,000-plus crowd went wild as the Straight Edge Superstar soaked in the atmosphere at the top of the ramp. The return to WWE comes almost three months after Punk was fired from rival wrestling company All Elite Wrestling (Aew) over an alleged backstage altercation with fellow wrestler Jack Perry, son of the late actor Luke Perry. Aew previously suspended Punk in late 2022 after getting into a fight with wrestlers (and EVPs) Kenny Omega, Nick Jackson, and Matt Jackson. “This was one of...

Controversial pro wrestler Cm Punk (real name Phillip Brooks) has been fired by All Elite Wrestling following a backstage altercation last weekend at their biggest show of all time, “All In” at London’s Wembley Stadium. The promotion addressed the decision both in a statement released Saturday afternoon and in the opening of “Aew Collision” on Saturday evening, where Aew promoter Tony Khan gave a more in-depth and personal explanation of the decision.
Khan opened “Collision,” telling viewers, “Today I had to make one of the toughest decisions of my professional career: today I terminated Phil Brooks, Cm Punk, for cause. This stems from a backstage incident at ‘Aew All In’ last Sunday. The incident was regrettable, and it endangered people backstage. That includes the production staff, the people who help put the show on every week, innocent people who had nothing to do with it.”

Match #1: Double Jeopardy Match – Claudio Castagnoli def. Rey Fenix The following is courtesy of allelitewrestling.com:
The winner earns a shot at the other man’s championship. Claudio ducked a reverse kick from Rey Fenix. Claudio caught a flying Rey Fenix and nailed him with a vicious backbreaker. But then Claudio got bounced around with two tope suicidas from Rey Fenix. The third time was not the charm, though, as Claudio caught Rey and then dropped him across the barricade outside the ring. Rey Fenix walked the top of the barricade and clobbered Claudio with a hurracanrana onto the floor. Bryan Danielson and Wheeler Yuta watched the match on a monitor backstage.

The world is in for a treat when All Elite Wrestling sends the signal from Canada Life Center in Winnipeg on Wednesday, March 15.
Aew Dynamite and Aew Rampage will air from Winnipeg on Wednesday and Friday, respectively, marking only the second time that professional wrestling’s newest major player makes the trek north. Jericho is often considered among the greatest professional wrestlers in history and certainly one of the best to ever represent Canada.
In 2018, Jericho left WWE for a dream match against fellow Winnipeg native Kenny Omega. The match was brokered by another Winnipeg professional wrestling personality, Don Callis, and it headlined New Japan Pro Wrestling’s (Njpw) famed Wrestle Kingdom card at the Tokyo Dome. Jericho says it’s fitting for Aew to debut in Winnipeg due to the influence that match had on the eventual formation of Aew.

Another week, another episode of Aew: Dark which this week is a stacked show – not only do we have eleven matches on this card we have appearances by the likes of Kenny Omega, who hasn’t wrestled on Dark in almost Two years! On with the review…
Match #1: Kenny Omega def. Hagane Shinno
My Thoughts: Hagane Shinno’s profile has been slowly building over the weeks until this, what would be a main event match if it was anyone Other than Shinno. Instead he gets to take on Kenny Omega in the opening match of Dark. And Kenny was very giving here, letting Shinno get some near falls and plenty of offence in. A cracking opening to this week’s show.

All Elite Wrestling (Aew) is celebrating the third anniversary of its weekly Wednesday night show, “Dynamite,” and company leader Tony Khan is thrilled to have seen the program grow by leaps and bounds in that time.
“I think we’ve done about 160 episodes of ‘Dynamite’ now, and we’ve learned a lot in the last several years that I think has helped improve the flow of the show,” Khan said in an interview with Variety. “I think we’ve developed a lot of new stars in these three years to where we can put on more consistent great cards week to week.”
The very first episode of “Dynamite” aired on Oct. 2, 2019 on TNT (the show now airs on TBS), but that was not the first Aew card to air on television. The company had already run multiple pay-per-views prior to “Dynamite’s” launch, something Khan credits for a lack of...

Welcome to this review of 2022’s All Out pay-per-view, which once again emanated from Chicago and saw home town boy Cm Punk challenge once again for the Aew World Title and a couple of surprises up its sleeve – but No, I don’t mean new additions to the roster! Let’s get into it…
