AEW All In 2023 was a massive success. It was reportedly the most-attended wrestling pay-per-view in history. The historic show was filled with stellar matches involving a plethora of world-class performers. Following last year's success, the pressure is on All Elite Wrestling to deliver a memorable All In 2024 event.
The next couple of months will be very crucial for Tony Khan as AEW prepares for its second trip to Wembley Stadium, London, in August. With the signing of international stars like Will Ospreay, Kazuchika Okada, and Mercedes Mone, All In is set to have a stacked match card for the second year in a row.
Unfortunately, a few major names are currently absent from the AEW programming. While names like Eddie Kingston and Samoa Joe are unlikely to appear at All In, Tony Khan could have some other surprises in the store. In this article, let's look at five AEW stars who could return at AEW All In.
#5. Adam Cole returns at AEW All In
Adam Cole was the star of All In 2023. After winning the ROH World Tag Team Titles with MJF in the Zero Hour segment, The Panama Playboy locked horns with his tag partner in the main event of the historic pay-per-view. As expected, the duo delivered an instant in-ring classic, that kept the Wembley Stadium at the edge of their seats.
The All In main event turned out to be Adam Cole's most memorable moment in 2023, as things soon went downhill for the former NXT Champion. In September 2023, Cole suffered an ankle injury, which has kept him out of action to this day.
Fans recently received a solid update about Cole's potential return to the squared circle. The leader of The Undisputed Kingdom is now able to walk on his own, and there may not be much time left before he returns to the ring.
If The Panama Playboy gets fit by next month, All In would be the perfect place for him to make his much-anticipated comeback. Not only will it lead to a huge pop for Cole, but it would also add some much-needed star power to the All In card.
#4. Paul Wight shows up at Wembley Stadium
Since his debut in 2021, Paul Wight has made sporadic onscreen appearances in the Jacksonville-based promotion. However, the World's Largest Athlete still remains a popular commodity among the fans, who Tony Khan may consider adding to the All In 2024 card.
The gigantic star also appeared at All In 2023, where he knocked out another fellow giant Satnam Singh. Considering the huge pop he got last year, it would not be surprising if Paul Wight shows up at All In 2024.
Chris Jericho recently took out Samoa Joe on the latest episode of Dynamite. The shocking assault has left Hook outnumbered in his war against the Learning Tree. Now that The Destroyer is out of the equation, Paul Wight could come to Hook's aid at All In to teach his former ally a painful lesson.
#3. Sammy Guevara returns from a six-month-long absence
Sammy Guevara was last seen on AEW television in February 2024. The Spanish God battled Jeff Hardy in a No Disqualification match on AEW Rampage, where he injured Hardy's nose with a miscued Shooting Star Press.
It turned out to be Guevara's final appearance for a while, as Mr. Money's Worth was handed an indefinite suspension for not following the "No Concussion" protocol.
Although Guevara now seems ready to come back, Tony Khan might consider holding on to his return till All In 2024. The Spanish God's appearance could be a genuine surprise for the London audience, who might not be expecting the former TNT Champion on the show.
From rejoining Chris Jericho to going after a specific mid-card title, there are several directions Sammy Guevara could explore upon his return at All In 2024.
#2. Kenny Omega arrives at Wembley Stadium to mess with The New Elite
Kenny Omega made a shocking revelation to the wrestling world in December 2023. The Best Bout Machine announced that he had been diagnosed with Diverticulitis, which will keep him out of action for a long time.
The Cleaner recently underwent surgery to speed up his recovery process, hoping to make his return as soon as possible. If Omega recovers from his condition in time, Wembley Stadium could witness his epic in-ring return at the upcoming All In pay-per-view.
Even if Kenny Omega does not get fully fit by All In, there is a high chance that he will appear at the grand annual event. Arguably AEW's biggest star, it is unlikely that Tony Khan would want to leave out The Cleaner from the company’s biggest show of the year.
The former AEW World Champion could appear in a non-wrestling capacity, possibly as an opposing force to a rampant New Elite.
#1. Jamie Hayter sends shockwaves with her return at All In
Following a dominant run as the AEW Women's Champion, Jamie Hayter lost her title against Toni Storm in May 2023. Since then, the ever-shiniest striker has remained sidelined due to an injury, with not much information regarding her in-ring return.
In a surprising update, Hayter was found to be backstage at the recent edition of AEW Dynamite. Although there is still no definite timeframe regarding her return, her backstage appearance appears as a positive sign regarding her ongoing recovery process.
The British Superstar has not revealed anything about her possible comeback, even though a few creative pitches have been made for her next AEW appearance.
Having been absent for about 13 months, Hayter could leave her home audience in shock by making her return at All In 2024. With Britt Baker set to collide against Mercedes Mone at All In, Hayter already has the perfect story to mark her comeback in the AEW Women's division.
The ever-shiniest striker could cost The DMD her TBS Championship against Mone, kicking off a personal rivalry that had been teased multiple times in the past.
