Tony Khan has shared an interesting announcement just over a week ahead of AEW All In 2024. The revelation pertained to the company potentially organizing an event outside of the US next year.
All Elite Wrestling will head to the UK next week as the company's weekly television shows Dynamite and Collision are set to emanate from the Utilita Arena in Cardiff, Wales. Afterward, the Jacksonville-based promotion will return to Wembley Stadium for the 2024 iteration of All In. The event already boasts a stacked card, including the highly-anticipated Title vs. Career AEW World Championship match between Swerve Strickland and the challenger, Bryan Danielson.
All Elite Wrestling recently announced that the promotion will hold All In 2025 at the Globe Life Field Stadium in Arlington, Texas, which marks a notable change in venue for the pay-per-view after being hosted in Wembley in 2023 and soon in 2024.
Upon being asked whether the upcoming event will be the company's last presentation in the iconic English stadium during an interview on the Dan Le Batard Show, Tony Khan responded by suggesting that All Elite Wrestling will return to Wembley again, seemingly echoing his prior announcement in which he stated that the company will be going back to London in 2026.
More interestingly, Khan added that AEW will return to England in 2025 as well. He clarified that the company will not be staging next year's edition of All In in the country, but that it was planning a different event.
"We love having AEW at Wembley Stadium and we're back in 2026 in England... (...) Absolutely, we love doing a show in England, and we will be back in England in 2026, and you can bet you will see us there in 2025 as well. It won't be AEW All In, it'll be something different, but we got some big plans coming up next year as well." [0:00 - 1:15]

Backstage reasons behind AEW announcing the venue for All In 2025 earlier than expected
At the end of All In 2023, it was revealed that the pay-per-view would be returning to Wembley Stadium in 2024. However, AEW announced the venue for the 2025 edition of the event several days before its 2024 version, set to be held on August 25.
A recent report from Fightful Select has claimed that AEW revealed The Globe Life Field Stadium as the venue for All In 2025 at the time that it did in order to mitigate fan expectations regarding the announcement at Wembley Stadium later this month.
The report also claimed that talent were not informed about the announcement until it was officially made, in order to prevent the news from being leaked. Although a number of stars were aware that they would be brought to Dallas, Texas this week, they were not told the reason for it.
It remains to be seen how successful All In 2024 turns out to be.
