Dug picked a hell of a night to go out of town, so Mike steps in alongside Tim for a full review of AEW All Out 2026 .

They start with the Heat Check before breaking down a show that lands somewhere in the B/B-plus range by AEW’s ridiculously high pay-per-view standards. Will Ospreay retains the AEW World Championship against Jon Moxley, but the aftermath has Tim and Mike wondering if AEW is finally ready to pull the trigger on the long-teased Death Riders civil war. They also look ahead to what’s next for Ospreay and whether AEW should take its time with the relationship between Ospreay and Andrade.

Plus, Kazuchika Okada and Tommaso Ciampa deliver a Match of the Night contender, the Young Bucks reclaim the AEW World Tag Team Championships in the not-TLC TLC match, and Swerve Strickland and The New Level battle Hangman Page and Brodido in an outstanding Trios Championship match. Andrade vs. PAC, the scary ending to Steven Borden and Darby Allin vs. Proto Jet, Persephone vs. Dani Luna, the Brawling Birds and Divine Dominion getting violent, Willow Nightingale vs. Thekla, a Wardlow sighting, the greatness of Coach Juice, and the sprint toward WrestleDream.

AEW packed Dynamite and Collision into one massive three hour All Out go home show, and Tim and Dug have a LOT to unpack.

The night started hot with Swerve Strickland and New Level defending the AEW World Trios Championships against The Demand in the match of the night. Plus, “Speedball” Mike Bailey officially joins Will Ospreay’s United Empire, Ospreay and Jon Moxley have their final confrontation before All Out, and Tommaso Ciampa and Kazuchika Okada add some heat to their International Championship match.

On the Collision side, Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight continue to click as “Proto Jet,” Darby Allin and Steve Borden look toward the tag title picture, Thekla continues to be one of AEW’s best promos, and Tim and Dug strongly disagree over Chris Jericho and Nick Wayne’s very long conversation.

They also break down Persephone’s All Out open challenge, Britt Baker’s night on commentary, Queen Aminata vs. Skye Blue, and PAC vs. Ace Austin.

Then it’s prediction time: Tim and Dug run through the All Out card and make their picks for Ospreay vs. Moxley, Okada vs. Ciampa, Thekla vs. Willow Nightingale, the three-way tag team ladder match, the Trios Championship match and more.

AEW Dynamite from Norfolk gave Tim and Dug plenty to like, and plenty to question.

They break down Chris Jericho vs. Nick Wayne and why the match worked better than expected, while wondering why AEW needed to make Nick’s necklace such a major part of the story. They also look at Thekla’s continued rise, Mercedes Moné being ruled out of All Out, and why Willow Nightingale vs. Thekla may actually be the more interesting direction.

Plus: Brody King’s excellent in-ring instincts, The Demand looking like a legitimate threat, Jack Perry calling out Samoa Joe, Jamie Hayter vs. Lena Kross making a case for Match of the Night, and whether the Brawling Birds need help finding their voice in promos.

Then it’s all about the main event as the Death Riders battle United Empire. The wrestling delivered, but did Jon Moxley’s post-match attack move his character backward and undermine the brewing tension within the Death Riders?

Tim and Dug also name their Match of the Night and the best overall segment from Dynamite.

AEW’s Rebel Heart special delivered one of the most emotional Dynamites in recent memory, and Tim and Dug are breaking down a night that had them reaching for the tissues more than once.

They discuss AEW’s tribute to Andy “The Butcher” Williams, Rebel’s emotional appearance during the women’s trios match, and why AEW continues to handle these deeply personal shows so well.

Plus: Swerve Strickland and The New Level continue to click, Hangman’s current direction still feels awkward, Steven Borden shows off some ridiculous athleticism, Andrade and The Beast Mortos deliver, Will Ospreay battles David Finlay, and Thekla and Mercedes Moné steal the show on the microphone.

Then things get weird when Tim and Dug somehow fantasy book Wheeler Yuta as the man who could blow up the Death Riders from within.

Also discussed:

• Britt Baker’s return to The Waiting Room
• The growing tension around Roderick Strong
• Hangman and Brodido’s trios title direction
• Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight clicking as a team
• FTR costing the Young Bucks in the tables match
• Possible cracks forming inside the Death Riders
• Buddy Matthews, Sheamus and United Empire speculation
• And, unfortunately, mayo in swim trunks

AEW had a lot of questions to answer coming out of All In and this week’s Dynamite wasted very little time answering them.

Tim and Dug break down a loaded post-All In show as new AEW World Champion Will Ospreay teases building his own version of United Empire and suddenly learns that Jon Moxley will be his first challenger at All Out. They also dig into MJF’s fantastic post-All In promo and what his warning to Ospreay could mean over the next several months.

Plus: Swerve and New Level tear it up with The Rascalz, the Young Bucks, FTR and Cope & Christian set the stage for a huge ladder match, Darby Allin survives Mark Davis before Josh Alexander returns, Megan Bayne and Alex Windsor deliver a match-of-the-night contender, Thekla crashes Mercedes Moné’s celebration, Britt Baker and Persephone continue their alliance, and Chris Jericho finds a very interesting new foil in Nick Wayne.

Was this the perfect way for AEW to follow up All In? Tim and Dug run through what worked, what didn’t, and why the road to All Out suddenly looks very promising.

AEW All In: London 2026 is in the books, and Tim and Dug are calling it one of the best nights of professional wrestling they’ve ever seen.

They break down the entire show from Wembley Stadium, including Will Ospreay and Kenny Omega delivering an emotional classic for the AEW World Championship, the AEW debut of Kofi and Austin Creed as The New Level alongside Swerve Strickland, and Britt Baker’s shocking return.

Plus: Mercedes Moné and Willow Nightingale in an epic battle for the AEW Women’s World Championship, Darby Allin goes completely insane against Kevin Knight, Kazuchika Okada faces Kyle Fletcher and Konosuke Takeshita, Andrade wins the best Casino Gauntlet match yet, Cage and Cope clash with the Young Bucks, and the Brawling Birds challenge Divine Dominion.

There are a few things to nitpick, including some rough early technical issues, Jon Moxley retaining against Nigel McGuinness, and a couple of booking decisions, but after six-and-a-half hours, the biggest takeaway is simple: AEW absolutely crushed its biggest show of the year.

Four days before AEW All In: London, Dynamite delivered plenty of good wrestling, but did the go-home show actually create enough heat for Wembley?

Tim and Dug break down the final Dynamite before All In, including Will Ospreay’s last words for Kenny Omega, Jon Moxley vs. Claudio Castagnoli in the Continental Challenge Cup, and Nigel McGuinness continuing his unlikely run toward a championship match at Wembley.

They also discuss Christian Cage blowing up the uneasy alliance between Adam Copeland and the Young Bucks, Mercedes Moné attacking Willow Nightingale, Andrade continuing to thrive in his feud with MJF, and AEW finally giving fans more names to watch for in the Casino Gauntlet.

Plus: a surprisingly great women’s trios match featuring Maya World, Persephone, Divine Dominion and the Brawling Birds; Swerve Strickland and Jungle Jack Perry stealing the show in the main event; the growing questions around AEW’s World Title picture after All In; and some very irresponsible Casino Gauntlet fantasy booking involving Stone Cold Steve Austin, Bret Hart and Teddy Hart.

AEW All In: London is less than two weeks away, and Dynamite delivered a show that was good…but also weird. Tim and Dug break down Kenny Omega going full heel on Will Ospreay, including their tense sit-down interview and Omega’s brutal attack to close the show. Plus, Jon Moxley and Jay White deliver a Match of the Night contender, but was AEW wrong to have Mox advance in the Continental Challenge Cup?

Also on the show: Maya World survives a fantastic TBS Championship four-way, Mercedes Moné and Willow Nightingale come to blows, Konosuke Takeshita targets Kyle Fletcher, AEW remembers it has a trios division, Kevin Knight blows up Darby Allin, and the guys try to figure out exactly what Swerve Strickland has planned for Wembley.

Plus: Why AEW needs to finally pull the trigger on Jay White, the Brawling Birds story still isn’t clicking, and Dug celebrates another trip around the sun.
