Kenny Omega has spoken about the importance of All In and All Out being seen as distinct shows, despite the events being one week apart.
AEW All In will take place on August 27, at Wembley Stadium in London, England, marking AEW’s first event outside of North America.
One week later, AEW All Out will take place on September 3, from the United Center in Chicago, Illinois.
Speaking to “Uproxx” about the events, Omega highlighted the need for the shows to be different. He said,
“Not to say that it should be a split roster and you see completely different people on both shows, but I do think that there needs to be matches that are features and very special for one evening. I think you need matches that are featured and are very special at the other one.
“If you’re just using the same 20, 30 guys over and over and over again, you’re going to have a lot of these special athletes just sitting on the sidelines waiting for their chance to perform. But I think for sure you’re going to see some people on one show that aren’t on another. And I look at that in a positive way because I do want the AEW fans or just fans of wrestling to be able to see more faces.”
No names or matches have been confirmed for either All In or All Out though it is rumored that Omega will face IWGP U.S. Heavyweight Champion Will Ospreay in London.
