A top current AEW star is not listed among the advertised names for an upcoming huge show that was a big topic on Dynamite last night.
Tony Khan’s teased “important announcement” on last night’s show ended up being that tickets for AEW All In London 2024 at Wembley Stadium go on sale on December 1, or you can sign up to get access before the general public.
After the announcement AEW released a full press release with the details.
On the press release was a list of “the biggest names in professional wrestling” that AEW is advertising for the show, which was as follows:
“AEW: All In London” will feature the biggest names in professional wrestling from a roster that includes stars such as Chris Jericho, Kenny Omega, The Young Bucks, Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, “Hangman” Adam Page, Adam Copeland, Saraya, Christian Cage, Adam Cole, FTR, Bryan Danielson, Kris Statlander, Orange Cassidy, Miro, Dr. Britt Baker, Hikaru Shida, Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs and many more.
Notice anyone missing from that?
Just the small matter of AEW’s current World Champion, MJF.
At this moment in time we can’t say with any certainty why MJF was left off the list, but there is of course the story of his contract coming up at the start of 2024, which maybe plays into it.
Whether that contract situation is legitimate or not is still not 100% clarified, but it’s the story he continues to tell.
AEW All In London 2024 will take place on August 25 – six days before WWE heads to Germany for Bash In Berlin.
Here’s the press release in full:

AEW’s return to the UK comes on the heels of its spectacular debut of “AEW: All In London” this past August, when more than 80,000 fans from over 70 countries converged on Wembley Stadium to witness a thrilling night of match-ups featuring the biggest names in wrestling today. With 81,035 tickets sold, the epic show shattered the world record for the largest ever paid attendance at a professional wrestling event.
“‘AEW: All In London’ permanently etched AEW in the history books, setting the world record for most tickets sold for any show in the history of professional wrestling,” said Tony Khan. “Wembley Stadium also holds a special place in my heart as I’ve now been there as part of three different sports properties, and have witnessed over 80,000 fans in the stands for all three. In addition to Fulham earning two promotions with playoff wins at Wembley Stadium, and the Jaguars winning our ninth ‘home’ game there a few weeks ago, I’ll remember the thunderous cheers from the crowd during ‘AEW: All In’ for the rest of my life.
“Stay tuned for more updates this month ahead of the general public on sale on December 1, and reminder to pre-register on November 27 for access. I can’t wait to return to Wembley Stadium for our second London show next August, which will be even bigger and more spectacular for fans in attendance and those watching around the world.”
