Tony Khan has revealed the first official star for All In at Wembley Stadium in 2024.
After MJF successfully defended the World Championship against Adam Cole in the main event of All In 2023, AEW announced that the company would be returning to London in 2024.
On the November 1st edition of Dynamite, Tony Khan revealed that tickets for All In would go on sale on December 1st. Now, ahead of that date, he has announced the first official name for the show.
During the November 11th episode of Collision, Khan appeared backstage alongside Bryan Danielson. After noting it would be Danielson’s last year as a full-time competitor, Khan announced that he would not miss out at All In 2024.
“Last year at AEW All In, we had an amazing event. The only thing that could’ve made the event better is if we had some of our top stars who were out with injuries. I think the very top of the list would be ‘The American Dragon’ Bryan Danielson.
“I’m very excited that it coincides with the later part of your final year as an active pro wrestler full-time, that you will be at AEW All In 2024 at Wembley Stadium in London.”
Danielson spoke of his excitement about being part of the event and claimed the 2023 edition was the “greatest pro wrestling event he had ever seen.”
“Yeah, I couldn’t be more excited. I sat at home watching All In in 2023 and I just felt the energy.
“I think it was probably the greatest pro wrestling show I have ever seen in my entire life. I cannot wait to be a part of All In in Wembley in 2024.”
