All Elite Wrestling officially put on their third-ever event during Labor Day weekend. They crowned their first Heavyweight champion and set the table for their first women’s title holder.
‘All Out’ was one of the most anticipated wrestling shows to happen since their ‘Double or Nothing’ pay-per-view during Memorial Day weekend. The show sold out within minutes, even if there were rumors that some tickets bypassed consumers and went straight to the secondary market (the rumors have been unfounded).
There were a few hiccups that happened that were out of their control just days before the show. They lost one of the wrestlers in the co-main event when Jon Moxley announced that he was battling a reoccurring staph infection in his elbow and had to pull out of his advertised match with Kenny Omega. AEW wasted no time and filled the void with PAC, which was an equivalent talent for the spot. Also, Fenix of the Lucha Brothers tweaked his knee the previous weekend and threatened his participation, but he battled through the injury and was able to wrestle The Young Bucks in a banger of a match.
