The promotion, owned by Shahid and Tony Khan, has made Toronto a regular stop on its treks into Canada in recent years. In 2024, Canadians Adam (Cope) Copeland and Christian Cage squared off in a memorable match at Coca-Cola Coliseum in Toronto. In 2023, Scotiabank Arena hosted Forbidden Door, one of the promotion’s most successful events in its brief history.
“I can’t wait for AEW to make our return,” Tony Khan told the Sun in an exclusive interview ahead of the announcement. “That’s going to be so exciting. It’s the first-ever international AEW All Out pay-per-view. It’s been one of the biggest pay-per-views in AEW traditionally. I’m so thrilled that we’re doing it.”
Khan also noted that this will mark the first time its All Out event will venture outside of Chicago, where it originated, since the COVID-19 pandemic, which forced it south to Florida.
“I think that bringing AEW All Out into a new market, Toronto in particular, is exciting,” Khan said. “Forbidden Door was one of the best shows we’ve ever done,” Khan said. “It was a great, great event. I really put that on my Mount Rushmore of the best shows we’ve ever done. It’s going to be a high standard that we’ve set for ourselves in Toronto.”
Khan recalled travelling to Toronto to watch wrestling while he was in college.
“Toronto is one of the greatest wrestling cities on the planet,” he said. “When I was in college, I went on Spring Break to Toronto to watch wrestling. It’s definitely one of my Top 4 wrestling cities on the planet.”
AEW has also hosted events in Ottawa, Hamilton and London, as well as across Canada in its short existence. Founded by Khan in 2019, AEW presents more than 100 live events a year around the world.
The AEW roster also features several Canadians, including Cope and Christian Cage, as well as Chris Jericho, Kenny Omega, Evil Uno, Renee Paquette, Josh Alexander, Speedball Mike Bailey and main attractions such as Jon Moxley, Toni Storm, Mercedes Mone, The Hurt Syndicate and others.
