Tony Khan hopes to achieve this feat during the 2025 AEW All In.
For two consecutive years in 2023 and 2024, AEW hosted their All In PPV at the respectable Wembley Stadium in London. However, after two straight years, the show has taken a reroute and is set to host their next PPV in the USA.
Scheduled to take place from the Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, Tony Khan is hopeful to put on a great night. The past two years’ shows in London broke multiple records and produced several memorable moments. Speaking to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, the AEW President discussed presenting the show in Texas.
This is a great venue. It’s going to be a great venue for pro wrestling. I love the wrestling business so much and one of the great things about wrestling is all the different places pro wrestling is permeated. The Texas wrestling fans, and in particular around the Dallas Metroplex and in Arlington, these are great wrestling fans and a great tradition and great history of pro wrestling.
We’re really tapped into that, and I’m looking forward, in the coming months, to AEW becoming a bigger and bigger part of this community. We came here for the AEW Collision residency and we had such a great experience here.
I really believe in the vision and this dream of AEW at Globe Life Field. We’re here now and I have to say, it feel like it was the right call. I love it here. It’s a great venue, and I can feel the energy that AEW is going to bring and the energy the fans here in this community and in Texas and all over America and all over the world are going to bring to All In 2025. It’s going to be a great night of wrestling. When the fans find out what we have in store, this thing is going to fill up and it’s going to be a great night when AEW All In makes its debut in America.”
Speaking further, he promised to clear what is next for the promotion in 2025. Starting in January 2025, the Jacksonville-based promotion is set to move to Max and simulcast. Promising to go all-in at the namesake PPV, he said:
I promise in the months to come, as things crystallize and become more clear about what’s happening in AEW, and what the future is for 2025, I promise that AEW is going all in on All In Texas.”

AEW has suffered a fall in ratings in the past few weeks, while Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff simultaneously blamed Khan for TBS Champion Mercedes Mone’s current booking.
Eric Bischoff Believes ‘Clueless’ Tony Khan Is To Be Blamed For Mercedes Mone’s Current Booking
Speaking on the recent episode of his 83 Weeks podcast, Eric Bischoff called out Mercedes Mone’s current run as a disaster. However, instead of blaming the star, he called out Tony Khan for his booking choices and blamed him for the lackluster run.
I don’t care. Honestly, half the time, I don’t know she’s stepped in here because I don’t know this, but she has her own locker room. So she says she’s here to help and she cares so much? So come into our locker room. Come into our tiny little locker room and help us, teach us, share your knowledge from all these years of experience you’ve apparently had. But no, she’s sitting in her locker room, and she’s writing her Mone Mag.
I mean, how many people are reading that magazine? Who actually cares about your magazine? Because I care about women’s wrestling, and I care about being on the show and getting more than 10 minutes. So if you care, come step in the room with me. Because I think I’m better.”
