All Out is an annual professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event held in September by All Elite Wrestling (AEW) since 2019. It is one of AEW's "Big Five" PPVs, which also includes All In, Double or Nothing, Full Gear, and Revolution, their five biggest annual shows produced throughout the year. [1]

On May 20, 2025, the Toronto Sun reported that the seventh annual All Out would take place on Saturday, September 20, 2025, at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, breaking AEW's tradition of hosting the event in the Chicago metropolitan area, and subsequently in the United States, as all prior non-COVID-19 pandemic era events were held either at Now Arena in the Chicago suburb of Hoffman Estates, Illinois, or at Chicago's United Center for the 2023 event. [2] It will also mark AEW's second PPV event to take place in Canada and at this venue, after Forbidden Door in 2023. Tickets went on sale on June 2. [3]

Broadcast

All Elite Wrestling pay-per-view events are available on Prime Video in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. In the United States, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, they are also offered via traditional cable and satellite providers, including DirecTV, Sling TV, and Dish Network, as well as through PPV.com and YouTube. In Canada, PPVs are additionally available through major cable and satellite providers, along with PPV.com and YouTube. Select international markets can access events through PPV.com, Triller TV, and YouTube. AEW PPVs are also shown at all Dave & Buster's and Tom’s Watch Bar locations across the United States. [4] On September 3, 2025, it was announced that beginning with All Out, AEW pay-per-views would be available to purchase in the United States via HBO Max; it will be sold at a discounted price of $39.99, as opposed to the $49.99 price via other outlets. [5] [6]

The go-home show, September to Remember, which will simulcast TBS and HBO Max on September 17 from Canada Life Place in London, Ontario, consisting of Dynamite , a special one-hour episode of Collision , and the half-hour special Countdown to All Out. [7] All Out is scheduled for a 3 p.m. Eastern Time start, preceded by the pre-show Saturday Tailgate Brawl: All Out at 2 p.m. ET, which will air on TNT. [5] The event was originally scheduled for a start time of 8 p.m. ET, but on September 3, 2025, it was announced that the event would be moved up to 3 p.m. ET to prevent a direct counterprogramming attempt by WWE's Wrestlepalooza. This would have been the first AEW PPV event to go head-to-head with a WWE main roster PLE, as previously, only select WWE NXT livestreaming events had aired directly against AEW's PPVs. [8]

Storylines

All Out will feature professional wrestling matches that involve different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. [9] Storylines are produced on AEW's weekly television programs, Dynamite and Collision .

At Fight for the Fallen on January 1, 2025, Adam Copeland teamed with FTR (Cash Wheeler and Dax Harwood) as the trio Rated-FTR and defeated Death Riders (Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, and Wheeler Yuta). On the January 4 episode of Collision, Rated-FTR defeated The Learning Tree (Big Bill, Bryan Keith, and Chris Jericho), establishing themselves as a trio. Copeland continued his feud with the Death Riders, losing in a Brisbane Brawl with Jay White at Grand Slam Australia and unsuccessfully challenging Moxley for the AEW World Championship at Revolution. At Dynasty on April 6, Rated-FTR unsuccessfully challenged the Death Riders (Castagnoli, Pac, and Yuta) for the AEW World Trios Championship. After the match, FTR attacked Copeland, turning heel in the process. Three months later at All In on July 12, Copeland returned and rescued Christian Cage from a post-match beatdown by FTR and The Patriarchy. Copeland and Cage reunited as a tag team at Forbidden Door and defeated The Patriarchy (Killswitch and Kip Sabian). It was their first time teaming since 2011. On the August 27 episode of Dynamite, Copeland and Cage challenged FTR to a match at All Out, which was later made official.
