The card comprised a total of thirteen matches, five of which aired live on Dynamite while the other eight were shown on Rampage on tape delay. In the main event of the Dynamite broadcast, Jon Moxley defeated Bryan Danielson in a tournament final to win the vacant AEW World Championship. Other prominent matches saw The Acclaimed (Anthony Bowens and Max Caster) defeat Swerve In Our Glory (Keith Lee and Swerve Strickland) to win the AEW World Tag Team Championship, and in the opening bout, Chris Jericho defeated Claudio Castagnoli to win the ROH World Championship and his eighth overall world championship.

In September 2021, All Elite Wrestling (AEW) held a two-part television special called Grand Slam, which aired as special episodes of AEW's weekly television programs, Wednesday Night Dynamite and Friday Night Rampage . The event was held in the New York City borough of Queens at the Arthur Ashe Stadium, the main stadium of tennis' US Open, and marked AEW's first event held in New York City, which is primarily known as home territory for WWE, as well as the company's first full event to be held in a stadium. [2] [3] [4]

On May 11, 2022, AEW president Tony Khan confirmed that Grand Slam would return to the Arthur Ashe Stadium later that year and the event would continue forward as an annual event at the same venue. [5] During the Forbidden Door pay-per-view on June 26, the 2022 Grand Slam's date was confirmed for September 21, with Dynamite airing live that night on TBS and Rampage airing on tape delay on September 23 on TNT. Like the previous year, Rampage was expanded to two hours for the Grand Slam special. [6]

Storylines

Grand Slam featured professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches. [7] Storylines were produced on AEW's weekly television programs, Dynamite and Rampage, and the supplementary online streaming shows, Dark and Elevation .

After CM Punk won the AEW World Championship at All Out, [8] Punk got suspended due to a legitimate backstage physical altercation following the event's media scrum. [9] On the following episode of Dynamite, AEW president Tony Khan announced that the AEW World Championship was vacated. A tournament then began that episode to crown a new champion, with the final taking place at Dynamite: Grand Slam. [10]

At All Out, Swerve In Our Glory (Keith Lee and Swerve Strickland) defeated The Acclaimed (Max Caster and Anthony Bowens) to retain the AEW World Tag Team Championship. [8] A championship rematch was then subsequently scheduled for Dynamite: Grand Slam. [10]

On the September 14 episode of Dynamite, after Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. and Serena Deeb defeated interim AEW Women's World Champion Toni Storm and Athena, it was later announced that Storm was scheduled to defend the title in a four-way match against Deeb, Athena, and Baker at Dynamite: Grand Slam. [11]

During the All Out Zero Hour pre-show, AEW All-Atlantic Champion Pac, who had just retained the title, was interrupted by long-time rival Orange Cassidy, who seemingly challenged him to a title match, which Pac immediately declined. [12] After weeks of confrontations between the two, the championship match was scheduled for Dynamite: Grand Slam. [11]

Citing the seven world championships he had won, Chris Jericho confronted ROH World Champion Claudio Castagnoli on the September 16 episode of Rampage and challenged him to a match for the championship, as he had never won the ROH World Championship. Castagnoli accepted and the match was scheduled for Dynamite: Grand Slam. [13]

After Hook defeated Angelo Parker to retain the FTW Championship during the All Out Zero Hour pre-show, Parker's tag team partner, Matt Menard, ambushed Hook until rapper Action Bronson, who wrote Hook's theme song, made the save and took out Menard and Parker. [12] On the September 14 episode of Dynamite, a match pitting Bronson and Hook against Menard and Parker was announced for Rampage: Grand Slam. [11]

Eddie Kingston and Sammy Guevara were originally scheduled to face each other at All Out, however, Kingston was quietly suspended by AEW after getting into a legitimate backstage verbal dispute with Guevara. [14] After Kingston's suspension was lifted, a match between Kingston and Guevara was announced for Rampage: Grand Slam. [13]

At the Fight for the Fallen special episode of Dynamite on July 27, after Ricky Starks lost the FTW Championship, his tag team partner Powerhouse Hobbs attacked him, thus disbanding Team Taz. [15] A match between Starks and Hobbs was scheduled for All Out, which Hobbs won. [8] A rematch between Starks and Hobbs was announced for Rampage: Grand Slam, and was later stipulated to be a Lights Out match. [13]
