The 2025 All In, also promoted as All In: Texas, is an upcoming professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by All Elite Wrestling (AEW). It will be AEW's third annual All In, and the fourth overall. The event will take place on Saturday, July 12, 2025, at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. It will mark AEW's first PPV in Texas, its first at a Major League Baseball stadium, and the first All In to be livestreamed on Amazon Prime Video. The event will also be the first professional wrestling event held at Globe Life Field. Additionally, All In will be AEW’s first afternoon PPV, with a special start time of 2:00 p.m. Central Time (3:00 p.m. Eastern Time), preceded by the Zero Hour pre-show at 12:00 p.m. CT (1:00 p.m. ET).

Production

Background

All In was first held as an independent professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event in September 2018, and was produced by members of The Elite in association with Ring of Honor (ROH), which retained the rights to All In.[1][2] The event inspired the formation of the American promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW) in January 2019,[3] and after AEW president Tony Khan purchased ROH in March 2022,[4] AEW revived All In as their first-ever PPV event held in the United Kingdom, with both the 2023 and 2024 events taking place during the United Kingdom's August Bank Holiday weekend at Wembley Stadium in London, England.[5][6] All In would become AEW's biggest annual event, subsequently regarded as one of the "big five", along with Double or Nothing, All Out, Full Gear, and Revolution, the company's five biggest annual events.[7]

On August 15, 2024, the third All In by AEW, and fourth overall, was announced to be held at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas on Saturday, July 12, 2025, marking AEW's first PPV event held in an American baseball stadium and in the U.S. state of Texas. All In: Texas will also be AEW's first PPV event held in July and will subsequently be the first professional wrestling event held at Globe Life Field.[8] During an appearance on the Rich Eisen Show just a week before the event, Tony Khan stated that they were not at Wembley Stadium for 2025 as the band Coldplay had booked the venue years in advance for a tour that ran through the August Bank Holiday weekend.[9]

Tickets for All In: Texas went on sale on December 9, 2024. Additionally, AEW hosted a free kickoff party at the Texas Live! sports bar adjacent to Globe Life Field on November 20, which included a meet-and-greet with wrestlers from AEW and ROH, as well as early access to purchase tickets for All In: Texas.[10]

On April 2, 2025, it was announced that All In would have a special start time of 2:00 p.m. Central Time (3:00 p.m. Eastern Time).[11] WWE later scheduled The Great American Bash, a livestreaming event for their NXT brand, to run against All In.[12]

Other All In week events

In the week leading up to All In, AEW will host several events. Both Dynamite and Collision will be held live at the Curtis Culwell Center in nearby Garland, Texas on Wednesday, July 9, and Thursday, July 10, respectively. Collision is being preempted from its usual Saturday night time slot due to All In taking place on Saturday.[13] Immediately after Collision, AEW will host a karaoke show in the Champions Ballroom of the Sheraton Arlington Hotel, where fans can sing karaoke with various AEW wrestlers.[14] The hotel will also host the fan convention Starrcast on Friday and Saturday, July 11 and 12. AEW's sister promotion Ring of Honor (ROH) will host their biggest annual pay-per-view, Supercard of Honor, at the Esports Stadium Arlington on July 11.[13] On Saturday morning before All In, AEW will kickoff the event with a "Texas Tailgate" inside Texas Live!'s Shift4 Arena. Immediately after All In, there will be an "After Party" in The Arlington Backyard of Texas Live!. Both events will allow fans to meet various AEW wrestlers and win prizes.[15]

Storylines

All In: Texas will feature professional wrestling matches that are the result of pre-existing feuds and storylines, with results being predetermined by AEW's writers. Storylines are produced on AEW's weekly television programs, Dynamite and Collision.[16]

The Owen Hart Cup is an annual professional wrestling tournament held by AEW in partnership with The Owen Hart Foundation in honor of Owen Hart. It consists of two single-elimination tournaments, one each for men and women. The respective winners receive a trophy called "The Owen", a commemorative championship belt, and a world championship match at All In. Both tournament finals occurred at Double or Nothing on May 25, 2025. The women's tournament was won by Mercedes Moné, who defeated Jamie Hayter and earned an AEW Women's World Championship match against reigning champion "Timeless" Toni Storm. Meanwhile, the men's tournament was won by "Hangman" Adam Page, who defeated Will Ospreay and earned an AEW World Championship match against reigning champion Jon Moxley.[17] On Dynamite 300 on July 2, it was confirmed that the bout between Moxley and Hangman would be contested as a Texas Death match.[18]

Upon winning the 2024 Continental Classic at Worlds End on December 28 and retaining the AEW Continental Championship, Kazuchika Okada was confronted by returning long-time rival Kenny Omega, who had been out of action for over a year due to legitimately being diagnosed with diverticulitis which (in kayfabe) had recently been aggravated following an attack by The Elite (Omega's former stable whom Okada had joined by that time).[19] Omega would go on to win the AEW International Championship at Revolution on March 9, 2025.[20] Following a successful title defense at Dynamite: Fyter Fest on June 4, Omega was confronted by Okada. A Winner Takes All match for both the International Championship and the Continental Championship was then subsequently scheduled for All In.[21] During the contract signing the following week at Dynamite: Summer Blockbuster, Tony Schiavone confirmed that the bout would be a championship unification match to unify the titles as the AEW Unified Championship.[22][23]

On the June 21 episode of Collision, it was announced that a Casino Gauntlet match would be held at All In;[24] it was subsequently revealed that there would be both a men's and women's version of the match with the respective winners receiving a future world championship match.[25] Two four-way matches, one each for the men and women, occurred on the June 25 episode of Dynamite to determine the number one entrants for each, which were respectively won by Mark Briscoe and Kris Statlander.[26] On July 2 at Dynamite 300, The Hurt Syndicate's MJF won a four-way match to become the number two entrant in the men's Gauntlet.[18] On the July 9 episode of Dynamite, a four-way match will occur to determine the number two entrant in the women’s Gauntlet between Megan Bayne, Queen Aminata, Tay Melo, and Thekla.

At Dynasty on April 6, The Young Bucks (Matthew Jackson and Nicholas Jackson) returned after a hiatus since October, and interfered in the main event, assisting Jon Moxley in defeating Swerve Strickland, with Moxley retaining his AEW World Championship.[27] Strickland would feud with both Moxley and his Death Riders stable, and The Young Bucks, culminating in an Anarchy in the Arena match at Double or Nothing on May 25, which Strickland's team won.[28] At Dynamite: Summer Blockbuster on June 11, The Young Bucks renewed their rivalry with Strickland, and attempted to superkick him with shoes that had thumbtacks encrusted on the soles following Strickland's match with Will Ospreay, but Ospreay purposefully moved infront of Strickland and was superkicked instead.[22] On the June 25 episode of Dynamite, Ospreay and Strickland challenged The Young Bucks to a tag team match at All In, but The Young Bucks refused.[26] At Dynamite 300 on July 2, Ospreay and Strickland again challenged The Young Bucks to a match, this time with the added stipulation that if The Young Bucks lost, they would be stripped of their Executive Vice President titles, but if Strickland and Ospreay lost, neither would be able to challenge for the AEW World Championship for one year, and The Young Bucks accepted.[18][29]

At Dynasty in April, Adam Cole defeated Daniel Garcia to win the AEW TNT Championship.[27] After Double or Nothing in May, Cole began a feud with Kyle Fletcher over the title, with Cole defeating Fletcher via disqualification on the May 28 episode of Dynamite.[30] On July 5 at Collision 100, Fletcher defeated Garcia to become the #1 contender for the AEW TNT Championship at All In.[31]
