As for the premiere episode, the show sold out on Friday within hours of tickets going on-sale. Fans stated that no tickets were available within mere minutes, though this was later attributed to a glitch from Ticket Master.
The debut episode will feature Rhodes vs. Sammy Guevara, Omega and The Bucks vs. Chris Jericho and two mystery partners in a six-man tag match, an appearance from Jon Moxley and a match to crown the first AEW Women’s World Champion.
The tournament for the AEW World Tag Team Championships is also expected to start on that show. While a bracket has not been released, The Best Friends (Trent Beretta and Chuck Taylor) will take on The Dark Order (Evil Uno and Stu Grayson) at the All Out event to decide which team gets a first-round bye.
