After months of speculations, AEW All Out 2023 was officially confirmed to give relief to the fanbase of All Elite Wrestling. Since the announcement of All In in late August, they were suspicious about AEW possibly canceling their original annual show in September but that’s not the case. Rather, two back-to-back PPVs will be going down, this summer.
During the airing of Forbidden Door 2023, this weekend, AEW All Out 2023 was announced to go down at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois on Sunday, September 3. During that weekend, AEW is promoting taking over Chicago City as they bring the Saturday Night’s Collision show to the same arena on Saturday, August 30.

No word is out regarding when the tickets for AEW All Out 2023 will be on sale. The company will likely release a package of tickets for the three live shows scheduled that week. AEW Dynamite and Rampage will be going down at the Hoffman Estates’ NOW Arena which was the host of the last year’s All Out PPV.

No update is there regarding the plans around AEW All Out 2023 but CM Punk should be a big part of the first September weekend given the PPV weekend is scheduled to take place in his hometown of Chicago, Illinois. Last year, at this event he defeated Jon Moxley to win the AEW World Championship for the second time but backstage controversy and a reported injury forced him to vacate, immediately.
Just a week before AEW All Out 2023, All In will go down on Sunday, August 27 at Wembley Stadium. All In has already sold over 60,000 tickets for the show and there is still no word on how the show will be aired. As All Elite Wrestling gears up for two huge August/September weekends, more announcements regarding the broadcasts are expected to arrive.
It was All In that created doubts over AEW All Out 2023 but during a recent appearance on Barstool Rassin’, Tony Khan already hinted that they were eyeing the Labor Day weekend to host the show,
“We built a great tradition with All Out and this is going to be the fifth year of it. And [we are] coming up on the four-year anniversary of the original All Out, and now, of course, we’re doing All In for the first time in AEW, AEW All In, London. And it would be very fitting for there to be All Out, so stay tuned for more information on that.”
