AEW All In 2026 Results and Live Updates Amid New Day Rumors

The Empty Seats of Wembley Stadium
The upcoming AEW All In event at Wembley Stadium in London appears to be struggling with ticket sales, despite featuring big-name matches. According to the latest numbers, just over 44,000 tickets have been sold for the 90,000-seat venue, which could make this one of the worst-attended events in AEW history.
This contrasts sharply with WWE’s SummerSlam 2026 success, where a last-minute surge in ticket sales was reported. The increase has been attributed to “papered” seats and give-away tickets. While it remains unclear how AEW’s final gate sales will compare, one thing is certain: the promotion needs to improve its ticket sales if it wants to match its past successes.
AEW’s struggles with ticket sales are not new. Since their Wembley Stadium debut in 2019, when they drew 72,265 fans, ticket sales have been steadily declining. Last year’s All In Texas event saw significantly lower attendance numbers than initially reported.
The lack of transparency surrounding AEW’s ticket sales is also concerning. Unlike WWE, which has a reputation for making bold claims about its live gate revenue, AEW seems to be keeping a low profile. While this may be seen as a positive development by some, it’s hard not to wonder what’s really going on behind the scenes.
The upcoming event features several high-profile matches, including a women’s world title bout between Mercedes Mone and Willow Nightingale. However, with the main event – Kenny Omega versus Will Ospreay – pushed back due to last-minute changes, something is missing from the lineup.
AEW has emphasized that this will be its biggest show yet, but when you look at the numbers, it’s hard to see what all the fuss is about. Unless AEW can turn things around and start selling tickets in droves, this event could end up being a major embarrassment for the promotion.
As fans wait with bated breath for the results of All In 2026, one thing is certain: the future of AEW’s live events hangs precariously in the balance. With WWE breathing down its neck and fans increasingly expecting more from their promotions, it will take more than just a few big-name matches to get things back on track.
The real question now is whether AEW can learn from its mistakes and adapt quickly enough to save face. The clock is ticking – and the empty seats at Wembley Stadium are a stark reminder that time is running out.

AEW's struggles with ticket sales are a symptom of a larger issue: their inability to execute a well-structured marketing strategy. While they've made strides in promoting individual matches and talent, their overall event branding and promotion leaves much to be desired. The empty seats at Wembley Stadium are a stark reminder that you can't just slap together a decent lineup and expect ticket sales to follow suit. AEW needs to take a step back and reassess how they're packaging and selling these events if they want to truly compete with WWE.

The numbers just don't add up for AEW All In at Wembley Stadium. Despite touting this as their biggest show yet, they're coming up short on ticket sales. The real question is: can they salvage it with last-minute shenanigans like WWE's papered seats? That's not a sustainable business model, and the lack of transparency only fuels speculation about AEW's financial struggles. With big-name matches and no apparent plan to fill the stadium, this event risks being a costly embarrassment for the promotion.

AEW needs to take a hard look at their marketing strategy if they want to match WWE's numbers. While ticket sales might be declining overall, perhaps they're prioritizing profit over attendance? With the likes of Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay on board, you'd think they could sell out Wembley without breaking a sweat. But it seems like something's gone wrong behind the scenes. AEW needs to get real about their numbers and make some tough decisions if they want to stay competitive. Until then, the Empty Seats of Wembley Stadium will continue to haunt them.
