List of All Elite Wrestling pay-per-view events

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of All Elite Wrestling pay-per-view events, detailing all wrestling shows promoted on pay-per-view (PPV) by All Elite Wrestling (AEW).

The MGM Grand Garden Arena hosted All Elite Wrestling's inaugural pay-per-view event Double or Nothing

The formation of AEW was announced on January 1, 2019,[1][2] with the promotion holding its inaugural event, Double or Nothing, which doubled as its inaugural PPV event, on May 25.[3] All In is regarded as AEW's marquee event; furthermore, AEW President and Chief Executive Officer Tony Khan referred to Double or Nothing, All Out, Full Gear, and Revolution as being the promotion's "big four" PPVs later made "big five" with the addition of All In, their five biggest shows of the year, produced roughly quarterly.[4] From March 2020 to July 2021, the majority of AEW's events were held at Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Florida due to the COVID-19 pandemic. AEW began readmitting a limited number of fans in August 2020 and then ran full capacity shows in May 2021 before the promotion returned to live touring in mid-July. In June 2022, AEW added the Forbidden Door PPV event to its yearly lineup, a co-promoted event with New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW), and then further expanded its PPV event schedule in the second half of 2023, adding All In, WrestleDream, and Worlds End in August, October, and December, respectively. Another PPV, Dynasty, was added to the lineup in April 2024, totaling nine PPV events for the year.

AEW PPVs are primarily available in the United States through their television partner HBO Max, who offer the events at a slightly discounted price; other carriers include Amazon Prime Video in the United States, Canada, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom; Triller TV, PPV.com and YouTube in select international markets; and with select traditional PPV outlets, satellite providers, and sports bars in North America.[5][6][7] Each event is preceded by a free pre-show consisting of preliminary matches; from 2019 to 2022, each pre-show held the subtitle "The Buy-In", keeping in line with the promotion's use of casino imagery. After AEW president Tony Khan acquired Ring of Honor (ROH) in 2022, AEW adopted ROH's use of "Zero Hour" as a subtitle for their pre-shows.[a][8] After HBO Max started carrying AEW PPVs in 2025, Zero Hour was retooled into a "barker" preview show, with preliminary matches instead airing on television under the Saturday Tailgate Brawl banner.[9]
