Definitely AEW has recovered sensations. That eslogan On which the luchística community of the Internet had so much weight Year and a half ago it could be stretched until this Saturday, July 12, when the elite celebrate its third edition of All In, now from the US, in a weekend where you will find all possible competition by WWE.
Without falling in cheap hyperboles, All in: Texas is AEW's most transcendent event from el primer Double or Nothing.
► Go big or go home
Bryan Danielson's defeat in Wrestledream 2024 at the hands of Jon Moxley marked the beginning of the Death Riders arch and his kidnapping of the AEW World Championship, in Post, according to their arguments, of making the company's talents aroused and reimpulsed the product. Within the “Kayfababe”, this was exposed how a fake argument of Moxley and Cía, but it really Such history has ended up getting AEW to look cohesivewith the common objective of offering the best possible wrestling, leaving behind the trauma of the exit of CM Punk, which drew a stamp of a little serious, secondary and even failed product in the eyes of many; When, as I mentioned, it was more than a vitiated perception than anything else.
“Hangman” Page and his own arc of redemption – post -traumatic stress included – symbolize that company trip During the last year and a half, and although Darby Allin aimed to be the one who took out the AEW World Championship from the Death Riders briefcase, the choice seems logical. In a passage from your book Killing the Business: From Backyards to the Big LeaguesMatt and Nick Jackson admit that from minute one, they built AEW with the idea in mind of turning Page into their main face.
Therefore, although in the conception of the fight that AEW has, it supposes something secondary, The stellar result will mark all in: Texas. Almost a year ago, the elite offered the final “fan service” with All in 2024, whose “main event” remains in the collective memory of the followers precisely because of their result. Swerve Strickland was able to retain the world title and the trip would have been very enjoyable, but the differentiator was in the victory of Bryan Danielson.
This year, considering the amount of successful and little satisfactory defenses of Moxley and considering the appointment, mouth of all creative efforts during the season, the result is not negotiable. If Tony Khan intends that there: Texas becomes the best show produced by AEW, everything starts there.
I recover the most recent statements granted by Moxley to Justin Barraso, about Page.
«The walls close. It is about to reach the top of a personal mountain that has been climbing for two or three years. He created all this with his emotional luggage, with his own shit, and the rest could not even explain it … he would have to ask him. But he has been looking for something for a long time. AND If you don't succeed, the fall will be very long and very painful».
Imagine the importance of that Moxley vs. Page so that a whole Kenny Omega vs. Kazuchika Okada For the International Championship and the Continental Championship It will not be the star clash of All In: Texas.
Perhaps event size had to be reserved in order to establish the great “main event” of another PPV, without as much size as possible opactors. That AEW has decided to include it in All In: Texas reveals the hopes deposited in this event and the ambitious of its commitment. And I don't know if I would have also made history without Omega and Okada under stipulation “Winner Takes All”, because it has been reported, it is already the show foreign to WWE more grossing on American soil.
In any case, surely “The Best Bout Machine” and “The Rainmaker” enjoy the necessary time to combine, at least, something that honors its previous clashes. It is appreciated that at this point, and without being able to avoid the physical decrease of Omega seven years after that incomparable “Best Two Out of Three Falls”, The Canadian and the Japanese want to offer a new twist at the risk of shaving an imperishable legacy.
Together with Moxley vs. Page and Okada vs. Omega, the current story of Rudos vs. technicians with AEW's own future as a backdrop, which everything for the whole, “all in”, in one hand, is completed by means of The Young Bucks vs. Swerve Strickland y Will Ospreay. And here, as in that Moxley vs. Page, the result will almost import more than the quality of the shock (expected high). In case of winning the first, Strickland and Ospreay will not be able to fight for the AEW World Championship for a year. In case of winning these, Matt and Nick Jackson must leave their positions of AEW executive vice presidents. The potential creative repercussions for any of the scenarios seem very interesting; Although bucks really have more to lose, because their grievance would be, in theory, perennial.
But above that duplic clash, the third most promoted point of All In: Texas is The defense that Toni Storm will face against Mercedes Moné. Oblivious to the narrative framework of «AEW vs. Death Riders and The Elite », but with an esteemed construction, selling Mono as the greatest threat not only for the Storm reign, but for its stardom and female condition of the product, The intrigue falls to SI AEW will also schedule without reservations, And this would imply that Mono beat and retain his individual, there is a rematch on the agenda or not.
And among the least promoted points, I anticipate that The duel between Adam Cole and Kyle Fletcher for the TNT championship supposes the “surprise” of All In: Texas And also AEW decides to tighten the trigger and consume the change of monarch, in order to start the definitive promotion of Fletcher, who would get his first gold assigned to the elite house.
Everything is bigger in Texas, they say, and assumed that the “In-Ring” factor always accompanies AEW, The results of certain fighting will define this Yankee version of Allwhere, by situation, the faithful follower will want these creative decisions to honor the title of the PPV. Thus, AEW has the opportunity to confirm its return with a brave “Bookeo”, in addition, under a time strip that will unusual, allow live monitoring in territories (especially the European) accustomed to deferred visualization. “What Better Place Than Here, What Better Time Than Now?”, What would Rage Against The Machine say.
