Bryan Danielson is going all in at All In.

‘The American Dragon’s’ storied career is seemingly reaching its end, with the multi-time world champion upping the ante and putting his career on the line vs. Swerve Strickland on Sunday. While he’s used to holding gold, Danielson is still searching for that first AEW championship win, and the stakes couldn’t be any higher when he squares off against the AEW champ in Wembley Stadium.

A Danielson victory would not only cement his legacy as one of the best in the world today, but one of the greatest, if not the greatest, of all time. He faces a tough task against Strickland, who has been dominant since defeating Samoa Joe and ‘Hangman’ Adam Page for the strap in March.

Elsewhere on the card, several championships will be defended: Dr. Britt Baker will vie for Mercedes Moné’s TBS title, while Toni Storm looks to hold off former protégé Mariah May when they grapple for the AEW women’s championship.

Will Ospreay will also defend home turf when he faces MJF for the International – well, temporarily the American – championship.

USA TODAY Sports will provide live updates, match grades and more from All In 2024 below.

HOOK defeats Chris Jericho to regain the FTW championship
The Young Bucks defeat FTR and the Acclaimed to retain AEW tag team championship

The Young Bucks (c) vs. FTR vs. The Acclaimed

The AEW tag team division has taken a turn for the worse in recent years after being one of the hottest divisions in the wrestling world. While slapping the titles on the Bucks is almost always the right decision for a course correction, the tag titles haven’t been in the spotlight as much as they should have been leading into this three-way feud and match.

Both The Acclaimed and FTR have been ice cold heading into this match, and the crowd wasn’t buying the bout until it neared its end. It was fine enough, but it felt totally inconsequential.

Winners: The Young Bucks retain via pinfall

Finish: Nicholas Jackson hits Dax Harwood with a belt shot, Harwood kicks out at 2. EVP Trigger seals the pinfall for Matthew Jackson.

Grade: 3.5 stars

Chris Jericho (c) vs. HOOK for the FTW championship

While Chris Jericho can still build meaningful feuds and programs, his in-ring work has suffered, since Father Time remains undefeated.

Jericho’s current ‘Learning Tree’ gimmick has been incredibly divisive, and his feud with HOOK has felt very derivative of Jericho feuds over the last two or three years.

Building this match with Bryan Keith and Big Bill was a smart decision, considering it hid a bit of Jericho’s in-ring shortcomings. Putting the ceremonial strap back on HOOK was also the smart decision, because Jericho didn’t do much to elevate it in the time he’s had it.

Winner: HOOK via submission

Finish: Hook locks in the REDRUM on Jericho; Taz intervenes and stops Bryan Keith from interfering and locks in a Kata ha jime of his own

Grade: 3.75 stars

Toni Storm (c) vs. Mariah May for the AEW women’s championship

There have been some questions surrounding Mariah May’s ability to get over while not being involved with Toni Storm. Those theories are going to be put to the test now.

Mariah May gets a shot to run with the top women’s belt in the company with her win over former mentor Storm. What has never been a question is May’s in-ring work: Again, while some say her opponents have had better showings than she has in her matches, it takes two to tango.

This was an excellent match that maybe should have gotten a few more minutes, but Storm’s inability and unwillingness to pull the trigger on using the shoe to get her revenge cost her the match and her title. This was an excellent match in, what should be, a mile marker in their feud.

Winner: Mariah May via pinfall

Finish: May hits a pair of running knees and the Storm Zero for the 3 count.

Grade: 4.25 stars

The Patriarchy (c) vs. Bang Bang Gang vs. House of Black vs. Pac and Blackpool Combat Club in a ladder match for the AEW trios championship

What do you get when you add 12 men, trios championships and a metric crap-ton of ladders? Pure fun.

The opening bout to the main card of All In was pure, chaotic fun. There are so many things that can potentially go wrong in a ladder match, but that’s almost never the case when Christian Cage is involved. Fostering a reputation for being one of the smartest minds when it comes to laying out ladder matches, Cage seldom has a bad showing in these matches, and that was evident again in this match.

With Pac securing the win for the Blackpool Combat Club, his post-Death Triangle roadmap is clear, and he should be a seamless fit in the group. Pac also finally secured his long-needed elusive big-time victory after being handed crushing losses after the last year, making for a feel-good story in his home country.

Winners: Blackpool Combat Club

Finish: Pac climbs the ladder to secure the win for the BCC; Luchasaurus fails to stop Pac from climbing.

Grade: 4.25 stars

Jamie Hayter returns at All In 2024

Some things are worth the wait.

Jamie Hayter has been out of action for over a year as she nursed injuries. What better spot, what better stage for the UK native to come back at than Wembley Stadium? Even more so: Getting to punch fellow countrymate Saraya a few times in the face was probably pretty sweet, too.

Dustin Rhodes, Sammy Guevara, Katsuyori Shibata and the Von Erichs vs. The Kingdom and Cage of Agony

This match was more of a reminder that ROH exists and is a thing than it was anything else.

The Von Erichs and Rhodes are the ROH six man champs, while Rhodes and Guevara recently won the ROH tag titles from the Kingdom. Cage of Agony are former ROH six-man champs, while Shibata is a former ROH Pure champion.

So, logically, there was a reason to have this match, with a story built in already. That said, it wasn’t anything special, and at times it was disjointed and more of a car wreck than the earlier 16-man tag match.

Post-match, Kevin Von Erich locked in the Iron Claw on Matt Taven, which brought the crowd to its feet.

Winners: Dustin Rhodes, Sammy Guevara, Katsuyori Shibata and the Von Erichs

Finish: Sammy Guevara hits Taven with a Senton Bomb, Taven is pinned by Rhodes.

Grade: 2.5 stars

Willow Nightingale and Tomohiro Ishii vs. Kris Statlander and Stokely Hathaway

For a partnership and feud that has gone on for months now, crowds haven’t seemed entirely invested in the Nightingale vs. Statlander feud. Most of the match was the two friends-turned-rivals going 50-50, which the crowd wasn’t overly into.

The highlight of the bout came when Hathaway got some unexpected offense in on the ‘Stone Pitbull,’ including a 10-punch and a drop toe hold.

It was all for naught, however, as the team of Nightingale and Ishii picked up the win.

Winners: Nightingale and Ishii win via pinfall

Finish: Ishii hits a sliding forearm on Hathaway

Grade: 2.75 stars

Private Party, Dark Order, Anthony Ogogo, Satnam Singh, Ariya Daivari and Jay Lethal vs. Top Flight, Lio Rush, Action Andretti, Tommy Billington, Kyle Fletcher and Kip Sabian

For what seems like a bloated concept – can we try and keep tag matches to like, eight-man tags, please? – this was a fun pre-show opener.

Hometown heroes Kip Sabian, Anthony Ogogo and Tommy Billington got some shine in the match, and the crowd sopped it up early.

The match didn’t take long to turn into a finish spot fest, but if what you want from an opener is just some light-hearted, low-stakes fun with high spots and plenty of likeable stars on both sides of the ring, then you got what you wanted. It also didn;’t overstay its welcome.

Winners: Top Flight, Lio Rush, Action Andretti, Tommy Billington, Kyle Fletcher and Kip Sabian

Finish: Dante Martin hits a splash on Ariya Daivari for the 3 count.

Grade: 3 stars
