AEW All In 2024 Recap: New Champions, Sting, Ricochet, Nigel McGuinness, Bryan Danielson’s Career, More

We are done with All In 2024, which saw new AEW champions crowned, returns like Sting and Daniel Garcia, Ricochet debuted and more.

The pre-show took place, but the three matches felt like fillers as there were about 30 people involved. Talk about overkill. For the main card opener, Pac with Blackpool Combat Club’s Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta won the World Trios Championship. It marks Pac’s run with the titles. We got a feeling Christian Cage will blame Killswitch as the The Patriarchy spirals.

Next, “The Glamour” Mariah May ended “Timeless” Toni Storm’s lengthy Women’s Championship run. The bloody affair even saw May slap her own mom. Then, Hook is one again the FTW Champion thanks to his dad, Taz. Clearly, the crowd was not happy with Chris Jericho as many used this as the bathroom break.

The Young Bucks were able to successfully defend their tag titles this year. The Casino Gauntlet Match saw Cage win in a shocker. In that same bout, Ricochet debuted and Nigel McGuinness was an entrant. It marks McGuinness’ first match in over a decade. Christian winning was puzzling, but it should add another layer to his ongoing problems.

Will Ospreay topped MJF to bring the International Championship back. Mercedes Moné is still wearing gold after defeating Dr. Britt Baker. The Coffin Match saw Jack Perry retain the TNT Championship. A post-match beating was stopped by Sting. In the main event, Bryan Danielson got the victory over Swerve Strickland via submission. Therefore, he is AEW World Champion and his career will go on for a little bit longer. The evening closed with Danielson celebrating with his family. So, what did you think of AEW All In 2024?
