(STINGER: AEW)

AEW closed its All Out pay per view with double debuts!

After Kenny Omega beat Christian Cage to retain the AEW Championship in last night’s main event, Adam Cole made a surprise appearance...and he quickly aligned himself with The Elite.

That was followed by the AEW debut of Bryan Danielson, who helped Christian and Jurassic Express run off Omega and the rest of The Elite.

Backstage after the show, Cole talked about his decision to jump to AEW.

That clip from the media scrum after All Out.

Those were not the only surprises at All Out.

Ruby Soho - the former Ruby Riott - made her AEW debut and won the women’s Casino Battle Royale to earn a shot at the AEW Women’s Championship.

That title is still held by Dr. Britt Baker after she beat Kris Statlander last night.

New Japan’s Minoru Suzuki made a surprise appearance to confront, and lay out, Jon Moxley...after Mox had beaten Satoshi Kojima. Moxley and Suzuki are now set for a match on Wednesday’s Dynamite from Cincinnati.

The lone title change last night...the Lucha Brothers beat the Young Bucks inside a steel cage to take away the AEW Tag Team Titles.

Miro beat Eddie Kingston to retain the TNT Championship.

CM Punk’s first pro wrestling match in over seven years was a win over Darby Allin. He pinned him with the GTS and the two shook hands after the match.

For a few moments, it appeared MJF had pinned Chris Jericho to end his in-ring career in AEW. It took a second referee to point out that Jericho’s foot was on the bottom rope. The match was restarted and Jericho later forced MJF to tap out to the Walls Of Jericho.

And Paul Wight pinned QT Marshall with a choke slam.

On the Buy In pre-show, Jurassic Express & the Best Friends beat the Hardy Family Office. After the match, The Butcher returned to AEW TV after a long layoff to beat up on Orange Cassidy.

AEW also announced a new date for the Full Gear pay per view. It’s now set for Saturday, November 13th.
