Tony Khan confirms AEW looking to make Australia debut in 2025
An announcement regarding AEW’s Australia debut could be coming soon.
At the start of his pre-All In media call on Thursday, Khan confirmed that AEW is looking to make its Australia debut in 2025. The promotion is scouting “various locations” in Australia, and Khan teased that more information will be coming soon.
“I just wanted to address some reports regarding AEW potentially running an event in Australia,” he said. “We can confirm that we’re currently looking at various locations in Australia to potentially run an event sometime next year in 2025. We’ll have more information about this in the near future. 2025 is going to be a milestone year. Just as this is a milestone year, I think 2025 [there will be] even more great milestones to come.”
The Sporting News Australia first reported last week that AEW had “well-advanced” plans to make its Australia debut with a stadium show next year. Allianz Stadium in Sydney, Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, and Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane were mentioned as potential locations.
AEW already has one stadium show confirmed for 2025. Next year’s All In will take place from Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas on Saturday, July 12. All In will then return to the United Kingdom in 2026.
