This match was set up at last week’s Double or Nothing event, when “Hangman” Page won the Casino Battle Royale to earn himself a spot to face off against the winner of Chris Jericho vs. Kenny Omega, which was ultimately won by Jericho. Wrestling legend Bret “Hitman” Hart was on hand at the event to show off the new AEW World Championship, and to promote the upcoming match to decide its first champion.
All Out will take place August 31 at the Sears Centre in Chicago, nearly one year to the day after All In, the precursor to All Elite Wrestling.
