2019 may end up being remembered as one of the most exciting years in wrestling history.
That’s because an unexpected wrestling federation has been birthed by a former member of the WWE roster and a world-renowned tag team. Cody (Rhodes) and Matt & Nick Jackson of The Young Bucks have partnered up with billionaire businessman Shahid Khan and his son Tony Khan to form AEW – All Elite Wrestling.
“The Elite” stable have banded together to present the future of professional wrestling and give fans something entirely new to get invested in. The surprising success of Cody and the Young Bucks’ All In event has led to this – the hype surrounding AEW has now reached a fever pitch. Independent talent and big-name Superstars are now set to be a part of the AEW roster. New names are regularly being announced for AEW, which is why we’re here to gather them all. Check out the list below to see who’ll be competing for AEW and the match card for AEW’s first show, Double or Nothing.
