Bryan Danielson went all out at All In, and he left with the title.

Dubbed “The American Dragon,” Danielson’s illustrious career seems to be nearing its closure, especially after he risked it all against Swerve Strickland in their Sunday match. Danielson aimed to earn his inaugural AEW championship win, with the stakes at an all-time high as he faced the AEW champion in the iconic Wembley Stadium.

In front of his wife, Brie Danielson, and their children, a bloodied Danielson forced Strickland to submit, securing the company’s top title and leaving the crowd of over 50,000 ecstatic.

His triumph solidifies his status as one of the finest wrestlers currently, and perhaps as one of the greatest in history.

Other championship matches occurred on the card: Dr. Britt Baker challenged Mercedes Moné for the TBS title, and Toni Storm lost the AEW women’s championship to her former protégé, Mariah May.

Will Ospreay also defended his home turf against MJF in the International – previously known as the American – championship bout.

All In 2024 proved to be a landmark event for AEW, highlighted by surprise returns, remarkable victories, and a lot of energy (and Juice too). YSL News Sports provided live updates, match ratings, and more from All In 2024 below:

Swerve Strickland (c) vs. Bryan Danielson

In short: Flawless.

Bryan Danielson meant every word when he declared on the August 22 “Dynamite” that he is the best wrestler globally. Although discussions can arise around this title (Will Ospreay is in the mix), Danielson undoubtedly is up for consideration, not only as the best now but as one of the all-time greats.

There are numerous reasons for this: Danielson combines supreme technical wrestling talent with an uncanny ability to tell stories in the ring while adapting to different styles, elevating him above the competition.

While some fans wished to see “Hangman” Adam Page in this position, it’s well-known that Danielson captivates the audience quickly, and by the end of the match, viewers engaged with the ongoing Swerve/Hangman storyline while witnessing Danielson’s win, which helped legitimize both the AEW championship and Strickland’s reign.

Swerve was an ideal champion, especially after many felt the MJF reign lasted too long, and Samoa Joe’s reign appeared more of a transitional phase. With immense charisma and a growing skill set (aiding from guidance by Will Ospreay), Strickland established himself as a permanent main event staple in AEW, destined to be part of their future plans.

Winner: Bryan Danielson

Finish: A distracted Swerve falls victim to Danielson’s Busaiku knee and ultimately taps out.

Grade: 5 stars

Ricochet Debuts in AEW at All In

After a lackluster run with WWE, acclaimed high-flyer Ricochet made his AEW debut during the Casino Gauntlet match at All In.

Ricochet’s rise to fame coincided with Will Ospreay’s during the 2010s, thanks to their series of bouts on the independent circuit. Following stints at Lucha Underground and NXT, he signed with AEW after his WWE contract concluded in 2024.

Jack Perry (c) vs. Darby Allin

Both Darby Allin and Jack Perry are recognized as two of AEW’s most fearless wrestlers. Although their match was rather standard by their usual standards, it also lacked excitement.

Perry’s clear win over Allin was unexpected: He tied Allin and closed the casket lid for the victory. There were a few high-risk moves, but they were generally aligned with expectations from the duo.

This likely won’t wrap up their rivalry, and it merits watching how Sting, if at all, plays into future developments.

Winner: Jack Perry

Finish: Perry zipped Allin in a body bag and placed it inside the coffin for the victory.

Grade: 3.25 stars

Mercedes Mone (c) vs. Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D.

Whether it’s ring rust or a concerning pattern in her career, Britt Baker seems to have regressed in her in-ring performance. Although her match with Mone was not awful, it did come across as disjointed, which was quite evident throughout.

They charmed the audience with decent moves, yet it wasn’t sufficient to overshadow the match’s issues, which likely shouldn’t have been as sloppy as it ended up being.

Winner: Mercedes Mone

Finish: Mone  finally made her comeback during All In 2024, much to the delight of the audience.

Grade: 3 stars

MJF (c) vs. Will Ospreay

The long-running debate over whether Will Ospreay would utilize the Tiger Driver ’91 concluded this past Sunday. He executed the move successfully against MJF, capturing the AEW International Championship (previously the American title).

Ospreay had two potential routes with the risky move: either to take down an established villain or to use it for a key turn in favor of a fan-favorite character. In this occasion, he chose the former on MJF, the top heel of the industry, but it felt somewhat rushed leading up to this point without the use of such a significant move in a main event context.

Daniel Garcia’s triumphant return, complete with a loud cheer from the crowd, could possibly clear up any re-signing speculation, although his future still appears uncertain. His comeback fit nicely into the storyline.

The match delivered the high-caliber action expected from two of AEW’s and the world’s elite performers. While it may not have matched the intensity of their one-hour “Dynamite” encounter, it successfully felt fresh and hit all the right beats in roughly half the time.

Winner: Will Ospreay

Finish: Ospreay executes the Tiger Driver ’91, pinning MJF for the win.

Grade: 4.5 stars

Casino Gauntlet Match

The Casino Gauntlet Match has been a hallmark of AEW since its introduction in April. It’s crucial for AEW to avoid overusing this format, yet excluding the very first one, every iteration has been remarkable, including Sunday’s matchup.

Christian’s surprising entrance and eventual win added to the shock, as did Nigel McGuinness’s return following a considerable health setback. Ricochet’s debut added excitement, along with the progress of Adam Page’s revenge narrative.

Fans speculated about a possible face turn when Luchasaurus – not Killswitch – made his way to the ring, but that did not unfold, paving the way for Cage’s victory.

Winner: Christian Cage via pinfall

Finish: Luchasaurus chokeslams Orange Cassidy, allowing Cage to claim victory.

Grade: 4.5 stars

The Young Bucks (c) vs. FTR vs. The Acclaimed

The AEW tag team division has recently declined from its previous status as one of the hottest in wrestling. While the Young Bucks often seem like the correct choice to revitalize the titles, the tag team belts have been largely overlooked as this three-way rivalry unfolded.

Both The Acclaimed and FTR appeared to be in a slump leading up to this match, with the crowd remaining uninvested until the final moments. Although the match was acceptable, it felt insignificant overall.

Winners: The Young Bucks retain via pinfall

Finish: Nick Jackson delivers a belt shot to Dax Harwood, who kicks out at 2, before Matt Jackson seals the win with the EVP Trigger.

Grade: 3.5 stars

Chris Jericho (c) vs. HOOK for the FTW Championship

While Chris Jericho remains capable of crafting compelling feuds, his performances in the ring have diminished over time, as Father Time is an unbeatable opponent.

Jericho’s current “Learning Tree” persona has drawn mixed reactions, and his feud with HOOK feels akin to previous ones he has had over the last couple of years.

Incorporating Bryan Keith and Big Bill into this match was a savvy choice, effectively masking some of Jericho’s wrestling limitations. Awarding the title back to HOOK was also a smart move, as Jericho hadn’t significantly enhanced the title’s standing during his reign.

Winner: HOOK via submission

Finish: HOOK locks in the REDRUM on Jericho, while Taz steps in to prevent Bryan Keith from interrupting and counters with a Katahajime of his own.

Grade: 3.75 stars

Toni Storm (c) vs. Mariah May for the AEW Women’s Championship

Questions about Mariah May’s ability to succeed without being paired with Toni Storm will soon be answered.

Mariah May earned her opportunity to hold the company’s top women’s title by defeating her former mentor, Storm. While some believe that May’s opponents have outperformed her, it indeed takes two to create a great match.

This encounter was exceptional and likely deserved more time. Storm’s hesitation to leverage the shoe for revenge ultimately led to her losing the match and the championship. This was an outstanding contest in what should be a significant chapter in their rivalry.

Winner: Mariah May via pinfall

Finish: May lands two running knees followed by the Storm Zero for the three-count.

Grade: 4.25 stars

The Patriarchy (c) vs. Bang Bang Gang vs. House of Black vs. Pac and Blackpool Combat Club in a Ladder Match for the AEW Trios Championship

What happens when you combine 12 competitors, trios titles, and an immense number of ladders? Total chaos and enjoyment.

The opening bout of All In delivered pure entertainment. While ladder matches can often go awry, that’s typically not the case when Christian Cage is involved. He has established a reputation as one of the smartest strategists for these matches, and his excellence was once again on display.

With Pac securing the win for the Blackpool Combat Club, his trajectory post-Death Triangle is clear, and he should integrate seamlessly into the group. Pac also achieved a long-desired significant victory in his home country, creating a heartwarming narrative.

Winners: Blackpool Combat Club

Finish: Pac climbs the ladder to snatch the victory for BCC, while Luchasaurus fails to prevent his ascent.

Grade: 4.25 stars

Jamie Hayter Returns at All In 2024

Some moments are definitely worth waiting for.

Jamie Hayter, who had been sidelined, made her long-anticipated return at All In 2024, much to the excitement of the fans.

After over a year of recovery from injuries, the perfect location for her return was none other than Wembley Stadium. To top it off, getting to land a few punches on fellow Brit Saraya must have felt really satisfying, too.

Dustin Rhodes, Sammy Guevara, Katsuyori Shibata, and the Von Erichs vs. The Kingdom and Cage of Agony

This match served more as a reminder of ROH’s existence rather than anything particularly exciting.

The Von Erichs and Rhodes hold the ROH six-man titles, while Rhodes and Guevara recently took the ROH tag titles from the Kingdom. The Cage of Agony were former ROH six-man champions, and Shibata has experience as a former ROH Pure champion.

There was a clear story that justified this matchup, but ultimately, it lacked any memorable moments and often felt disorganized, making it more chaotic than the earlier 16-man tag match.

After the match, Kevin Von Erich locked Matt Taven in the Iron Claw, which energized the crowd.

Winners: Dustin Rhodes, Sammy Guevara, Katsuyori Shibata, and the Von Erichs

Finish: Sammy Guevara executed a Senton Bomb on Taven, leading to his pinfall by Rhodes.

Grade: 2.5 stars

Willow Nightingale and Tomohiro Ishii vs. Kris Statlander and Stokely Hathaway

Despite a long-running rivalry between Nightingale and Statlander, the audience seemed less engaged with their feud. Most of the match felt like a back-and-forth exchange, which didn’t capture the crowd’s interest.

A standout moment came when Hathaway surprisingly took the offensive against the “Stone Pitbull” with a 10-punch combo and a drop toe hold.

Nonetheless, Nightingale and Ishii secured the victory in the end.

Winners: Nightingale and Ishii via pinfall

Finish: Ishii delivered a sliding forearm to Hathaway.

Grade: 2.75 stars

Private Party, Dark Order, Anthony Ogogo, Satnam Singh, Ariya Daivari, and Jay Lethal vs. Top Flight, Lio Rush, Action Andretti, Tommy Billington, Kyle Fletcher, and Kip Sabian

While the match felt a bit overcrowded—could we please limit tag matches to eight participants?—it functioned well as a light-hearted opener.

Local favorites Kip Sabian, Anthony Ogogo, and Tommy Billington received cheers from the crowd right from the start.

The match quickly evolved into a sequence of finish spots, but if you’re looking for an enjoyable opener packed with high-energy moves and beloved faces, this delivered without dragging on too long.

Winners: Top Flight, Lio Rush, Action Andretti, Tommy Billington, Kyle Fletcher, and Kip Sabian

Finish: Dante Martin executed a splash on Ariya Daivari for the win.

Grade: 3 stars
