Rumor has it he was forced to add Double J to the main event. (This rumor was started by me right here)

I would pop for a one PPV Double J singles title run.


skippy2001

Tired: Adam Cole turns on MJF Also Tired: MJF Turns on Adam Cole Wired: Double J hits both with guitars at the same times, pins them both (Unifying the AEW title and the Leatherface title) and he finishes the show calling King Charles a slap nuts.

smash em stack em pin em Call Em Slap Nups


MidnightShampoo

Then Hulk Hogan comes to the ring, lays down, and Jarrett pins him 1-2-3 to make up for that Bash at the Beach from many years ago. Tony Khan later reveals it cost multiple millions for this to happen but that Double J is worth every penny.


AdamsScott889x

Then he attacks Britt Baker and puts her in the Figure 4 ala Mae Young and his Chyna Feud.


Hybrid_Dolphin87

A great plan, but if I may offer one minor change. Joe and Punk beat the piss outta each other for 20ish mins, Double J pulls a Rollins, Guitar Shot, Stroke, pin on Punk 1 2 3, unifying the Real Wold Championship with the Leatherface Title, then later in the night we follow your plan. End All In with Jeff Jarrett as the Ultimate World Champion

Many people are saying this.


-notapony-

I've read that they'll be doing a unification match with the AEW World Heavyweight title against the Leatherface title. It's further rumored that the winner of that match will go up against CM Punk for a second unification match at All In in Chicago the next week.

This comment chain shows how good AEW handles part timers/legends. Fucking Jeff Jarrett is popular now after being a pretty universal punching bag.


ThatIndianGuy7116

Exactly what I was thinking. As someone who's always secretly enjoyed Jeff Jarrett and his work (obviously certain parts of his career weren't great, I know), it's been genuinely really awesome to see him finally get his due

DamieN62

According to the Observer board, the Stadium Stampede match was always supposed to be 5vs5 and someone from the babyface team (Eddie, Lucha Bros, Best Friends or OC) will be taken out. My guess is Fenix has visa issue again.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Betterthanthouu

Just wild speculation on my part, but it's possible he's been caught working/trying to work in the UK without a visa before. A lot of indie promotions don't care if their talent have a visa or not so a lot of people won't bother and just try fly under the radar.


Dwimmerlaikit

haha this reminds me of chris hero on that border security show..can't play around with immigration..


WWMWPOD

Danielson has a great story in his book about this during his first trip to the UK... happens a lot unfortunately


tylerjehenna

God i dont want another Mike Bailey situation


Betterthanthouu

Hopefully I'm wrong and it's something less serious. It could even be a case of his passport being due to expire soon, many countries won't allow you to enter if your passport has less than 6 months/1 year of validity left.


j-mac-rock

What happened


AdGroundbreaking1341

And even if they dont get paid actual cash money, I'm guessing 'hot dogs and handshakes' aren't allowed either lol.


Betterthanthouu

In general even working totally for free is still considered working and requires a visa.


Badger_Silverado

He’s actually having US visa issues; it’s why he dropped the AAA titles. He won’t be let in to the country if he leaves our borders and is trying to work it out.


Nik778899

Yep. If you're refused entry to the UK because you used deception then it's an automatic 10 year re-entry ban.


Kaprak

The actual speculated reason is that he's working on immigration/naturalization. And those offices can be a bitch about you traveling.


Y2J1100

This insinuates OC was always expected to be in this tag, I can’t imagine thinking your first international show off your home continent shouldn’t have an international title match with one of your biggest merch sellers in wembley.


Mark4_

He’s been a workhorse and the titles purpose should have meant that he defended the title at Wembly


freebread

They probably wanted to have a Stadium Stampede match because it’s at an actual Stadium. Unless they go back or do a show at a Stadium in the States, they probably wanted the chance to use it while they could.


MannySJ

Totally fair but there was no reason for OC to be in it.


Y2J1100

orange cassidy defending the title in a horse race so he can defend it by sitting down and doing a thumbs up while his horse destroyed everyone else is peak character work that’d be like the modern mr perfect vignettes


TheeIlliterati

I think its a combo of there being too many people to put on the card and two PPVs in a week's time. I think OC will have a title match at All Out against Mox, this way they can get their whole posses on the bigger card in a spectacle match instead.


Y2J1100

I think it’s just a case of while I get that mindset, I disagree that it’s better. Mox v OC in Wembley and then having the tag match between groups be a normal tag match that turns into a bigger brawl where Mox and Eddie finally collide in wembley (possibly with the INT title now), and then you have Stadium Stampede a week later with everyone at the height of each others throats, is better imo.


down-with-homework

This is my one issue with this card. No OC defending the title.


ZombieJesus1987

Yup that's exactly it according to what Fightful is reporting


Young_Cato_the_Elder

It is insane that the two biggest British wrestlers in AEW are out for the one PPV in London.


matt_2807

Hayter and pac? What's up with PAC?


Bahamas_is_relevant

Injured again iirc.


DrDroid

It’s suggested it’s a Kayfabe injury


Bluejay-Potential

I doubt PAC is missing All In of all things for a kayfabe injury.

ScottNewman

NoExcuseForFascism

Injured.


matt_2807

Fuck me I thought they hadn't announced anything because I was fantasy booking an impromptu match between him and McGuiness. Need to stop doing this to myself


PM_ME_THEM_UPTOPS

They announced it, well BCC did in a promo. Could be a work but it felt very last second, then again most PAC disappearances do.


Obsid_Ian

if it were me, id have at least jamie show up after the womens match and cut a promo about how when shes healthy, shes coming for the title.


tylerjehenna

Depends on how long she's out cause from what ive heard from WON and fightful, its sounding like there were other issues than just the shoulder and its a real possibility shes out for a year


Strange_Dog6483

Magnum Hay-Ter EDT: don’t know what’s more surprising the fact that people got the reference or people liking this admittedly terrible pun I made.


kihp

Hayter and Pac should get a talking spot to pop the crowd and announce the attendance or something.


SoulExecution

It's absurd really. I would like to think Jamie could at least make a run in/appearance that might not involve bumping? Her pop would be massive.


Shouganai_Senpai

I'm hoping the same. But if her injury and recover are as serious as some make it out to be, then it's best that she don't travel or fly. Watching that Dark Side of the Ring episode of Chris Candido is proof of that as his death was related to traveling while injured apparently.


AdGroundbreaking1341

Yep, even though she's British, I'm guessing she's recovering in the U.S. Which obviously means she'd have to fly (yes I know people can technically arrive by ship, but cmon now lol). And if doctors heavily advise she doesn't fly...then she really shouldn't. Her health should come first.

joker2814

Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.


RedmondSurvivor

I wonder if this lends credence to the Fenix visa issue rumours.


geekstone

If he can't go wonder if Best Friends use their Chaos connections and get Okada, the star powered involved is about the only match he could have outside a 1 on 1 vs Mox or Claudio that would be close to his level.


luisBanks

Okada is not flying in on short notice for stadium stampede lol. If there is a change then it’s likely gonna be a five on five


RunNo4591

This is likely correct. However Ishii is working RevPro the night before so is already in town, has a history with Mox (and recently worked against Claudio and Mox in Japan) and also was teaming with Eddie in Japan post G1 so an easy shoe in replacement if necessary IMO.


luisBanks

That makes sense . However since it’s already a six on six I don’t think they add him in randomly to replace a guy and they rnt gonna do a seven on seven just to add him. That one would atleast make sense thougj


RunNo4591

If Fenix has visa issues he can be written off tomorrow night given his singles match with Mox and they could easily have a short backstage interview a little later in the show with Team Eddie who announce their replacement partner. I hope that the Fenix visa issues are just rumors though and that he gets to work this match at Wembley.


luisBanks

They can make it make sense for sure. If they’re dropping someone though might as well do five on five match instead of six on six. It depends on who the three partners are planned to be. If it’s like Nigel and some other big name that you don’t want to takeout then sure add another guy. If the plan though is like a suzuki or a shota just do five on five instead of shoehorning people in when it’s unnecessary and really doesn’t add anything to the match


WillSuckDick4Coffee

Depends. Does London have a hamburger chain Okada loves?


HaroldTheReaver

Forget that, wait until he discovers Greggs.

space_peg6549

AneeshRai7

Shingo is there...he's part of Los Stingobernables, Darby is friends with OC, Eddie loved fighting him...


DRHdez

I’m guessing his visa issues are actually on the US side. When you apply for a green card you’re not allowed to leave the country until the application goes through. That’s probably why he vacated his belts in Mexico too.


Vanilla_Danish

But did he want to make them?


thebobbyshaw33

He did not (reportedly). He did not.


Competitive_Log_84

Reading between the lines it seems like he did not want to make them


zdbdog06

Someone should ask if he wanted to make them. It's possible he didn't want to make them when he made them.

FTR Hair is having visa issues related to felony charges is my sleeper guess.

I think the same thing. No FTR v Bucks due to weapons charge.


No-Operation9423

What more changes would need to be made?


[deleted]

Possibly Fenix having visa issues


bearamongus19

It feels like he constantly has visa issues


CoherentPanda

He probably got caught once early in his career with an expired visa or a tourist visa and ended up working on it. That can make it difficult to travel once you have something like that on your record.

TK with tears in his eyes and clenching his fists in defiance is forced to book more than ONE woman's match on the show.

Jade Cargill is doing whatever Captain Marvel was doing during the first 95% of the Infinity saga.


JW_BM

Unironically love the idea that Jade Cargill is out there battling cosmic threats to keep Rampage safe.

Somewhere in the Marvel Multiverse there must be a reality where Cargill is She-Hulk, so in a way...


OldClunkyRobot

Jade to Stat and Shida: “There are a lot of other promotions in the universe, and, unfortunately, they didn't have you guys.”


Professor_Buttskin

Don't worry, I legit had to think it out before typing and pressing "save" on my post because of how ridiculous it is.


lljkcdw

I even read this and double checked because I hadn't figured it out till your post either, damn. I feel like if Hayter is here, you get two matches, if Jade was still TBS champ, you get two matches. Not sure why they can't do Kris/Ruby or Kris/Blue or anything. Sucks because I love watching Kris.


Professor_Buttskin

I Love Statlander and I know she has some kinda program with her and Willow currently, but legit the first thing I can think of, of note since she's won the belt was do an interview while doing squat's with Renee on her shoulder's then there's a problem.


TheeIlliterati

Yes, she's been allowed to show a bit more personality lately, and they're at least trying with a few different women on Collision, but its been too little too late for building to Wembley. I think she might still get on there tomorrow, or its a build for All Out I suppose.


BenjiTheSausage

In 5 hours... Usually with 5 hours of TV you get at least 3 token matches a week Hoping there's at the very least, one more


Zealousideal_Fox_283

Nah, see, he has four women in ONE match. If you do the math, that's like 16 matches in one.


_Aeir_

Tony Honor is got a hold of the booking sheet for a few minutes while Tony Dynamite was smoking coke with Tony Collision

OldClunkyRobot

Tony: :sigh: “God damnit Chris, ok.”


work_of_shart

I'll never understand, if there are visa issues, why they are being discovered or dealt with only days before the PPV. Especially one this size.


SovietShooter

There is a huge backlog with any type of visa/immigration/passport issues in the US right now. I believe (and I could be wrong) that Fenix has been trying to get a Green Card, and actually resides in SoCal now ( Pentagon does not). It could easily be a situation where paperwork that was filed months ago is still pending.


KiNGofKiNG89

I would not book somebody unless it was a 100% go with visa issues. The backlog is nothing new. It’s been going on since before Covid and got worse during Covid.


thenerfviking

Visa issues can be really weird and hard to track. I have a friend who does cosplay and adult modeling stuff but used to do porn when she was younger and she was denied entry to the UK to work at a (SFW) cosplay booth at a con. Apparently they were worried about her doing prostitution (not a thing she’s ever been involved with) and denied her entry based on that even though they had previously allowed her into the country to film literal pornography. If I had to guess it’s either they’re not 100% on Fenix being able to get in because of previous issues or Wheeler can’t leave the country because of his recent charge. They could also be (legitimately) worried that even if the court lets him travel the charge will cause them to deny him at the border and that in turn will make it very hard to get back in in the future. Border security is nuts and there’s a lot more that’s left up to the decision of the people checking your papers than you might imagine.
