It looks like WWE and AEW might be heading for another direct showdown on the wrestling calendar. According to POST Wrestling, WWE is preparing to run a main roster pay-per-view on Saturday, September 20th — the same date AEW has locked in for its annual All Out event.
While there’s no official word yet on whether WWE will go head-to-head during AEW’s confirmed 8 PM ET start time, the overlap is hard to ignore. WWE’s show is set for Indianapolis, Indiana, with Gainbridge Fieldhouse — a familiar stop for the company — being the frontrunner as the venue.
Meanwhile, All Out will be making a major move of its own this year, running from Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena instead of its usual Chicago home base.
The new WWE pay-per-view will also be part of a busy stretch for the company in Indiana. In the weeks surrounding the show, WWE has RAW booked for Evansville on September 22nd, SmackDown on September 19th in Toledo, Ohio, and even a series of appearances by Triple H at TEDSports in Indianapolis from September 9th–11th.
If the timing lines up, fans could be in for one of the most direct WWE vs. AEW event battles since the two promotions began running at the same time on TV in 2019.
