AEW's All Out pay-per-view event in Chicago will feature a highly anticipated Lights Out Steel Cage Match between Hangman Page and Swerve Strickland. Ahead of All Out, AEW Dynamite showcased several key matches, including Robyn Renegade's debut against Jamie Hayter, who has returned to action following an injury hiatus. Kazuchika Okada defended his AEW Continental Championship against Kyle Fletcher, despite criticism from WWE Hall of Famer Bully Ray regarding the match's logic. Additionally, Mariah May is set to defend her AEW Women's World Championship against Nyla Rose, who is on a winning streak. The final Dynamite before All Out also saw Claudio Castagnoli, PAC, and Wheeler Yuta team up against Will Ospreay, Orange Cassidy, and Kyle O'Reilly.
