AEW set to make its UK debut on August 27th at the Wembley Stadium

The wrestling world is convinced that a former WWE Champion will make his AEW debut following a major announcement by Tony Khan. The star in question is Drew McIntyre.

Tonight on Dynamite, Khan revealed that the All-In pay-per-view would return this year. For the first time, it'll be under the Jacksonville-based promotion's banner.

He also announced that it would be taking place in the United Kingdom on August 27. The show will emanate from London's Wembley Stadium.

“I’m so excited about tonight’s announcement. Five years ago, before AEW was founded, four pioneers, The Young Bucks, Cody Rhodes, and Kenny Omega put out a show called All In. It was the biggest independent wrestling show of all time and it got interest from around the world. Now flash, five years later, AEW is going to make our debut in London, England, Sunday, August 27 for the first-ever AEW All-In,” Tony Khan said. [00:20 - 00:54]

It was recently reported that Drew McIntyre's WWE contract is set to expire soon. Thus wrestling fans believed that the Scottish Warrior was going to Wembley Stadium to make his AEW debut.

People also wanted Tony Khan to purchase the rights to the former WWE Champion's old theme song 'Broken Dreams.'

Some folks wanted to see the Scottish Warrior turn heel and maybe join the Blackpool Combat Club.

Tony Khan signed Jay White amidst rumors of him potentially going to WWE

Earlier tonight on AEW Dynamite, Jay White showed up to help his Bullet Club mate Juice Robinson during his brawl against Ricky Starks.

Following his appearance, Tony Khan took to Twitter to announce that the former IWGP World Heavyweight Champion had officially signed with the Jacksonville-based promotion.

"Switchblade @JayWhiteNZ is ALL ELITE! Tune in now to Wednesday Night #AEWDynamite LIVE on @TBSNetwork!" Tony Khan tweeted.

The Switchblade has finally put a rest to rumors that he was signing with WWE.
