AEW has announced a new title matchup for this Sunday’s All Out pay-per-view from the United Center in Chicago, Illinois.
Samoa Joe will be defending his ROH Television Championship against Shane Taylor at the event. A video package played on this evening’s Dynamite showing Taylor vowing to win back the title he previously held.
This announcement comes as a surprise to many fans, as AEW and ROH are two separate promotions. However, this collaboration between the two companies is not unprecedented. In the past, we have seen wrestlers from AEW and ROH compete against each other in special crossover events.
Samoa Joe, a former WWE superstar, made his return to professional wrestling earlier this year when he signed with ROH. Since then, he has been on a dominant run as the ROH Television Champion, successfully defending his title against top competitors. However, Shane Taylor is no stranger to championship gold himself. He previously held the ROH Television Championship and is determined to reclaim it at All Out.
While the match between Samoa Joe and Shane Taylor may not have been originally planned for All Out, it adds an exciting element to the already stacked card. The ROH Television Championship has a rich history, and this match will undoubtedly showcase the talent and athleticism of both competitors.
In addition to the Samoa Joe vs. Shane Taylor matchup, All Out will feature several other highly anticipated bouts. Jon Moxley will defend his AEW International Championship against either Orange Cassidy or Penta El Zero Miedo. The AEW TNT Championship will be on the line as Luchasaurus takes on Darby Allin. And Kris Statlander will defend her AEW TBS Championship against Ruby Soho.
Furthermore, the event will also see a clash between Powerhouse Hobbs and Miro, as well as a showdown between Kenny Omega and Konosuke Takeshita. The Bullet Club Gold, consisting of Jay White, Juice Robinson, and The Gunns, will take on the Young Bucks and FTR in a highly anticipated six-man tag team match.
All Out promises to be a night of thrilling action and intense rivalries. With the addition of the Samoa Joe vs. Shane Taylor matchup, fans are in for a treat. Make sure to tune in to witness this historic crossover event between AEW and ROH.
