One of the greatest rivalries in modern wrestling will be revisited at AEW All In: Texas with a huge prize at stake.
As announced by Tony Khan on social media, International Champion Kenny Omega will take on Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada on July 12th in what will be a winner-takes-all match. It should be noted that there has been no announcement of a title unification at the time of writing.
During the June 4th Fyter Fest special, Omega successfully defended the International Championship in a 4-way match. After the bell, Okada interrupted the celebrations and the two men brawled. Okada escaped the one winged angel to close out the first half of the 4-hour special.
Arguably the biggest rivalry in New Japan history and regarded by some fans as having the greatest wrestling matches of all time, Omega and Okada have fought each other 4 times in the past with their record at 2-2. Their most recent match at Dominion 2018 is the highest-rated match in the history of Dave Meltzer’s star ratings, earning 7 stars.
The Updated Line-Up For AEW All In Is As Follows:
- Jon Moxley (c) vs. Adam Page – Singles match for the World Championship
- Toni Storm (c) vs. Mercedes Mone – Single match for the Women’s Championship
- International Champion Kenny Omega vs. Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada – Winner takes all
