All Elite Wrestling
AEW (All Elite Wrestling) is a United States professional wrestling promotion built around two weekly shows and a full pay-per-view calendar. Its flagship Dynamite airs on TBS and Collision airs on TNT, with both simulcast on HBO Max. The company grew out of the Bullet Club scene: Jon Moxley, Chris Jericho and Mercedes Mone are among the names who have anchored its roster.
How AEW came together
AEW's founders came directly out of the Bullet Club, the faction that started in New Japan Pro-Wrestling in 2013. Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks, Matt and Nick Jackson, were core members of that group before they helped launch All Elite Wrestling and brought its "Elite" offshoot with them. That lineage ties AEW to New Japan Pro-Wrestling and to the wider Bullet Club story.
The promotion's identity rests on its two national television shows and a compact, repeated set of major pay-per-views: Revolution, Double or Nothing, All In, All Out and Full Gear. Those cards headline the calendar and now stream live on HBO Max.

Several figures central to AEW do not yet have a Wrestle Lore profile, so they appear here as plain text. Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks, Matt and Nick Jackson, came out of the Bullet Club and helped found the company. Other names associated with New Japan who moved to AEW include Kazuchika Okada, Jay White and Will Ospreay. MJF is another headline name commonly tied to the promotion. As profiles for these performers go live, this page will link to them.

Where to watch AEW
Dynamite airs on TBS on Wednesdays 8-10 ET, and Collision airs on TNT on Saturdays 8-10 ET. Both shows are on HBO Max as a simulcast plus replays. Every AEW pay-per-view streams live on HBO Max, beginning with All Out on September 20, 2025. Outside the United States, AEW streams through AEW Plus on TrillerTV.
The Bullet Club connection
Bullet Club was founded in New Japan Pro-Wrestling in 2013 by Finn Balor, then wrestling as Prince Devitt. AJ Styles succeeded him as the faction's second leader, and Kenny Omega later took over. Omega and the Young Bucks carried that group's "Too Sweet" sign and its Elite branding into AEW when they helped launch the promotion, which is why the Bullet Club story runs straight through AEW's origins. Cody Rhodes was a Bullet Club member from 2016 to 2018 before the group's alumni scattered across the industry.
