AEW Announces Grand Slam Event in Brisbane, Australia for February 2025

Posted at: August 25, 2024 - 1:00 PM

AEW has announced that its Grand Slam event will be held in Brisbane, Australia on February 15, 2025. The event will take place at Suncorp Stadium, marking a significant international expansion for the wrestling promotion.

This move suggests that AEW may not hold its usual Grand Slam event at Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York next year. The Australian event is scheduled for a Sunday, indicating it will likely be a pay-per-view show rather than part of the weekly AEW Dynamite television program.

Rumors about an Australian show had been circulating, with AEW CEO Tony Khan recently confirming plans were in the works for 2025. The announcement fulfills these expectations and demonstrates AEW’s commitment to global expansion.

Several AEW wrestlers have connections to Australia, including Kyle Fletcher and Buddy Matthews, who are native Australians. Toni Storm, though born in New Zealand, was raised in Australia. These talents may play prominent roles in promoting and participating in the event.

This international event represents a significant step for AEW as it continues to grow its brand and reach wrestling fans worldwide.
