The 2023 All In, also promoted as All In London at Wembley Stadium or simply All In London, was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by the American promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW). It was the first edition of All In produced by AEW and second overall after the independently-held inaugural All In event in September 2018. The event took place on August 27, 2023, at Wembley Stadium in London, England, coinciding with the UK August Bank Holiday weekend.
The event marked AEW's debut in the UK, their first PPV event held outside of North America, and their first event held in an association football stadium. All In was the first professional wrestling event held at the current Wembley Stadium and first held at the venue in over 30 years, after WWE's SummerSlam in 1992, which was held at the original stadium. First day ticket sales alone broke AEW's live attendance record and ticket revenue and the promotion claimed a total attendance of 81,035:[5][6] this would make All In the most attended wrestling event in the UK and the third-most attended wrestling event ever held. However, local government data logged a turnstile attendance of 72,265.[7][8]
Eleven matches were contested at the event, including two on the Zero Hour pre-show. In the main event, MJF defeated Adam Cole to retain the AEW World Championship. In other prominent matches, Will Ospreay defeated Chris Jericho, Eddie Kingston, Penta El Zero Miedo, Best Friends (Chuck Taylor and Trent Beretta), and Orange Cassidy defeated Blackpool Combat Club (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, and Wheeler Yuta), Mike Santana, and Ortiz in a Stadium Stampede match, and CM Punk defeated Samoa Joe to retain the "Real World Championship". This would be Punk's final match in AEW as he was fired following a legitimate backstage altercation that happened at the event.
