• Why Top AEW Star Will Miss All Out

Fans hoping to see Kenny Omega at AEW All Out in Canada will be disappointed, as the former AEW World Champion is not scheduled for the PPV. While the absence surprised many, sources indicate this has been part of AEW’s long-term planning.

According to Fightful Select, AEW officials confirmed that Omega had arranged time off months in advance, with the storyline injury angle against TNT Champion Kyle Fletcher serving to explain his absence on television while elevating Fletcher in the process.

Omega is reportedly taking a trip to Japan during this period, making his omission from the All Out card a deliberate move rather than an unexpected change in plans.

In recent months, reports circulated that Omega had been competing while dealing with physical pain. The AEW EVP acknowledged those issues but also noted that working through discomfort has long been a reality of his career. AEW sources downplayed the idea that his break is solely injury-related, emphasizing it was a scheduled rest period rather than a forced one.

Unless plans change, Omega will remain off AEW programming during All Out weekend.

• Update On AJ Styles’ Future After Losing To Dominik Mysterio Again

The feud between Intercontinental Champion Dominik Mysterio and AJ Styles is far from concluded, as backstage sources reveal the storyline is set to continue at the upcoming Worlds Collide event.

Despite Mysterio successfully defending his title on this week’s RAW in Paris, PWInsider reports that the rivalry is being extended into Worlds Collide, scheduled for September 12 in Las Vegas. This means Styles will play an active role in the crossover card with AAA.

The feud, rooted in interference and championship contention, has seen multiple encounters: from their high-stakes match at SummerSlam to continued skirmishes on RAW. Mysterio’s latest title defense included interference from El Grande Americano, reinforcing that neither competitor has definitively overcome the other.

Worlds Collide, a joint promotion with AAA, was confirmed to feature Dominik Mysterio challenging El Hijo del Vikingo for the AAA Mega Championship. With the ongoing tension with Styles, fans can expect the rivalry to bleed into this interpromotional main event – possibly through ringside involvement or another in-ring confrontation.

• WWE Wants To Reward Paris Fans

Following the resounding success of Clash in Paris this past weekend, WWE executives are reportedly exploring a plan to bring one of their flagship “Big Four” Premium Live Events to Paris in 2027.

Paris fans left a lasting impression on WWE brass, delivering a fervor and energy that many insiders described as unforgettable. That reaction has started internal discussions about further tapping into the French market with a high-profile installment of their biggest shows.

Sources from WrestleVotes revealed that influential figures within WWE have begun pushing for a marquee event in Paris. The year 2027 presents an opportunity: with most 2026 venues already booked, WWE could allocate a “name value” PLE to France, signaling a strategic expansion into what some see as an underleveraged but highly enthusiastic market.

Hosting a major event like Money In The Bank or Royal Rumble would not only reward the passionate Paris audience, but also create a splash that resonates across global fans. WWE appears intent on turning the momentum of Clash in Paris into a launching pad for future international growth.
