The 2025 edition of the PPV features high-stakes matches.
The third annual edition of AEW WrestleDream is set to take place on Saturday, October 18, 2025, at the Chaifetz Arena in St. Louis, Missouri. The PPV will be the third final PPV of 2025,/ with Full Gear and Worlds End set to close the year for AEW.
This marks AEW’s second pay-per-view at the venue, following Dynasty in April 2024, and the first time WrestleDream will be held outside the state of Washington. The yearly event serves as a tribute to New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) founder Antonio Inoki, who died in October 2022.
The show will feature multiple matches, which the promotion will gradually reveal as the pay-per-view approaches. Stars and storylines from AEW’s two weekly programs, Dynamite and Collision, will play a central role in building anticipation and shaping the event’s card.
Since his return, Darby Allin has kicked off a feud with former AEW World Champion Jon Moxley and his stable, Death Riders. The two clashed at last month’s AEW All Out in a Coffin match where Moxley emerged victorious.
Moxley and Allin will write another chapter in their feud, as the two are now set to battle once again, this time in a ‘I Quit’ match at the 2025 edition of WrestleDream.
AEW World Champion “Hangman” Adam Page, in his fifth title defense, is set to battle Samoa Joe, while on the other hand, Kris Statlander is set to defend the AEW Women’s World title in a rematch against the former Champion “Timeless” Toni Storm. This will be their first one-on-one match.
Furthermore, a $500K Tag team match between Jurassic Express (Jack Perry & Luchasaurus) and The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson & Nick Jackson) has been announced for the show. On the other hand, AEW TNT Champion Kyle Fletcher will defend the title against Mark Briscoe.
On the other hand, AEW World Tag Team Champions Brodido (Bandido and Brody King) will take on Don Callis Family (Kazuchika Okada and Konosuke Takeshita), with the tag titles on the line.
Additionally, The Hurt Syndicate (Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin & MVP) are also set to battle The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona) in a trios match, while Jamie Hayter and Thekla will clash in a singles match.
