The AEW All Out 2026 card just got bigger as Andrade El Idolo will defend his AEW National Championship against a man he has a long history with.
during September 19 “AEW Collision” series. Andrade successfully defended his title against Death Riders’ Daniel Garcia. Despite a close finish where Garcia thought he had won, Andrade ran away with the title, but was then attacked by the rest of Garcia’s group. While everyone beat the AEW National Champion, PAC decided to stand on the loudspeaker and challenge Andrade to a title match at All Out, which was later made official by AEW President Tony Khan.

Andrade and PAC have already feuded in AEW, with the two men having a pair of matches at AEW Rampage back in 2021 that were met with critical acclaim at the time. Each man came away with a victory in each, with Andrade winning the first fight and PAC winning the rematch, but a rubber match between the two never took place. Their first meeting on the September 10, 2021 episode of Rampage was actually supposed to take place at that year’s All Out pay-per-viewwhich also took place at the NOW Arena in Chicago, Illinois. However, the bout had to be pulled from the card and moved due to PAC being unable to travel to the United States due to the UK’s COVID-19 travel restrictions.
The rest of the Death Riders will also make an appearance at All Out 2026, as Daniel Garcia and Wheeler Utah will team up with David Finlay and Clark Connors of The Dogs and take on The Bang Bang Gang in a tailgate brawl, with the match taking place Tailgate Brawl preview. Claudio Castagnoli and Gabe Kidd will not be competing at the event as they will be competing at Kobe’s 2026 NJPW Destruction instead. Tailgate Brawl was the other game added to the pre-show Jack Perry fights Katsuyori Shibatawhere Perry will likely face Samoa Joe if he wins.
