Will Ospreay retained the AEW World Championship against Jon Moxley in the main event of AEW All Out 2026, closing out the pay-per-view with the first successful defense of his title reign.
Ospreay won the belt from Kenny Omega at AEW All In 2026, and the Moxley match marked his first title defense since that victory. According to POST Wrestling, the bout was filled with interference from both sides before Ospreay came out on top. Fightful noted that during Ospreay’s entrance, United Empire stablemates Francesco Akira and “Speedball” Mike Bailey flanked him on the way to the ring.
WrestleZone framed the win as another chapter in the ongoing rivalry between Ospreay and Moxley, tracing their history back to AEW Forbidden Door 2025, when Moxley dropped Ospreay on his head in a moment that sent Ospreay away for neck surgery. Ospreay has since returned to in-ring action, culminating in his championship win over Omega and now a successful defense against the man Wrestlezone identified as central to that earlier storyline.
411Mania described the contest as a “grueling” battle, while Wrestling Inc and eWrestlingNews both confirmed Ospreay remains AEW World Champion following the finish at All Out. The result keeps the title on Ospreay heading out of the pay-per-view, with no future challenger or next title defense announced in the immediate aftermath of the show.
