Tag team grudge match official for AEW All Out

AEW All Out 2025

The first match is official for next month’s AEW All Out as Adam Copeland & Christian Cage will team up against FTR for the first time ever.

The match was made official during the opening segment of Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite when FTR were demanding that referee Paul Turner reverse his decision from this past Sunday’s Forbidden Door when Brodido won the AEW World Tag Team titles in a three-way that saw FTR take the pin.

As they and Stokely Hathaway were getting physical with Turner, Copeland came out to make the save, followed by Cage through the crowd who snuck up behind FTR in the ring. The four men brawled and after they were separated, Copeland revealed that the two teams would meet in Toronto at the pay-per-view (seen below).

Canadian natives Copeland and Cage reunited at Forbidden Door for the first time since 2011, picking up a win over Killswitch and Kip Sabian. FTR initially put Copeland out of action earlier this year and his surprise return at July’s All In set his eventual reunion with Cage into motion.
