AEW reveals Full Gear 2025 date and location

AEW has revealed where its annual Full Gear pay-per-view event will be held in 2025.

The promotion announced on Monday that the show will take place at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, on Saturday, November 22. The venue also hosted Full Gear in 2022 and 2024.

The announcement comes after WWE ran three consecutive shows in New Jersey this past weekend, including Friday’s SmackDown from the same venue.

AEW president Tony Khan spoke to the New York Post about the announcement.

“Being around wrestling and being a fan of wrestling my whole life, I know it’s very important to keep a great relationship with the fans around New York and New Jersey, and we have such great fans in the area,” Khan said. “Full Gear is one of the best events every year for AEW and the wrestling fans and I’m very excited to bring Full Gear back to the Prudential Center.”

Khan also discussed taking on more of AEW’s creative duties recently, saying he made the change at the end of 2024. He compared the shift to when he assumed a similar role in 2019 after AEW Dynamite had only been on the air for a few months.

“I think I found myself in 2024 doing some of the same things I was doing in 2019, in terms of lots of meetings and lots of good conversations, but probably being almost too open to feedback and ideas and too often I was leading a committee, putting an outline and ideas together instead of, I should just sit down, and that’s what I do now,” Khan said.
