AEW reveals Owen Hart Foundation Tournament brackets

AEW has revealed the brackets for the 2025 Men’s and Women’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournaments.

The eight-person tournaments will commence in the coming weeks, with the finals for both set for the Double or Nothing pay-per-view in Glendale, Arizona on Sunday, May 25. The winners of the tournaments will receive a championship belt to commemorate their wins, plus a shot at the championship of their choice, typically a World title shot.

All eight competitors were named in the women’s bracket, while a wild card spot indicating a mystery debut is included in the men’s bracket.

Kevin Knight was named as a replacement for Jay White who had previously declared for the tournament, but was taken out by The Death Riders in an angle on Wednesday’s Dynamite.
