AEW Redemption 2026: History in the Making at the Bell Centre
The wrestling world is descending upon Montreal, Quebec, for a night that promises to redefine legacies. AEW Redemption 2026 is officially here, bringing the high-octane energy of All Elite Wrestling to the iconic Bell Centre. With the road to All In: London reaching a fever pitch, tonight’s event isn’t just about championships—it’s about survival and redemption.
From the rich wrestling heritage of Montreal to the cutting-edge athleticism of the current roster, AEW Redemption is set to be a milestone in sports entertainment. Whether you are tuning in via HBO Max or other streaming platforms, here is everything you need to know about this star-studded extravaganza.
The Main Event: A Clash of Ideologies
AEW World Championship: Kenny Omega (c) vs. Kevin Knight
The spotlight shines brightest on Kenny Omega, who enters his second reign as World Champion. After a tumultuous journey and a “deal with the devil,” Omega now stands alone, severed from the influence of Don Callis. However, the ghost of Callis lingers in his opponent, “The Jet” Kevin Knight.
Knight, now aligned with the Don Callis Family, seeks to become the first-ever dual AEW World and TNT Champion. Can Omega break Callis’s psychological grip on the young star, or will Knight’s ambition propel him to the top of the mountain?
Women’s Gold and Dreams on the Line
AEW Women’s World Championship: Thekla (c) vs. Willow Nightingale
This is redemption in its purest form. After a stunning return and a Casino Gauntlet victory, Willow Nightingale has earned her shot at the gold. For Willow, winning tonight is the only way to ensure a championship walk into Wembley Stadium. Standing in her way is Thekla, the “Toxic Spider,” who has spent months systematically dismantling the dreams of her opponents. It’s a battle of hope versus cynicism in the heart of Quebec.
The Full Match Card: High Stakes and Heavy Hits
Beyond the main events, the card is packed with grudge matches and championship defenses that could shift the landscape of AEW:
- AEW International Championship: Kyle Fletcher (c) vs. Bandido
- Dream Team Tag Clash: Will Ospreay & Jon Moxley vs. The Young Bucks
- AEW World Tag Team Championship: Adam Copeland & Christian Cage (c) vs. PAC & Claudio Castagnoli
- AEW National Championship: Mark Davis (c) vs. Andrade El Ídolo
- TBS Championship: Hikaru Shida (c) vs. Maya World
- No Holds Barred War: “The Painmaker” Jericho vs. “Psycho Killer” Tommaso Ciampa
- 6-Way Ladder Match: For a future International Title shot featuring Jack Perry, Mike Bailey, Komander, Beast Mortos, Nick Wayne, and El Clon.
- Double Chain Match: Bang Bang Gang (Juice Robinson & Jay White) vs. The Dogs (David Finlay & Clark Connors)
Violence is Optional? Not Tonight.
The most anticipated grudge match features the return of “The Painmaker” Chris Jericho. Following a brutal attack involving a power drill by Tommaso Ciampa, this No Holds Barred encounter promises absolute carnage. When two “psychos” collide in a ring with no rules, the only certainty is pain.
