AEW Grand Slam Australia 2026 Recap:

Yuta head shaved

AEW delivered a major international spectacle with AEW Grand Slam Australia, emanating from Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney on February 14. The night balanced championship stakes, personal grudges, and storyline progression in a way that made the special feel like far more than just another episode of television. From opening bell to main event, Grand Slam had the energy of a pay-per-view, with several matches directly shaping the road to Revolution.

The evening featured a dramatic stalemate for the AEW Continental Championship, as Jon Moxley and Konosuke Takeshita battled to a 20-minute time-limit draw. Moxley retained due to the clock expiring, but Takeshita pushed the champion to his absolute limit in a physical, hard-hitting contest that left the Sydney crowd buzzing. The women’s tag division also had a spotlight moment, with the reigning champions successfully defending their titles before a surprise post-match debut added a new wrinkle to the division moving forward.

High stakes defined the middle of the card. In the heated #1 Contender’s Match, Hangman Adam Page defeated Andrade El Idolo, earning himself a future AEW World Championship opportunity and immediately putting the main event picture on notice. The Hair-vs-Hair Mixed Tornado Tag Match delivered both chaos and consequences, as Orange Cassidy and Toni Storm scored the win, leading to Wheeler Yuta being shaved bald in one of the night’s most talked-about moments. Meanwhile, the TNT Championship Ladder Match saw Kyle Fletcher outlast Mark Briscoe in a brutal “Game 7” showdown, retaining his title in a fitting climax to their rivalry.

In the main event, MJF successfully defended the AEW World Championship against Brody King in a hard-fought battle that mixed power and precision. King brought the fight, but MJF once again proved why he sits at the top of AEW. The show closed with Hangman confronting the champion, firmly setting the stage for their impending collision. By the end of the night, Grand Slam Australia didn’t just deliver memorable moments — it clearly mapped out AEW’s next chapter heading into Revolution.
