International incident. Last month, AEW presented it biggest event of all time with All In at Wembley Stadium in London, England. The show was held in front of over 81,000 fans and being on the card could have been a game changer for their career. However, one wrestler did not appear as originally advertised, and now it might be causing him quite the problems behind the scenes.

One of the matches originally announced for All In featured Sting and Darby Allin teaming up against Swerve Strickland and AR Fox. However, Fox was replaced by Christian Cage after Strickland fired Fox from the Mogul Embassy. According to Fightful Select, there is backstage heat on Fox, as AEW did not feel he was clear about being unable to travel internationally. There is no word on why Fox was unable to appear on the show, though he has not wrestled outside of the United States since 2016.
Fox is a star when he is around. Check out some of what he has done in AEW:
Opinion: Assuming Fox is at fault here, it’s no surprise that Fox would have heat on him for making AEW change things up at the last minute for their biggest show ever. At the very least, it makes AEW look bad for not knowing this in advance, as there was little reason to believe Fox could not appear at the show. Hopefully this gets cleared up, as Fox is a talented star and having him around is a good thing.
