AEW has headed to Sydney, Australia, for an exciting show, Grand Slam Australia, making their debut in the city. The event is set to take place on Saturday, February 14, 2026, at Qudos Bank Arena and promises to be a stellar hit for fans in the Land Down Under.
Top stars like Jon Moxley, Toni Storm, MJF, Hangman Adam Page, and more have been announced for the show. Moreover, the Jacksonville-based wrestling promotion has put together an exciting match card. From a high-stakes main event bout to a heated feud leading up to a title bout, it has already hyped up the fans. So, here are four last-minute predictions for AEW Grand Slam Australia 2026.
#4. Buddy Matthews returns and costs Brody King
Brody King is set to have one of the biggest opportunities in his All Elite Wrestling career. He will challenge the reigning AEW World Champion, MJF, for his title after defeating him in a Title Eliminator to earn that match. Things could go in favour of Brody for the majority of the bout. However, a major twist could see the return of former WWE superstar Buddy Matthews at the same event where he was injured last year. While it would seem that he would help his former House of Black cohort, a shocker could see Matthews instead cost Brody the match and chance to become the new champion.
#3. IInspiration debut in AEW to attack current champions
A recent report hinted that the IInspiration duo, Cassie Lee and Jessica McKay, are no longer a part of the TNA Wrestling roster, and AEW has major interest in signing them. With Grand Slam Australia taking place in their home country, and should a deal have come through by now, Tony Khan could have them debut at the event, which will surely garner a loud pop. Moreover, they could attack the reigning AEW Women’s World Tag Team Champions, Babes of Wrath, right after their match with Megan Bayne and Penelope Ford, to lay their claim for a match for the titles on their very first night.
#2. Jon Moxley loses his Continental title
Jon Moxley has been involved in a heated feud with Konosuke Takeshita over the last few weeks. Moreover, their factions, The Death Riders and The Don Callis Family, have been crossing paths, and the duo is set to collide for Moxley’s Continental title at Grand Slam Australia 2026. While Moxley’s reign has begun to pick up, an interesting booking could see him drop the title to The Alpha to give him a major push as a singles star.
#1. Andrade defeats Hangman Page
Andrade El Idolo and Hangman Adam Page earned their way to the No.1 contender’s match set for Grand Slam Australia 2026. The winner would earn a shot at the AEW World Championship next. The highly anticipated match could see Andrade score the win over The Hangman, adding another major victory to his resume after beating a top star like Kenny Omega on Dynamite a few weeks ago, and continuing to build momentum as the next major top star in All Elite Wrestling.
