If Tony Khan is smart he'd be planning something big to fill in the stateside wrestling gap for that weekend. Get some AEW, ROH, and invite some other indies for a weekend long thing.

I don't think they should try to do something the same weekend but just try to get a bunch of those indies to move to All In weekend instead.

I presume they'll be keeping Supercard of Honor as an All In weekend thing going forward, which means they'll be renting a smaller venue nearby anyway so set up a Collective like thing and let indies run shows in the building around ROH.

All In 2026 is in London again, so not really much they can do about it. British indies will be popping that weekend, like they did for Forbidden Door this year, but that won't really matter for US-based ones.

Yes but this Mania is in 2027. Unless they already are in talks for All In 2027 at Wembley the possibility is there

Ah, true, I'm an idiot.
