AEW All Out 2021 reportedly brought immense success for the company.
Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, AEW All Out 2021 drew 205,000 buys on pay-per-view and grossed $10 million in revenue.
When speaking on Busted Open in September following the event, Tony Khan said about All Out, "It really shows how far we've come. It shows how big the audience for wrestling is right now. Last week was a great week for us too."
"I think we've really been doing some great stuff on Friday nights, too. So a lot of big news in AEW and you know, it's great to be able to tell you guys that our pay-per-view did well over 200,000 buys, which is a big milestone that nobody had hit in this country for a long time. So it's pretty a special week for AEW.”
It took place during Labor Day weekend on September 5, 2021, at the Now Arena in the Chicago suburb of Hoffman Estates, Illinois. It was the first All Out event to be held on a Sunday. It was also AEW's first pay-per-view held outside of Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Florida since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020.
Ten matches were contested at the event, including one on the Buy In pre-show. In the main event, Kenny Omega defeated Christian Cage to retain the AEW World Championship.
