Taking place at Orlando's Addition Financial Arena on Saturday, AEW WrestleDream 2026 sees Will Ospreay put his AEW World Championship on the line against seven men.

For the Aerial Assassin, he's introduced Clockwork Carnage to AEW, a match type that recently debuted for the EVE promotion that Ospreay is involved with. Here, two men will start the match, with a new competitor entering every two minutes. Once all eight have entered the match, we go to a 15-minute sprint where points are awarded for pinfalls and submissions - the person with the most falls walks out as AEW World Champion.

With all qualifying matches now taken place, Will finds himself up against Samoa Joe, Adam Copeland, Konosuke Takeshita, Kazuchika Okada, Ricochet, Darby Allin, and fellow United Empire man, 'Speedball' Mike Bailey.

At the top of the women's division, it's Mercedes Moné defending the AEW Women's Title against former champ Thekla, with Thekla earning that opportunity by defeating Willow Nightingale at All Out last month. Will the Toxic Spider become a two-time AEW Women's Champion, or will the CEO walk out of Orlando with the gold still firmly around her waist?

As of this writing, WrestleDream has a further five title matches announced, including a particular potential show-stealer in Andrade El Idolo defending the AEW National Championship against Tommaso Ciampa.

Elsewhere, the issues between the Death Riders and the Don Callis Family continue to rumble on, with the Callis Family's Mark Davis looking to dethrone Death Riders leader Jon Moxley for the AEW Continental Championship. And speaking of the Callis Family, Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight are gunning for the Young Bucks and the AEW Tag Team Championships.

For AEW TBS Champion Persephone, she finds herself in a multi-person title defence, as she faces Queen Aminata, Hyan, and recent signee Dani Luna in a fatal four-way bout for her title.

Rounding out the WrestleDream card right now, Swerve Strickland and the New Level look to continue their impressive run as they put their AEW Trios Titles on the line against 'Hangman' Adam Page and Brodido, and Jericho goes to battle with Nick Wayne, where the Canadian legend will have to apologise to Wayne should the Prodigy get the win here.

Unfortunately, a previously announced AEW Women's Tag Team Title match has been pulled from the WrestleDream card, with the Brawling Birds duo of Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor originally planned to defend the gold against Kris Statlander and Harley Cameron. After a gruelling Chicago Street Fight against Divine Dominion at All Out last month, Hayter is not cleared to compete, with the hope being that she'll be back in action in a few weeks.

As is ever the case with AEW, there's always the chance that another match or two will be added to the WrestleDream line-up by the time bell time gets here on Saturday, be that for the main card or for the Zero Hour pre-show.
