With AEW having recently pushed the upcoming Full Gear PPV back by a week, Tony Khan's promotion has now announced where this 13 November show will emanate from.

Taking to Twitter, AEW has revealed that the Target Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota will host this year's Full Gear. With prices starting at $29 (plus fees), tickets for the PPV will go on sale at aewtix.com this Friday at 11am ET.

In addition to Full Gear, the Target Center will also house AEW Rampage a day prior to the PPV. Tickets for that episode of Rampage are already on sale.

Previously, AEW Full Gear 2021 was to take place on Saturday 6 November from the Chaifetz Arena in St. Louis, Missouri.

In a sensible move, the decision was made to move Full Gear to Saturday 13 November so that it wouldn't clash with the UFC 268 and Canelo Álvarez vs. Caleb Plant PPVs taking place on 6 November. Unfortunately for wrestling fans in and around St. Louis, though, Chaifetz Arena was unavailable for the rearranged Full Gear date.

Given how the event is still seven weeks away, there are currently zero confirmed matches for AEW Full Gear. That said, the belief is that we may well get a Kenny Omega vs. Bryan Danielson rematch at that PPV - this time with the Best Bout Machine's AEW World Championship on the line.
