Tony Khan Reveals AEW is in Talks to Return to Mexico for Grand Slam

AEW President Tony Khan is determined to return to Mexico for the Grand Slam television special.

At the post-AEW Revolution Media Scrum, Tony Khan revealed that the company is in talks to return to Mexico. He talked about last summer’s event, noting it was a massive success and that he is absolutely focused on returning to the country for another iteration of the Grand Slam.

“It’s a great thought. I know that I would love someday to do that, but I absolutely am focused on going back for Grand Slam Mexico, which was a huge success for us. Grand Slam Mexico was the most-watched AEW Dynamite last year. It’s one of the most successful AEW Dynamites ever. A pay-per-view [in Mexico] could be a great thing. I know that we are, right now, in conversations about going back for Grand Slam Mexico, which is a hugely exciting thing for me. Of course, that was such a great memory for us.”

AEW presented the Grand Slam event from Arena Mexico on June 18, 2025. The show saw Mistico defeat current AEW World Champion Maxwell Jacob Friedman (MJF), albeit by DQ. It also saw Mercedes Mone capture the CMLL World Women’s Championship by defeating Zeuxis. The show also saw the likes of Jon Moxley, Kazuchika Okada, Samoa Joe, Mark Briscoe, etc. compete.
