All Elite Wrestling (AEW) will hold its biggest event of the year, All In, on Sunday in London with several marquee matchups on the card for the pro wrestling fans who are making the trek to Wembley Stadium and for those who will tune in at home.
Lee Moriarty, who is not among those on the All In card, talked to OutKick in a recent interview about which matches he was looking forward to watching the most. He pointed to the AEW World Championship fight between Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay and the AEW Women’s World Championship battle between Willow Nightingale and Mercedes Moné.

“I would definitely say the two big marquee matches are AEW men’s and AEW women’s championship matches,” Moriarty said. “Both Kenny Omega versus Will Ospreay just because of the history they’ve had through the years. And one of my all-time favorite matches I’ve ever watched was at Forbidden Door Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay. I think it was in Canada at that time. And then we have Mercedes Moné against Willow Nightingale for the AEW Women’s World Championship. And their history going back to the New Japan Strong Championship, the TBS Championship.
“So, there’s just so much history between both of these competitors in each match and I think those are going to be really special and I’m looking forward to watching that and being inspired by it.”

Moriarty was only involved in an All In match once. It came last year when he participated in an eight-man tag team match with his Shane Taylor Promotions stablemates against Dustin Rhodes, Marshall Von Erich, Ross Von Erich and Sammy Guevara, known as the Sons of Texas. The Sons of Texas ended up winning the match.
OutKick asked Moriarty what he needed to do to get back into All In.
“I think it’s just going to take work like I’ve been doing,” he said. “Continue to put in the work. A lot of professional wrestling is timing and preparation. I’m prepared. It’s just the timing thing and I’m going to get there. I do believe that. I’m going to continue to prove I am one of the best professional wrestlers when it comes to technical wrestling in the world. And right now, I’m the best pure wrestler on the planet.”
