PHOENIX — All Elite Wrestling announced Monday that its annual pay-per-view event Full Gear will be held at the Mortgage Matchup Center in Phoenix on Saturday, Nov. 14. The promotion’s move brings one of its biggest nights of the wrestling calendar to the city for the first time.
What fans can expect
Full Gear is known within professional wrestling for championship matches, major storyline turns and surprise moments. For Phoenix fans who have attended AEW’s weekly Dynamite and Collision broadcasts, the pay-per-view offers a chance to see marquee matches and potential watershed moments live without leaving Arizona.
- Date: Saturday, Nov. 14
- Venue: Mortgage Matchup Center, Phoenix
- Significance: First time Phoenix hosts AEW Full Gear
"AEW Full Gear is coming to Phoenix, AZ!"
The announcement underlines a pattern: since its 2019 launch, AEW has made Arizona a frequent stop, consistently drawing strong local crowds. The promotion held its flagship event Double or Nothing in Glendale in 2025 and has expanded to shows in Tucson, reflecting Arizona’s growing importance as a Southwestern market for nationally televised wrestling.
Local impact and broader context
Promoters and venue operators will be watching how Full Gear performs in Phoenix. Large pay-per-views typically bring increased hotel bookings, restaurant traffic and short-term boosts for nearby retail. For fans, the event provides a rare opportunity to attend one of pro wrestling’s larger annual shows in the Valley instead of traveling out of state.
