AEW Grand Slam 2027
Card Predictions

AEW's Fall Flagship Event

AEW Grand Slam has become one of the most prestigious events on the All Elite Wrestling calendar. Traditionally held in Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York, Grand Slam draws passionate crowds that create an atmosphere unlike any other in professional wrestling. The outdoor setting, the autumn air, and the electric fanbase make it unmissable.

In 2027, AEW Grand Slam is expected to deliver multiple championship changes, marquee returns, and the kind of match quality that put AEW on the map. With feuds built through the summer, Grand Slam is where stories culminate and new ones begin. Here are our full predictions.

Samoa Joe's reign of brutality meets the greatest villain in modern wrestling. MJF has been chasing the title since losing it — Grand Slam in New York, his backyard, gives him the home crowd advantage. The character contrast between Joe's silent menace and MJF's motor-mouth manipulation makes this a natural main event.

Prediction: MJF wins the AEW World Championship — New York crowd erupts, whether as face or heel reaction.

TBS Championship

The CEO has been one of AEW's most dominant champions — but Grand Slam crowds love an underdog. Willow's infectious charisma and power-based offence makes her the fan choice in a New York crowd.

Prediction: Mercedes Moné retains — Willow comes closest, sets up a future program.

AEW World Tag Team Championship

FTR's return as methodical, old-school tag specialists versus the crowd-favourite rap duo. Grand Slam audiences have historically been huge Acclaimed fans. Scissor Me Timbers territory here.

Prediction: FTR retains — The Acclaimed's time will come but not against the best tag team in the world.
