An update has emerged regarding an AEW star potentially leaving his current faction after All In London 2026.

With The Don Callis Family being as large as it is in terms of numbers, it’s only natural that tensions between members should arise; something that has happened on several occasions throughout the group’s existence in AEW.

The likes of Will Ospreay, Konosuke Takeshita and Andrade El Idolo have all been kicked out, or left Don Callis’ side in recent years, and fans have wondered whether reigning AEW International Champion Kyle Fletcher could be next.

With ‘The Protostar’ running into some issues with the family’s newest recruit Kevin Knight – and set to clash with another fellow family member Kazuchika Okada at All In London on Sunday – TMZ Sports’ Inside The Ring asked Don Callis himself whether there’s any possibility of Fletcher losing his spot in his group should he lose inside Wembley Stadium.

Defiantly declaring that there’s zero possibility of Fletcher ever leaving his side, Don Callis replied:

“Kyle Fletcher will never lose his spot in The Don Callis Family.

“Kyle Fletcher is the product of many sets of testing that I have done. I started with Kenny Omega. And then I upgraded at the time to Konosuke Takeshita. Then I had Will Ospreay if you recall. In fact Will Ospreay was only ever able to beat Kenny Omega, by his own admission, with my help when I was managing, when he was in the family. So, you start to work all the bugs out the system and then what you end up with: genetic perfection. And that’s what I’ve got with Kyle Fletcher.

“There’s not one thing about Kyle that I would change. There’s not one thing about him that I would say ‘Geez, if only this was a little better, we could do this.’ Kyle Fletcher will be in The Don Callis Family as long as there is breath in Don Callis’ body. And, I like to think Kyle Fletcher will carry my name on, forward into the future for 30, 40, 50 years. He is destined to become the greatest professional wrestler in the history of the industry.”

When one of the interviewers pondered how those comments would make Okada feel, Callis ensured that ‘The Rainmaker’ has now problem building up and supporting Fletcher at this point in his career:

“I’ll tell you how Okada feels. Okada understands, Okada is at a different stage in his career than Kyle. Okada has been IWGP Champion, he’s been International Champion, he’s been Continental Champion. Okada now loves being a part of something. He loves being a part of the family.

“This is a guy who moved from Japan to New York City, to the USA – didn’t speak any English – and now through the help of The Don Callis Family his English is incredible, and he’s accomplishing incredible things.

“When Wayne Gretzky went from the Edmonton Oilers to the LA Kings, he’d already set all the scoring records. Now he wanted to be a part of something, he wanted to be a part of a fabric in Los Angeles, he wanted to grow the league.

“Okada is a builder, not everyone has the same goals all the time. So, I think Okada will be great supporting Kyle now, tomorrow, next year, and into the future.”

Thankfully for Don Callis, Fletcher and Okada will not be forced to fight one-on-one at All In London, as Konosuke Takeshita is also involved in the International Title match this Sunday.

Elsewhere on the AEW All In London card, Don Callis will also have an eye on Kevin Knight’s AEW TNT Championship match with Darby Allin; which will be staged under Falls Count Anywhere rules.
