A title change kicked off tonight’s AEW Revolution 2026 pay-per-view event in Los Angeles immediately as the show went on air.

Ahead of tonight’s AEW Revolution event, three matches were announced for the Zero Hour pre-show, including Big Boom AJ and QT Marshall in tag team action against the Infantry.

The final match of the Zero Hour pre-show saw AEW National Champion Ricochet put his title in the line in a 21-man Blackjack Battle Royal for the title.

Jack Perry Captures Third AEW Championship

Ricochet has been feuding with Jack Perry for the AEW National Championship since December after Perry pinned Ricochet on AEW Dynamite.

After a number of failed attempts at taking the title from Ricochet, tonight was Jack Perry’s night, with the Battle Royal bleeding onto the main show of Revolution.

Perry would eliminate Ricochet as the final elimination, making him the second AEW National Champion and winning his third title in his AEW career.

Perry had previously held the AEW World Tag Team Championship alongside Luchasaurus as Jurassic Express, as well as winning the TNT Championship back in 2024.

Perry also had a reign as FTW Champion after turning on HOOK back in 2023, though the title was never officially recognised by AEW.

Next AEW Pay-Per-View Details

Following tonight’s AEW Revolution event, the promotion’s next pay-per-view will be AEW Dynasty, taking place on Sunday, April 12, 2026, which is the weekend before WWE WrestleMania 42.

Dynasty will be held at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

It will be the third edition of AEW Dynasty after the event debuted in St Louis, Missouri in 2024, and then took place in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 2025.

Swerve Strickland has main evented both editions of Dynasty so far, as the headline match in 2024 saw Strickland defeat Samoa Joe for the AEW World Championship, and then in 2025, Jon Moxley defeated Strickland to retain the same title.

There are currently no known matches for Dynasty 2026 as of this writing, as the directions will come clear in the coming weeks on Dynamite and Collision.

After Dynasty, the next AEW pay-per-view will be Double Or Nothing taking place at Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, New York on May 24.

Double Or Nothing was the promotion’s first ever event in 2019 and has taken place every year since then as one of the five ‘major’ pay-per-view events.

Last year’s Double Or Nothing saw Hangman Adam Page defeat Will Ospreay in the main event to win the 2025 Owen Hart Foundation tournament.
