In the year where AEW runs its most ever PPVs in a 12-month span, AEW Full Gear marks the second-to-last such event of 2023 for Tony Khan's promotion - and excitement is high for what has shaped up to be an absolutely stacked card.
On headlining duties for Full Gear, it's Maxwell Jacob Friedman defending his AEW World Championship against 'Switchblade' Jay White. While that match in and of itself will be a war for the Salt of the Earth, making things even tougher for MJF is that he'll also be defending the ROH Tag Team Championships against the Gunns during the Full Gear pre-show. With his partner Adam Cole on the shelf indefinitely, Friedman goes into that tag match with the prospect of a mystery partner to take on Austin and Colten Gunn.
For the AEW Women's Championship, Full Gear will see Hikaru Shida defending that prize against 'Timeless' Toni Storm. Having become on the most must-see acts in AEW, could Toni become a three-time AEW Women's Champion by the time Full Gear is done? Likewise, what role, if any, will the recently-arrived Mariah May have to play in all of this?
In other title matches, we've got Kris Statlander defending the AEW TBS Championship in triple-threat action against Julia Hart and Sky Blue; Orange Cassidy puts the AEW International Title on the line against former champ Jon Moxley; and Ricky Starks and Big Bill have their hands full as they defend the AEW Tag Team Championships against not one, not two, but three teams, as FTR, La Faccion Ingobernable, and the Kings of the Black Throne come calling.
Elsewhere, 'Hangman' Adam Page and Swerve Strickland could well steal the show as they do battle in a hotly-anticipated Texas Death Match. There's similarly plenty at stake as the Golden Jets and the Young Bucks lock horns, with Chris Jericho and Kenny Omega having to split up if they lose, but earning themselves the Bucks' shot at the AEW Tag Team Championships should these Canadians be victorious. Finally, Full Gear is rounded out by the babyface trio of Sting, Darby Allin, and Adam Copeland taking on Luchasaurus, Nick Wayne, and Copeland's long-time best pal-turned-bitter rival Christian Cage.

AEW Full Gear 2023: What other matches are there besides the title defenses?
With six titles on the line at AEW Full Gear, there's still plenty of excitement away from these championship bouts. Most notably, there's Adam Page vs. Swerve Strickland in a Texas Death Match.
Having wowed at AEW WrestleDream last month - in a match which Swerve won - these two rivals once again do battle, but this time with a far more personal slant to the contest. With Strickland having broken into the Page household and tormented Hangman's young child, this feud has taken an entirely more heated turn in recent weeks.
In tag team action, AEW Full Gear 2023 will see the Golden Jets tandem of Chris Jericho and Kenny Omega taking on the Young Bucks. With brewing discord between Omega and the Bucks in recent weeks, one stipulation at play here is that Kenny and Jericho have to split up should they lose this match. On the other side of that, the Golden Jets will take Matt and Nick Jackson's shot at the AEW Tag Team Championships should the Canadian duo score the victory.
Finally, Full Gear features a six-man match where Sting, Darby Allin, and Adam Copeland will face Luchasaurus, Nick Wayne, and Christian Cage. Of course, Copeland and Cage have plenty of history together, having broken into the business alongside one another in the then-WWF before both having impressive singles runs with the nowadays WWE.
