AEW Worlds End

Worlds End was a professional wrestling pay-per-view made by All Elite Wrestling (AEW). It was held on December 30, 2023 at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York. It was the first World's End event to take place and the first AEW pay-per-view to take place in New York.

The main event of the show saw Samoa Joe defeat Maxwell Jacob Friedman (MJF) to win the AEW World Championship. MJF tired to hit Joe with his Dynamite Diamond Ring while the referee was knocked down. Joe countered this, put MJF in a choke and made MJF pass out to win the match. After the match, the lights went out and come back on. When the lights came on, a returning Adam Cole sat in the ring with four masked men. The men pulled off their masks and revealed themselves to be The Kingdom (Matt Taven & Mike Bennett), Roderick Strong, and Wardlow. They attacked MJF after his match and Cole pulled The Devil mask out of his jacket, therefore revealing himself to be The Devil and betraying MJF.

The finals of the Continental Classic also took place during the event. In the finals, Eddie Kingston defeated Jon Moxley to retain his ROH World Championship and NJPW Strong Openweight Championship. He also became a Triple Crown Champion when he won the first AEW Continental Championship. Also, Andrade El Idolo had his last match in AEW at the event. AEW owner Tony Khan said during the post event press scrum that Andrade's contract had expired.
