Production

The event was held at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, marking the second Full Gear held at the venue, after 2022.

Background

Full Gear is a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event held annually in November by All Elite Wrestling (AEW) since 2019, generally around the week of Veterans Day. It is one of AEW's "Big Five" PPVs, which includes Double or Nothing, All In, All Out, and Revolution, their five biggest pay-per-view events produced throughout the year. Out of the five, Full Gear is AEW's only pay-per-view to be traditionally held on a Saturday.[2] On April 11, 2024, AEW announced that the sixth Full Gear event would take place on November 23, 2024, at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, marking the second Full Gear held at the venue, after 2022.[3][4]

Storylines

Full Gear featured professional wrestling matches that were the result of pre-existing feuds and storylines, with results being predetermined by AEW's writers. Storylines were produced on AEW's weekly television programs, Dynamite, Collision, and Rampage.[5] To promote the event, AEW produced and aired a full-length video package set to the Guns N' Roses song "November Rain", reviving a practice undertaken by Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) to promote its own November to Remember series of PPVs in the 1990s.[6]

At WrestleDream on October 12, Jon Moxley defeated Bryan Danielson to win the AEW World Championship for the fourth time. After the match, Moxley and his Blackpool Combat Club stablemates attacked Danielson despite Darby Allin, Private Party (Isiah Kassidy and Marq Quen), and Jeff Jarrett trying to save Danielson. Eventually, Orange Cassidy and most of the AEW locker room came to Danielson's rescue causing Moxley and his stablemates to retreat. The BCC were soon after renamed Death Riders.[7] On the October 23 episode of Dynamite, Moxley and his stablemates attacked Cassidy's former Best Friends stablemate Chuck Taylor before Moxley's stablemates placed a steel chair around Taylor's neck which Moxley stomped on. Cassidy then ran out, with most of the AEW locker room, to Taylor causing Moxley and his stablemates to retreat.[8] At Fright Night Dynamite on October 30, Cassidy opened the show and challenged Moxley to a match for his championship at Full Gear, which was later made official.[9]

On the October 23 episode of Dynamite, Adam Cole was interrupted by Roderick Strong, Matt Taven, and Mike Bennett. Strong said when Cole came to them with the idea to take out MJF, they immediately said yes because they were real friends. He said they needed to finish the job on MJF. Cole once again challenged MJF to come out, but was greeted by another video package. MJF reiterated that he would not be facing Cole, but did lay out terms for a potential match. He said he would face Cole or Strong, and all they had to do was win three matches. Whoever won their three matches first would get to face him at Full Gear. At Fright Night Dynamite, Cole defeated Buddy Matthews in his first match since September 2023.[10] The following week on Dynamite, he defeated Matthews' House of Black stablemate Malakai Black.[11] Meanwhile, on the November 2 episode of Collision, Strong defeated Shane Taylor.[12] The next week, Strong would defeat The Beast Mortos.[13] On the November 13 episode of Dynamite, Cole would lose to Konosuke Takeshita while Strong would defeat Lance Archer in a Falls Count Anywhere match. As a result, Strong was scheduled to take on MJF at the event.[14]

At WrestleDream, Daniel Garcia returned and confronted Jack Perry, who had just defeated Katsuyori Shibata to retain his AEW TNT Championship only to be confronted himself by a returning MJF. While Garcia's back was turned, Perry hit him with the title belt and walked away.[7] On the November 9 episode of Collision, Perry defeated Action Andretti to retain the TNT Championship. Garcia then confronted Perry once again and challenged him to a match at Full Gear with the championship on the line to which Perry accepted.[15]

On the October 4 episode of Rampage, Kris Statlander was confronted by Mercedes Moné and her bodyguard Kamille with Moné insulting Statlander.[16] At Fright Night Dynamite, Statlander defeated Kamille only for Moné to attack Statlander from behind.[10] A match between the two was later made official for Full Gear with Moné's AEW TBS Championship on the line.[17]

At WrestleDream on October 12, Jay White defeated "Hangman" Adam Page.[7] The following week on Collision, a rematch was set up for Full Gear.[18]

On October 28, AEW announced on X that social media personality and former wrestler "Big Boom!" A.J., with his son Big Justice in his corner, would wrestle Q. T. Marshall on the Zero Hour show.[19] On the November 20 episode of Dynamite, Big Justice announced that his friend and fellow social media personality The Rizzler would serve as the special guest timekeeper for the match.[20]

On the July 10 episode of Dynamite, Mariah May, who was the protégé of then-AEW Women's World Champion "Timeless" Toni Storm, won the 2024 Women's Owen Hart Cup (along with an AEW Women's World Championship match) and turned heel on Storm.[21] May then defeated Storm for the AEW Women's World Championship at All In on August 25.[22] May later announced that she would celebrate her title win only when her friend and tag team partner Mina Shirakawa returned. On the November 16 episode of Collision, after successfully defending her title against Anna Jay, May reunited with Shirakawa once again, and May's champagne title celebration with Shirakawa was set for Full Gear.[23]
