Beyond the in-ring action, AEW Revolution 2026 delivered plenty of interesting moments and behind-the-scenes details worth noting. Wayne Brady was in the front row for the show and was joined at ringside by actors Clint Howard and Freddie Prinze Jr. Several executives from Warner Bros. Discovery and DC Comics were also in attendance, according to PWInsider.
MJF’s ring gear paid tribute to hardcore wrestling legend Terry Funk, a fitting choice given the Texas Death Match main event format. Bandido, who fell to Andrade El Idolo on the main card, wore gear honoring Super Dragon — the founder of Pro Wrestling Guerrilla. AEW also sold special “AEW x NFL” lucha masks themed after the Los Angeles Chargers and Rams at the event.
