Storylines[edit]

St. Patrick's Day Slam featured professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[7] Storylines were produced on AEW's weekly television program, Dynamite, the supplementary online streaming shows, Dark and Elevation, and The Young Bucks' YouTube series Being The Elite.

Background[edit]

At the event, Christian Cage addressed the reason behind his arrival in AEW.[8]

Through a working relationship with Impact Wrestling this event featured the Impact World Tag Team Champions The Good Brothers as they took on All Elite Wrestling's Jon Moxley and Eddie Kingston.[9][10]

In the main event, Thunder Rosa faced off against Britt Baker in an unsanctioned Lights Out match, making it the first time an AEW event was headlined by female wrestlers.[11][12]
