A large fire broke out in London on Friday near Wembley Stadium having some impact on AEW ahead of this Sunday’s All In 2026 event.
The London Fire Brigade’s website stated that this fire broke out at an industrial mixed waste facility in Neasden, which is under a mile from Wembley Stadium.
Twenty-five fire engines and around 125 firefighters were sent to the scene of the fire to put it out.
It was also stated that the cause of the fire is currently not known.
“Twenty fire engines and around 125 firefighters are responding to a fire on Hannah Close, Neasden. Residents in the immediate area should close doors and windows, remaining inside where possible, due to the large amount of smoke being produced.
The fire is located at a mixed waste facility, and an industrial unit approximately 100m by 150m is currently alight. Three of the Brigade’s 32m ladders have been mobilised to the scene as part of our response, alongside the Brigade’s Drone Team. Firefighters have also deployed a hose laying unit and high volume pump to the scene. This will increase the amount of water available to firefighters as they work to bring the fire under control.
Tube services on the Metropolitan and Jubilee lines will be impacted as crews respond. Rail services into London Marylebone are also disrupted as a result of this fire. The brigade’s control room took the first of over 70 calls reporting the fire at 11.34am. Crews from Wembley, Park Royal, Willesden and surrounding fire stations have been mobilised to the scene.
The cause of the fire is not yet known.”
The BBC reported that while public transport is getting back on track, the disruption caused by the fire was set to last well into the Friday evening.
In regards to AEW, Fightful Select reported that this fire affected everything from AEW’s All In media day to wrestlers getting to travel and see sights in the city.
