The 2023 Worlds End was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by All Elite Wrestling (AEW). It was the inaugural Worlds End and took place on Saturday, December 30, 2023, at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York on Long Island, marking the company's first PPV to be held in the state of New York. The event featured the final of the inaugural Continental Classic to crown the inaugural AEW Continental Champion, and subsequently, AEW's first "American Triple Crown Champion".
Thirteen matches were contested at the event, including three on the "Zero Hour" pre-show. In the main event, Samoa Joe defeated MJF by technical submission to win the AEW World Championship. In another prominent match, Eddie Kingston defeated Jon Moxley in the Continental Classic final to become Triple Crown Champion, retaining the ROH World Championship and NJPW Strong Openweight Championship and winning the inaugural AEW Continental Championship. The event also saw Andrade El Ídolo's final match in AEW as his contract expired following the event.
