AEW All In. Why would I buy?

By Scott Keith on August 17, 2023

Good morning Mr. Keith. Hope all is well.

I have never bought a wrestling ppv outside chipping in with friends for a wrestlemania and/or rumble, pre-network. I have never seen a full AEW ppv, relying on the vast amounts of highlights that are on twitter and youtube, sometimes minutes after they happen live. I would LOVE for AEW to get a streaming deal so i can watch these events as live as possible, but I just never felt any justification spending the amount both AEW & WWE ask for.

Now having said that, I know I'm not the only one. I was contemplating on getting All In because its in the afternoon, i'm home all day, it will be AEW's biggest show ever and their biggest showcase on the global stage as well, i want to see how they do! I want them to succeed massively with this and carry that momentum without it going to their heads.

But honestly, besides the attendance that will look great visually, what is the selling point of this ppv? The Dynamites have been lackluster in selling me on this event. I know the talent will shine and their will be some great, maybe even MOTY candidate, wrestling, But you can literally swap this card with any AEW ppv of the past year and also with a couple going forward, and what's the difference? You have All Out RIGHT there afterwards to do all these multiman matches. Where's Kennys singles showcase in front of his biggest crowd? I don't mind me some Jericho but Ospreay will have to practically be in slow motion in his home country to make that work. 80k brits want to eat up Orange Cassidys gimmick and but now you're gonna have him walking around a stadium with 11 other men. And where the hell is Zack Sabre Jr?!?

FTR/Bucks III though will rule i'm certain of it.


FTR/Bucks and Cole/MJF will rule. Everything else is gravy or whatever it is they put on their roast beef over there.
