I don't see that anywhere lol. But I guess after selling all the tickets, they can literally announce everyone else that weren't gonna help them draw for this lol.

There's just something that feels so right about the thought of Cody winning the NWA championship. I am however quite surprised that this is his match at All In and that he isn't facing Kenny Omega.

Jimmy Jacobs is now-sorta-kinda-in. He'll be making an appearence at Starrcast '18, the convention next to All In. I was surprised he wasn't #AllIn almost immeadetly, seems like his deal with BC and The Bucks was a quick trend thing to hop on. At least he's here though.

While on Wrestling Observer Radio, Cody [Rhodes] revealed that the All In show may not actually air on PPV television.

 

The All In event is still months away, but the tickets for the independently produced show sold out in just under 30 minutes, surprising everyone.

 

When discussing the show on the Wrestling Observer Radio, Cody explained why the show may not actually be airing to those, not in attendance.

 

Here is what he had to say:

 

Streaming pay-per-view tv basically it being accessible obviously we have talked about it and we have talked to various people who are capable of doing that for us. Its a matter of maybe the best potential deal. But its also a matter of we have guys like Pentagon who is represented elsewhere we have guys like Okada who is representing New Japan Pro Wrestling and we have me, Matt, and Nick who are Ring Of Honor guys but also New Japan guys.

 

So from what we understand, contractual issues may be a huge stepping stone for competitors working the show as the majority of them work for specific companies.

The rumor mill surrounding CM Punk making an appearance at All In is about to go into overdrive because the ex-WWE champ was apparently backstage during the shows press conference.

 

Jenn Sterger who hosted the conference spilled the beans during an interview on the latest Collider Bodyslam podcast.

 

If you got your tickets at face value for this event, Im just saying it literally might be the best in the world, Sterger told the show. I will only say someone wearing sweatpants and training for something walked into the back of the building that the press conference was in with marks, mind you, lining the entire sidewalks in the front of the building and I just kept thinking if they knew you were back here, they would literally tear down the front of the store.'

 

The host says CM Punk was allegedly there to pick up shirts from Pro Wrestling Tees, but none of the people involved in the event would confirm or deny if hed be making an appearance at All In.

 

With a scheduled signing the day before the event, and the fact he lives in Chicago, Jenn told the show that she thinks it only makes sense for the UFC fighter to be there. Adding, What better way if you were going to make your return to wrestling than the biggest indie show ever?

As the All In event approaches, there have been heightened discussions on whether former WWE Champion CM Punk will make an appearance. Punk is scheduled to make a very rare wrestling-related appearance a night before the show on August 31 at Pro Wrestling Tees, but has not confirmed that he will be attending the All In show as a competitor or a spectator.

 

On June 9th in Chicago, CM Punk will make his UFC return, as he is scheduled to fight Mike Jackson at UFC 225. Along with both fighters having a UFC record of 0-1, each loss was to Mickey Gall in the first round. However, CM Punk was able to last longer than Jackson.

 

On Booker T's Heated Conversations podcast, he brought back up two huge factors that gives Jackson the advantage. The first one is the age factor. CM Punk turns 40 this year, while Jackson is 33. The other factor is prior MMA experience. Although both have only fought once in UFC, Jackson has longer experience on training for MMA. Based on these factors, Booker believes that Jackson will take out Punk.

 

Booker then discussed whether Punk will return to wrestling if he loses again.

 

"I think he'll be at All In," said Booker. "I think if he lose this fight, he'll be at All In, with the Young Bucks [and] Cody Rhodes, making his way back to the pro wrestling world. I really think CM Punk [misses] the wrestling world. I just think he had a bad taste in his mouth, but he can get it back."

 

CM Punk has made it known throughout various interviews after leaving WWE that he has no desire to return. His last match was at the 2014 Royal Rumble event, being eliminated by Corporate Kane. On top of being exhausted and, in his opinion, poorly utilized, Punk was upset that he never had an opportunity to main event WrestleMania, despite having a marquee match against The Undertaker at WrestleMania 29.
