I thought Cody and The Buck were supposed to draw 10,000 not CM Punk?

Apparently they're doing this on September 1st, which is directly up against night 2 of PWG BOLA, Chikara's King of Trios, and a bunch of other non-wrestling events going on that weekend.
I know it's a holiday weekend and such but that feels like a poor choice of date if you're trying to maximize turnout. |

Yes but you might get people who are big fans of PWG or Chikara opting to stay home and watch on iPPV.
If this show is hoping to draw 10k they need as little else going on that weekend in the wrestling world as possible. Especially since all three shows draw from the same fan pool. |

Yeah, called All In, which is a pretty good name for what they're doing.
So far Cody, The Bucks, Kenny Omega, Hangman Page, Marty Scurll and TV's Steven Amell. Got 10.9k Twitter Followers in 4 hours. Now just gotta get dem buys. |

I didn't realize Cody Rhodes new gimmick was that of a tortured and struggling artist whose dream it was to draw 10 people! Is he attempting to draw 10 people on one canvas? If so, how big is the canvas? Is he going to draw the 10 people freehand? Water colors? Paint by numbers? What are the time restraints on completion of the drawing of 10 people? Can he last long enough to draw 10 people? That seems like it would push him to his limits. Does he even own an easel? I'm not sure if Cody can draw 10 people, especially without an easel.

Saw Cody reply to someone saying there will be at least one women's match at the show... I hope to god for his sake he doesn't book Brandi.

No, but it seems imminent. Bullet Club looks like it'll be divided unless Cody fully usurps him and they go with a full blown face, stable-less Omega push.
That might be for the best because if they split into Bullet Club and The Elite.......the Bullet Club portion will likely be Cody, Fale, the Guerrilas of Destiny, Leo Tonga, Chase Owens, and Yujiro Takahashi. Nothing against them but yeah........that's essentially the nWo B-team. |

Cody would get 20,000 people attending if he grew back his moustache.

If he had the mustache and was wrestling Steve Blackman, they could sell out a stadium.

Cody vs. Kenny Omega is probably the biggest main event they can do without bringing in CM Punk pro bono. Jericho would probably work for chips too, but who would he face? Ibushi? I would actually like to see Dalton Castle vs. Chris Jericho. I'm sure ROH talent will be involved.

Need to find that blank "All In" background without a wrestler in it. For comedy purposes.

Listened to a really good podcast that shared my views, instead of the "Whoa, boy, give it a shot, lads!" naivety (as I perceive it). I want wrestling to be good outside WWE more than anything, but not sure that Cody Rhodes and The Bucks are the ones to do it.

Tessa Blanchard is hot, but is she going to be able to draw 10,000 people? From the back seats, it'll be hard to tell her apart from a Jackson.

They're gradually introducing the people who are booked, including the undercard, over the next few weeks/months until tickets go on sale. I don't see the problem with this. |

Saw someone do this mock-up as the card:
![]() Not even certain that gets them to 10,000, to be honest. With the right promotion it would, but there is a lot of banking on Punk and Danielson returning to the ring. Ibushi, Omega, Cody, The Bucks, Neville and Scurll aren't going to draw. |

I like Kota a lot. He's got that Tanahashi babyface vibe about him. If I were Kota I'd...maybe weight against it, just because the WWE is so fucking shit at booking babyfaces. And heels. And yeah. He can probably edge his way up into the Magnificent Seven Figure Club in New Japan and possibly be a pillar like Okada, Naito and Omega.
My heart really wants to see Kota Ibushi mix it up with AJ Styles, Shinsuke Nakamura and Randy Orton on SmackDown over the WWE Championship (imagine a heel Orton against Ibushi before you judge me). But I just have no faith. |
