Away from the matches on the Zero Hour pre-show, the two hours as a whole was a whole bunch of fun, with Kip Sabian in particular being a highlight as he, Renee Paquette, Paul Wight, and Anthony Ogogo led the charge in selling the All In PPV for those in two minds whether to purchase what's billed as the biggest event in pro wrestling history.
Sabian is extremely well spoken, offered great insight, and his chemistry with Wight was notably fantastic.
Elsewhere, there were surprise appearances from Powerhouse Hobbs, Miro, Jeff Jarrett, Jay Lethal, Satnam Singh, Sonjay Dutt, Karen Jarrett, Grado, and physicality from Wight and Ogogo. Not to mention, our own Simon Miller rocked up as security for the Hobbs/Miro segment, with the Billington Bulldogs - nephews of the Dynamite Kid - also amongst those joining Miller.
The biggest talking point in terms of appearances, though, has to be Mercedes Moné being shown in the Wembley Stadium crowd.
It was also a lovely touch from Renee Paquette to open the pre-show with a quote from the late, great Windham Rotunda.
