7 Reasons Why You MUST Watch ALL IN

4. They Deserve It! *Clap Clap Clap Clap Clap*

All In
WWE

We're about to see Stardust and Sir Brutus Magnus wrestle for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship not in a grimy old rec centre but in front of 10,000 screaming fans.

The sheer balls on that demands your money.

Cody was Stardust. He was perceived by the fandom as a decent enough worker who gamely tried to get over an array of gimmicks that ranged from the admirable to the laughable. A performer who wrestled very much in the WWE vein, it was thought also that he was a lifer. But, from Main Event to great main events of both ROH and NJPW's most successful ever US shows, the man has reinvented himself from above average developmental graduate to studious Independent scene rookie to the mafioso-attired Don of this new era capable of reaching its absurd critical height.

The Young Bucks are genuine workhorses. Nick Jackson will enter the Sears Center, if he even does, having endured constant travel, painstaking in-ring work, and an incredible commitment to fan engagement. The sheer graft and creativity involved in their matches has evidently taken a physical and mental toll on the man. To prove to him in this anxious hour that, yes, it is all worth it, he and his Elite peers genuinely deserve your hard-earned.

If we want wrestling to become a true meritocracy, and not just this Vince McMahon-controlled monopoly in which even this awesome generation signs up to put Roman Reigns over, this is how to use your voice.
