8. No WWE Disruption

...but WWE still belong in the discussion here, and fans of what Cody and The Young Bucks accomplished will be hoping they don't try to interfere in a sequel's surefire success.

The McMahon family must be looking on with a mixture of amazement and respect for what All In was; this was the first non-WWE or WCW wrestling show in North America to crack 10,000 fans since 1993. That in itself deserves a standing ovation. Cody and pals showed themselves as wonderful self-promoters who, crucially, also put on an excellent product.

Will WWE realistically sit idly by and let this sort of thing continue? It's surely arrogant to suggest they have a say, but this is the most powerful organisation in the industry we're talking about, and they've disrupted nuggets of success before by signing away key talent.

Much of the old TNA roster is on WWE or NXT television in 2018, and that's no happy accident. There's a slight chance WWE will try to undermine talk of All In 2 by offering Cody, The Bucks and Kenny Omega some serious cash before it happens. Fanciful? Perhaps. Out of the question? Not a chance.
