3. Not Built Around The Matches

Aside from the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship match, there are no other contests currently announced for All In. Despite this, tickets sold out in record time. The audience attending the event seem to be heading to the show not caring about any of the other action that is yet to be signed.

While the majority of the card hasn't been revealed, some tremendous talent has been announced. From Japanese icons such as Kazuchika Okada and reigning IWGP Heavyweight Champion Kenny Omega to industry veterans like Rey Mysterio and Jay Lethal, the lineup is stacked.

Much of the main talent had been revealed in the build to tickets being released on 13 May, but it was going to sell out either way. The attraction that surrounds All In hasn't been built around the matches or the roster, but rather the aura that's been created from when All In was first announced. Never has there been an indy wrestling event of this significance. Of course, there are people who will be heading along to see some of the matches that will be happening - just look at the roster, there's going to be quite a bit of quality in-ring competition. But the bulk of attendees will want to be there in-person for the sheer fact that is will be an important day in wrestling history.
