Am on the way back home after All In, my thoughts as follows:

• First and foremost I had a really good time. Pretty much everyone was super friendly and chill, a bunch of people had dressed up, and there were very few dickheads. In the boxpark earlier in the afternoon the DJ had an entrance music playlist, which was pretty much all WWE themes, but everyone was really positive and having a good time. Actual wrestling fans are not tribal dickheads.
• The only two bits of genuine pride I have in the UK is our ability to form a queue anywhere, and how loud our crowds are. I wasn’t able to get a picture (because I don’t like taking pictures in public with other people’s faces visible) but all the queues leading in to the entrance ways were snakes with multiple turns, with no barriers. It was a thing of beauty.
• The faces got cheered, the heels got booed, and pretty much everyone got a big pop, and some of them you could actually feel the vibrations in your chest. Any ironic chants - like a few CM Punk ones - got drowned out very quickly.
• A couple of guys near us tried to start an En-ger-land chant during Ospreay vs MJF, and they got booed out immediately. The complete lack of nationalistic chants (except the cheeky booing of the USA during Martha’s speech) is such a welcome departure from insipid USA! USA! nonsense.
• I’m still coming down from the dopamine high of Hayter’s return 💪 and I’m so happy for Nigel.
• While The Learning Tree has been really fun, this programme has done nothing for Hook. Jericho really needs to take a 6 month break and come back in a reduced capacity. I’m sure there is a lot of value we don’t see behind the curtain, but he just distracts from everyone else.
• We will always love Big Willy - be that Bill, Ospreay, Hobbs, Starkz, Gunn, Mack, or any others I’ve forgotten
• Having the TBS belt at the top end of the card, and the Women’s so much lower, is bad from a pure kayefabe perspective. A few people mentioned in the live thread about it being a piss break match, but I cannot stress how easy it is to go for a piss in Wembley, I managed to get a pint and go to the loo between every second match, and only really missed the entrances, and the lines for the ladies toilets were even shorter. In short, there is not a need for piss break matches, and I can only assume it was there because of Mercedes’ contract. Which is something TK needs to handle much better, because the crowd did not care at all.
