They are doing it again... the whole thing with teasing a turn again and again and going a step further with it every single time and there are multiple moments, which would be THE moment to do it... but then they just don't do it and the kettle's boiling more and more. :lol Ridiculous, but I also can't say it turns me off the angle. I'm still gonna lose it when Luchasaurus finally does snap.

Speaking of the Casino Gauntlet... What an absolute ridiculous line-up in that Match. I mean, just the amount of sheer technical talent booked in that one single Match... fuckin' hell. :owens3

Nikki Bella talks watching the Mariah/Storm match:

“The girls got on the screen so I was like, ‘Teo, come watch what Mommy used to do. And it was really cute because it was Toni Storm vs. Mariah May and he was just in awe from their entrances and he was watching them wrestle.”

“I found myself cheering on Mariah May and Teo wanted Toni Storm so we were just having this fun little moment.”
“I was just in awe of so many of the wrestlers and the performances at All In. Toni Storm and Mariah May, there is a women’s match to watch if you’re not like a wrestling fan but maybe you’re like ‘I want to watch something.’ Their match from AEW All In was so incredible. The storytelling, the moves, I was just in awe of those women.”

Mercedes Mone comments on her match from the show:

I’ve performed in stadium shows before, so I was expecting to hear mixed things from the crowd. In a stadium ring, it takes a while to hear crowd reactions. You have to wait for the sound to rise all the way up and then come back down. You have to take this into consideration to mentally prepare and adjust but it’s definitely a factor.
“I’ve heard a lot of mixed reactions to my All In match with Britt. I had a really good time out there with her. I did sense some audience fatigue. It’s only natural being third to last, as the crowd had already seen over 10 matches before ours. They arrived at 5:30, and by the time we came out, it was around 9:00. That’s a long time but, at the same time, amazing because AEW really gave them their money’s worth. I could hear some DMD and CEO chants but again it’s harder in a stadium. Britt told me later, that on video you can hear crowd reactions much better and that there were more crowd reactions than we felt.”
“My robe, which was so beautiful, grand, and regal, was also my most expensive in my 14 years of wrestling. The whole outfit, in total, cost me over $10,000, All In (no pun intended).”

“As far as wrestlers investing so much money into their attire, it really depends on where they’re at in their career. If you’re not there salary wise, you try to find cheaper ways to look your best and it’s for sure possible. I did. When it comes to the biggest events, you invest all that you can. These stages are huge and these moments last forever so you want to put your best foot forward. It doesn’t always come down to money. It comes down to investing the time, being creative and resourceful. Doing so elevates standards and elevates your character. I feel it’s all worth it, and in the end, it does pay off. I hope to teach this sentiment to some of the younger girls on our roster.”

Early buy estimates from the Observer:

He [Tony Khan] didn’t mention PPV that night but later said it was one of the two biggest of the past year, with Revolution, the Sting retirement show, which did 180,000 buys. At press time the numbers we have are up 40.8 percent from the Forbidden Door show for television buys as of the same number of days after the show. The streaming numbers were up closer to 45 percent from that show at press time. If we estimate 120,000 for the last show, this would work out to a preliminary estimate at press time of in the 167,000 to 173,000 range. About 46.2 percent of the All In buyers also purchased Forbidden Door. Of the people who purchased SummerSlam on PPV, only 5.5 percent purchased All In, which is a much lower percentage crossover as recent WWE shows have had 10 percent or more crossover buys with AEW in the same month.

That number would be well above most predictions before the show, and keep in mind it was live at 1 p.m. Eastern and 10 a.m. Pacific for the main show, rather than the usual prime time. Last year’s All In ended up at around 205,000 buys. Based on how late buys do, this looks to end up being around the fourth or fifth largest in AEW’s history.

This year London was like here get your fucking turnstile count already :lol

46,476 this year, which is actually the exact same percentage of 13% unused based on the WrestleTix number (since AEW didn't announce one this year) as last year's show and prior AEW PPVs they later compared after everyone freaked out about the one turnstile count ever reported in wrestling history last year
