In May 2017, Cody Rhodes and the Young Bucks proclaimed they'd sell 10,000 tickets to a self-promoted show. In May 2018, they did exactly that—in less than 30 minutes.

Tickets officially went on sale the night of May 13, and within an episode of your favorite Netflix show, they were all gone.

This is a tremendous achievement by Rhodes and The Bucks. WHile their popularity was already demonstrable, Flashing such a box office explosion marks an undeniable triumph for their brand.

"All In" is set for September 1 at Sears Centre in Hoffman Estates, Illinois.

While the actual card for the Chicago show is still a mystery, All In did just add the services of Rey Mysterio. Here's a full list of confirmed names: Cody Rhodes, Rey Mysterio The Young Bucks, Kenny Omega, Kazuchika Okada, Marty Scurll, Adam Page, Stephen Amell, Tessa Blanchard, Deonna Purrazzo, Fenix, Pentagon Jr., Chelsea Green, Joey Janela, Penelope Ford, Jay Lethal, Britt Baker, and Matt Cross.

But what made headlines last week was the addition of CM Punk. While there has been little indication of him actually wrestling, Punk did agree to an All In affiliated autograph signing the night before in Chicago. Naturally, wrestling fans are already predicting he'll be involved, even if minimally in the show the following night. For now, consider his All In appearance speculative.
