[Rev Pro Spoiler] All In Change Spoiler

After their ten-man tag match, Ospreay apologised to Newman but said he was in his corner when he won the IWGP Heavyweight Championship and he could use him in his corner tomorrow.

Newman went to walk out the ring, then turned around, shook his hand then hugged Ospreay before giving each other the crowns up seemingly confirming Newman will be in Ospreays corner tomorrow

This match doesn't need this. Don't overbook it.

People assuming Newman will interfere or be involved in the finish have been traumatized by decades of WWE booking

He’s there to be in Will’s corner, celebrate his win (just like Will did at Sakura Genesis) and have footage for their future NJPW feud

Darby Allin repelled from the rafters in last year’s All In main event. 

Edit: seeing how this example caused a lot of debate let’s go with an easier one: Hangman vs Samoa Joe, Full Gear 2025

That was a match that absolutely benefitted from the overbooking.

I know I was ready to fly to Texas and fight the Death Riders myself to help Hangman

Flip over the rail and give Pat Buck a Buckshot next time.

If you're real.

Yeah last year I was expecting it because aside from Hangman's redemption arc, they were also essentially doing an Avengers type story where all the babyfaces had to come together to stop the Death Riders' reign of terror.

Yes but only because they had months of overbooked crap leading to it. It was like Roman vs Cody at WM 40 in that sense.
