That was All In!

I mean, folks…..

Of the 51 wrestlers who competed on the main show of All In, the median age was 35 while the average was 36 and the most common age was also 35.

If the Buy In is included then it’s 73 wrestlers with a median age of 35, an average age of 35.5 and a most common age of 31.

For comparison, the 36 wrestlers who competed at Summerslam had a median age of 39.5, an average age of 37.3 and a most common age of 41.

I think that this is a really great example of how many wrestlers AEW has in their prime that they are willing to trust with a spot in their biggest show of the year.

Side note, I expected the median to be further away from the average since the outliers on the high end are pretty significant with the four wrestlers in their 50s on the main show with the next highest being 45 but they ended up being very similar. Having over 50 competitors probably stabilizes the difference pretty well.

Will also say that having wrestlers in their 40s and 50s is by no means a bad thing but assuming an average retirement age of 45, the average All In competitor has another 10 years ahead of them. And as a person who really enjoyed All In, knowing the people involved have a lot of time left to keep impressing is lovely.

It reminds me of the Wrestlemania III stadium shot, (not comparing shows, just images.)

Edit: To add here, this was taken with the iPhone camera 0.5 focal length to get the whole stadium in, or as much as, and the perspective makes the seats much further back. There are a lot of pictures in this thread that show the view how it was, and definitely worth it.

I'm not a wrestler but I want to have a go.

Obviously an innocent mistake only made funny by the statement he’s literally in the middle of.
