But there's always some stars, who shine just that bit brighter than others. Here are the 5 MVPs of All In.

Remember, this list is purely subjective, feel free to have your own MVPs for this truly amazing show.


#5 Chris Jericho

All In... IS...JERICHO!

The WWE star has made major waves over the past year outside of the company, appearing at WrestleKingdom 12 against Kenny Omega in January, and capturing the IWGP Intercontinental championship from Tetsuya Naito in June.

But no-one could've expected the first-ever Undisputed Champion to make the impact he did at All In. Following a victory over Pentagon Jr by Kenny Omega, Jericho blindsided the IWGP Heavyweight champion, in full Penta garb, hitting the code breaker, before unmasking.

It was shocking, incredible and truly one of Jericho's highlights in what has been a truly incredible 2018 for the Canadian.

#4 Stephen Amell

As a TV and Movie star, it would've been easy for Amell to rest on his laurels, and capitalize on his stardom as billionaire Oliver Queen, who moonlights as the emerald-clad superhero on CW's Arrow.

Instead, Amell has entered the world of Pro-Wrestling, and at All In, truly took it to the established Christopher Daniels.

It may not have been the best match of the night, but there's no denying that the Canadian actor went above and beyond to give the fans, both in Chicago and at home, a match worth watching.

#3 Kazuchika Okada

Never one to disappoint, Okada brought his A-Game, when he took on Marty Scrull.

Despite a slightly rushed match, as well as some devastating attacks from Scrull, Okada was able to get the win with two classic Rainmaker clotheslines.

Wrestling fans have come to expect excellence from Okada, and there's a good reason for it. Once again, he impressed.

#2 The Fans

Yes, this may be cliche, but without a captivated audience, pro-wrestling can't work. But often, a show can live or die by the crowd, just look at the main event of WWE's Extreme Rules pay per view.

But the fans at All In certainly helped the show, bringing a raw, emotional energy to every match, especially the NWA Championship match. With such a sea of support, it would've been difficult for anyone not to get enthralled in the pure spectacle of the event.

And speaking of the NWA Champion...

#1 Cody

A Drea
A Dream, fulfilled.

Dashing. Scarred. Bullet Club member. The American Nightmare. Whatever you call him, you can add NWA World Champion to that list.

In a match with a big-fight feel, Cody defeated Nick Aldis to capture the coveted 10 pounds of Gold. It was a truly monumental contest, with both stars coming out with an entourage.

With tears in his eyes, the American Nightmare bested the British star, capturing the same title is late, truly great father held, over 30 years ago.
