Kofi Admits AEW All In Arrival Was Wrestling's Worst-Hidden Secret

Kofi and Austin Creed debuted as The New Level at AEW All In London 2026, though Kofi said their arrival had been widely anticipated. He described unusual travel arrangements and staying away from the rest of the roster in an attempt to avoid attention. Creed added that they signed their contracts at Wembley Stadium the day before the event and met Tony Khan for the first time.
Kofi and Austin Creed appeared as The New Level at AEW All In London 2026. Before that, speculation about the former New Day members joining AEW had persisted for months, making their eventual arrival widely expected rather than shocking.
To stay unnoticed, they lodged 45 minutes from the airport and apart from other AEW talent. Kofi described an unfamiliar airport trip and a lime-green suit worn with a hoodie. Creed said they signed at Wembley Stadium the day before and met Tony Khan, with family present.
For wrestling audiences, this may heighten interest in AEW's UK expansion and talent movement between major promotions. It could also affect how companies plan surprise reveals, as leaks and fan speculation increasingly shape expectations. Fans, media, and performers may feel the effects through altered storytelling, ticket demand, and coverage.
