Infinity Land Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Next Sunday AEW returns to Las Vegas for Double or Nothing. Just a reminder in case anyone is caught out. Because of the Platinum Jubilee, the last Monday in May won't be a Bank Holiday. After Rampage the card is looking set. Just the remaining Owen finalists to be decided, MJF v. Wardlow to be made "official". Maybe another Buy-In match to be added. AEW World Championship: Hangman Page (c) v. CM Punk AEW Women's World Championship: Thunder Rosa (c) v. Serena Deeb AEW World Tag Team Championship: Jurassic Express (c) v. Team Taz v. Keith Lee & Swerve Strickland TBS Championship: Jade Cargill (c) v. Anna Jay Men's Owen Hart Cup Final: Adam Cole v. Samoa Joe/Kyle O'Reilly Women's Owen Hart Cup Final: Britt Baker/Toni Storm v. Kris Statlander/Ruby Soho MJF v. Wardlow Anarchy in the Arena: Jericho Appreciation Society v. Eddie Kingston, Proud & Powerful, BCC House of Black v. Death Triangle The Hardys v. The Young Bucks Buy-In: HOOKhausen v. Tony Nese & Mark Sterling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Are FTR booked elsewhere that night? Seems mad that they’re not on the show when they’re clearly the most over Tag Team they have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merzbow Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Weren't FTR and The Hardy's teasing a rematch? I'd rather see that then the broken down Hardy's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with good reason probably, who gives a shit about Roopongi Vice. Suppose as well it’s an idea to keep them off this show then build towards something at Forbidden Door 4 weeks later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Supremo Posted May 21, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted May 21, 2022 I get that the Hardys vs. Young Bucks match is a dream match, and given the shape of Matt and Jeff you're better doing it now rather than later, but I can't be the only one who came out of Wednesday's show far more excited by a Young Bucks vs. Sting and Darby match. That's the money. Matt and Nick throwing themselves around whilst Sting no-sells everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69MeDon Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I knew they'd put together a card I wanted to watch, which is why I booked the Monday after off weeks ago. But, yet again, it looks like they're going to have too many matches on the main show. I know it's weird to complain about getting more matches for your money but every PPV they have, as much as I enjoy them, they are also overlong and I find myself burnt out 2-3 hours in.

Paid Members Supremo Posted May 21, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted May 21, 2022 Jay Lethal vs. Samoa Joe seems depressingly likely to be added to the show, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Land Posted May 21, 2022 Author Share Posted May 21, 2022 Samoa Joe v. Adam Cole or Adam Cole v. Kyle O'Reilly Samoa Joe v. Jay Lethal I know which i'd prefer. I don't think they would try and shoehorn in Joe/Lethal if Joe loses his semi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 They pretty much telegraphed Kyle winning over Joe with the whole working the arm thing against Fenix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted May 21, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted May 21, 2022 Certainly the weakest looking Double or Nothing. The build for everything bar MJF vs Wardlow has been pretty poor or rushed. There’s at least 3 matches I’d take off the card altogether and at least 5 I don’t care about. Like I said in the Dynamite thread, this “season” of AEW has been a real low point. I fear not just because of the quality of the storylines and feuds currently but the fact we’re only a few years into the company and we’re already repeating storylines (10 lashes), special matches like Battle Royals and Ladder matches have been done to death, and they’ve done so many surprise debuts now nobody lives up to the hype anymore. The two jokers on Dynamite were really crap. The huge influx of (mostly NXT) talent is smothering the brand too. There’s so many of the original AEW talent now they’ve killed builds for, relegated to Dark or are just not doing anything with just so the likes of Samoa Joe, Jay Lethal, Adam Cole and ReDragon can dominate every minute of Dynamite.

DavidB6937 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 It's definitely the least interested I've felt in an AEW show in a while.. and actually AEW in general if I'm honest. I've not felt like Dynamite has been must-watch for a while for me so I've been dipping in and out. So yeah, low anticipation levels for this one unfortunately but sometimes those are the ones that surprise me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCW Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I too am not that arsed about this show. The shit NXT lads like Cole, O Reilly, Lee and even Joe to a degree have half ruined AEW for me. Well played Vince, I suppose! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
