AEW Double or Nothing 2023

CM Punk! CM Punk!

This match is fucking awful.  Needs more Sabu.

[The Thread Killer]

This crowd is pretty rough too.

[Perfectly Straightedge]

Can you blame them? That ending was absolutely terrible! 

[Stiva]

This crowd is dead for, what has probably been, the weakest build for an AEW PPV so far. Also, why are the announcers ringside now?!

[Perfectly Straightedge]

Good question but if I had to guess it would be due to the design of the set. I did get a kick out of Ross fussing about the fan behind him during commentary.

[Stiva]

My other assumption is that they need the table for a spot during Anarchy in the Arena but, if otherwise. let’s try and stop the WWE-lite nonsense creeping in before it fucks everything more than it already has 

[The Thread Killer]

I’m still trying to wrap my head around a referee stoppage in an Unsanctioned Match.

[Zoo Enthusiast]

Thankfully Jeff Jarrett is here to get this back on track.

[Stiva]

Jarrett, Lethal and FTR running through the Memphis back catalogue is so great. Run it back! I’d bet Jarrett hasn’t even scratched the surface yet

[Zoo Enthusiast]

Masterful gameplan by the head coach.

[Stiva]

Willow Vs Storm at Forbidden Door?

[Jmare007]

I'm watching this late. Did they royally fuck up micking up the crowd? I'm three matches in and it sounds like no one gives a fuck. The only two big reactions so far were RICKAAAAAYYYY eliminating Juice and White-O and the final minutes of the awesome tag title match.

Jarret's run as a midcard stooge is fucking awesome. I think we could get a cool 3 month run with him and the TNT title

Cole vs Jericho was so bad I skipped like half of it, I hope the feud continues so I can continue to skip 1 match and not 2 going forward.

 

[Zoo Enthusiast]

Hope this run goes better for Statlander.  Liked her pre-AEW but she fell very flat out of the gate.

[KawadaSmile]

I guess Stat winning once she came back was obvious, but doing so in a true WMIX fashion was not what I expected!

[Jmare007]

6 man tag was dope. I think HOB has done more for these belts than the best of 7 early in the year.

[Dav'oh]

Crowd math: 4 minutes + 5 dives = This Is Awesome!

[Perfectly Straightedge]

This match is BY far the match of the night. Not saying much cause most of the card has been terrible besides the HoB and a few parts of a few matches but I am enjoying this one very much.

[Zoo Enthusiast]

I enjoyed that one.  Christian was right about Jungle Jack.  S-a-w-f-t.

[Dav'oh]

Good stuff. They're all still under-seasoned but they put on a fun match.

[Jmare007]

Surprised at how little the crowd reacted to both coffin drops by Darby. Thought they were done perfectly as nearfalls but Jungle Boy teasing using the belt got a bigger reaction.

[Perfectly Straightedge]

Boy, this theme sucks.

[Perfectly Straightedge]

I totally thought this dude was in Blackface....wow.....

Yeah this band stuff is bizarre.

[Jmare007]

I think we all thought that dude was wearing blackface, is it a mask?

Still, they all gotta go up there and fuck up that band.
