That ending was fucking LAME!
That evolution of Jericho entrance was awesome.
Huh, I dunno if anyone saw that finish coming.
That was a letdown compared to the previous matches. Not in who won since I was fine with either. It just didn't seem as exciting and the finish was lame.
Called it on Discord! Jericho beats Page next. Omega chases Jericho and the title.
Fucking awesome!
Wow! What an ending.
I marked huge for the Super Smash Bros debut. Love that the crowd didn't know who they were lol. If you're gonna be a so called BTE fan and follow the Young Bucks you gotta at least know their history in PWG with these guys lol. Evil Uno is a stand out for me. Jon Moxley at the end was awesome.
I'm reading the show recap on the WON website and not even the reviewer know who the Super Smash Bros are.
Here's a quick video of their match vs the Young Bucks at last year's ROH/NJPW War of the Worlds tour

He talks about getting busted open at 2:25.
It was Brandi hitting him with Cody's cane which has a wolf head on it.
Finished up the show this morning and just wow. Overall was very entertained. They had their hiccups but nothing too bad. My only gripe is the patting on the back Cody/Bucks sort of do.
Anywhere i can watch this? I saw some highlights from r/sc and was pretty blown away
I'd imagine it's on the high seas somewhere.
And it's been confirmed by Cody that Moxley has signed a multiyear deal.
What a get for AEW, especially with how WWE was still treating him like such a big deal on his way out.
I do not have the illusion that <insert WWE person> will automatically be better used or just better in AEW. I am very intrigued to see what will happen to those that do join. I realize AEW only has so much space to occupy. I hope they realize regardless of said space if a big name pops up that they can get they should indeed get that person. Getting Mox is not only huge for AEW currently but it could be the thing that pushes others to explore other avenues.
Now that it's been a day, I still think Double or Nothing was excellent. I really liked that they were able to highlight so many different styles of wrestling. Each match on the main card felt unique which is what wrestling always was until WWE decided their style was the only way. I also felt each match left a distinct impression on who was important while not making anyone look like a nobody.
The bad stuff was production. Too many camera cuts, too many missed spots. Commentary was usually solid, but had some bad moments. I'm hoping that they learn from this and the Jacksonville show is better and then the Chicago show is even better.
Individual match thoughts in the spoiler
Spoiler: show
AOC picked up on the Cody-Brandi story and retweeted it with comment. That should give AEW a huge amount of exposure.

A politics crossover for pro wrestling that's actually good press? Wild.
So, the person who was being hyped to wrestle Juice Robinson in those video packages was revealed. RIP Juice.
