He's not actually fat and didn't need the secret stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TV-14 ratings gives AEW a chance to be different than WWE which is the only way they can survive and possibly thrive. I got WWE & AEW fanboys going after me after every comment I make. I just want some competition to WWE so it will improve their product. It might not happen though..AEW might be a flop right out of the gate. We shall see. Yeah. I know who you are now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They ain't new here. All I'll say is I hope they don't play poker because their tells are very obvious. And if by chance I'm wrong then I'm sorry, but I think those chances are low. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I am not sure if this is new information but Meltzer made a comment in passing on yesterday's (????) radio show - that Double or Nothing will be a 5 hour show (Or at least it is blocked for 5 hours) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flair’s Shadow Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 What number do you think Tony Khan would be happy with when it comes to PPV buys for DON? 70,000 to 80,000 buys? What do you all think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Five hours is approaching WHEN THE FUCK WILL IT END territory even for good shows. I think it's because I went to all three days of BOLA 2015. It took a lot out of me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I don't think there's any way it's 5 hours. I guess it's possible the air the pre-show stuff in the first hour, the PPV stuff in the 2 to 3 hours after that, and then the extra time is just there for overrun. The other possibility is that the show is only 2 to 3 hours and as soon as it ends they start re-running the show in whatever remains for their 5 hour block.

matt925 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I think that means 1 hour for the pre show and 4 hours blocked for the ppv. I’m fully in the less is more crowd for length of wrestling shows. 4 hours plus a preshow should be your biggest show of the year, although in this case it sort of is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 And here's the Hangman vs Pac match: Pretty good shit between them and it makes me bummed it isn't happening this weekend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just finished watching the match. Great stuff. Hangman Page will become a mega superstar in AEW. He’s got money written all over him. I don’t think there is real bad heat between PAC and AEW after watching this match. I think it’s a case of bad timing between the 2 parties which should have been sorted before 1 week until DON. Dam good wrestling between PAC & Page. This match is another reminder to me why AEW made the correct decision to go to 20 x 20 ring. The ring was too small in size for the match. Put these two guys in a 20 x 20 ring with great production value I believe AEW will provide and we get great pro wrestling. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I'm about to watch the PAC/Page match right now. I am thinking of have a little watch party for Double or Nothing a couple of my friends are interested in it. I'm getting pretty hyped the closer we get.

NikoBaltimore Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 My mom is torn on whether or not to do Memorial Day stuff on either a Saturday or Sunday (scheduling conflicts on the actual day for some of the invited people) I without hesitation said Sunday was good so I can still see the show. But if it ends up being Saturday then I guess no viewing party for me. Luckily I did email B/R Live support and they confirmed that I'll have access to the live show and the replay. So even if I have to watch it Sunday I'll be in good shape so long as I don't check out here or Twitter first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Ok so the match was good and I don't think you could do a non-finish at Double or Nothing. I would say Page vs. mystery opponent is better than a DQ on the first AEW PPV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyLaw Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I mean, if they’re really trying to honor Dusty, why wouldn’t they do a DQ finish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Yeah but if they wanted to honor Dusty they'd have to contradict Kenny Omega at every turn to make Cody look just that much better as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nice Guy Eddie Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I just got done watching Page vs. Pac and really enjoyed it, finish aside. It was cool to hear how over Page was with a UK crowd. That could have been the MOTN in an ideal situation at Double or Nothing with five more minutes for the finish. I hope we get a rematch after Pac loses the Open the Dream Gate title.
