All Elite Wrestling “Double Or Nothing” Results (5/28/23) (Updated)

AEW runs their second quarterly PPV of the year, Double Or Nothing today, back in Las Vegas for the casino-themed event. The build on TV hasn’t been the most impressive and the card seems rather underwhelming, even for the main event featuring the so-called Four Pillars of AEW (not including the “female pillar” Britt Baker) in a 4-way match for MJF’s AEW World Championship with the leading angle being a potential laying-down original plan when MJF tried to pay off original challenger Sammy Guevara, then it soon became a 4-way with Darby Allin & Jungle Boy added. Elsewhere, every AEW title is on the line with maybe the biggest question being will Taya Valkyrie end Jade Cargill’s unbeaten streak in a straight-up match? Also featured is Anarchy In The Arena as The Elite & Blackpool Combat Club will fight all over the venue, Chris Jericho vs. Adam Cole in an Unsanctioned Match and much more.

Today’s event will be held at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, NV and can be watched LIVE in the US on PPV via cable/satellite providers, Bleacher Report, at select participating movie theaters and Dave & Buster’s restaurants. Elsewhere it will be available on YouTube in Canada and select countries and FITE elsewhere. There will be a FREE 1 hour pre-show on YouTube. Presumably the post-event press conference will stream free on YouTube after the event, which including the pre-show should run 4-5 hours.

Today’s current lineup:
Pre-show:
The Hardys & Hook vs. Gunn Club & Ethan Page

PPV:
AEW Trios Champions House Of Black vs. TBA (possibly The Acclaimed & Billy Gunn) for the titles
Adam Cole vs. Chris Jericho in an Unsanctioned Match (doesn’t count towards records, title shots, etc.). Sabu will second Cole
AEW TBS Champion Jade Cargill vs. Taya Valkyrie for the title
AEW Tag Team Champions FTR vs. Jeff Jarrett & Jay Lethal for the titles
AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy vs. 20 others in a Blackjack Battle Royal for the title
AEW TNT Champion Wardlow vs. Christian Cage in a Ladder Match for the title
AEW Women’s World Champion Jamie Hayter vs. Toni Storm for the title
The Elite vs. Blackpool Combat Club in Anarchy In The Arena

Impact Wrestling “Under Siege” Results (5/26/23)

Impact Wrestling runs their live monthly major event, Under Siege, tonight. The full card currently consists of 10 matches headlined by Steve Maclin defending the Impact World Championship against PCO in what will now be a No DQ match. This plays off recent weeks of Impact when Maclin thought he injured PCO and Champagne Singh bought his way into an easy out for the champ, but PCO IS NOT HUMAN and showed up last night so the match remains so. Other title matches include a rematch between Deonna Purrazzo & Jordynne Grace for the Impact Knockouts Championship and it’s all or nothing for Grace-if she loses, she can’t get another chance at the title as long as Purrazzo is champion. Also on the line are the X Division and Tag Team Championships and there is a 6-way to determine the next challenger for the Impact World Championship in 2 weeks.

Today’s event will be held at Western Fair District Agriplex in London, Ontario, Canada and can be watched LIVE on Impact+ with a monthly or annual subscription ($7.99/month or $71.99/year), YouTube with an Ultimate Insider subscription ($4.99/month), and as a PPV on FITE ($9.99). If you buy the PPV on FITE you also get unlimited on demand replays (included with the other services). There is also a FREE pre-show on all the services beginning 30 minutes before the event. Due to work schedule conflicts I will be joining the pre-show in progress and watching from the beginning so at least initially I may be about 10 minutes behind live and catching up as I go. Including the pre-show the event should run the standard PPV/live window of about 3 1/2 hours.

Tonight’s current lineup:
Pre-show:
Impact Knockouts Tag Team Champions The Coven (Taylor Wilde & KiLynn King) vs. Death Dollz (Jessicka & Courtney Rush) in a NON-TITLE match
Impact Digital Media Champion Joe Hendry vs. Dirty Dango for the title

Main Event: Impact World Champion Steve Maclin vs. PCO in a No DQ Match for the title
Result: Impact World Champion Steve Maclin beat PCO to retain the title. That means next up is Alex Shelley. Afterwards, Maclin with microphone. He immediately demands Scott D’Amore live up to his word and come out to put the title belt around Maclin’s waist. D’Amore comes out. He obliges and straps the title belt on Maclin and offers a handshake, which Maclin refuses. We hear camera picking up Maclin telling D’Amore whatever happens, he’s still his boss. During this time, Bully Ray sneaks into the ring and chokes out D’Amore with a strap. Camera catches Ray telling Maclin “Get The Table”. Bully produces a can of lighter fluid as Rehwoldt leaves commentary and hits the ring. Bully sprays lighter fluid all over Rehwoldt and lays him out. PCO then returns to the ring. Bully shoves PCO and it’s on. PCO shoves Bully back but Maclin lays out PCO with the title belt. Outside the ring the beatdown is on as Motor City Machine Guns hit the ring but get sent packing quickly.Bully prepares the flaming table as Maclin teases putting D’Amore through it. Table lit and…POWERBOMB THROUGH THE TABLE! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! Bully taunts D’Amore, saying he will never get rid of Bully, ever, he’s here forever and he’s taking Impact down. Bully raises Maclin’s hand to end the show.

End Show. Live post-show coming up shortly on Impact+ & YouTube.

Final thoughts: As usual it was a solid live event although a couple of finishes felt like letdowns and the very end was a bit of overkill. Still worth the money as the matches ranged from good to outstanding.

Overall show grade: B+. Take out the couple finishes I didn’t like and it was A-.

The next TV tapings are tomorrow which will cover the fallout and the next 2 weeks of Impact to get them to Against All Odds.
