Ups & Downs: AEW Double Or Nothing 2024 Review 

Why here's why

Don’t forget Darby hitting the coffin drop in tune with the music 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

That was your favorite wrestling Moment of the year 😂😂🤦🏽‍♂️Dude missed WrestleMania 40 lol

@@marvinesquibel2625 no I watched WM40 lol 90% of it wasn't for me.

@@marvinesquibel2625 and nothing on that show made me feel anything close to how I felt in this moment.

@@LHC2112 Yikes. I guess some people just really love that Indy lookin stuff huh more than an actually good produced wrestling show , Cody Rhodes finishing the story is the best thing to come out of ALL of professional wrestling in the last 10 years that little camera angle shot of danielson was the best thing you’ve seen this year wow where have the standards gone 😂😂sami Zayns entrance a couple weeks ago on Monday night raw in Montreal was even 10x better than that 😂

weird, as even excalibur on commentary hinted inspiration behind outfit

but not as Vince or NJPW

It's arguably a shot at him. Triple H needed Vince, probably more than anyone, to get where he is now. He banged his way to the top.

Yeh that's the point, he's making fun of Triple H.

Now that I see he's back, im gonna start watching aew again. Im sure im not part of a small portion thinking that

Needle will not be moved....

And keeps aew alive too

He's overrated, perfect fit for AEW.

@@dominikgose2609I’m in the same boat but the problem is when he’s off there’s nothing to watch til the PPV

It's hard for me to decide. I feel like there were two matches of the night. The one you're talking about, the Barbed Wire Steel Cage Match Adam Copeland VS Malachi black for the TNT championship. The second one was Anarchy in the Arena, in my opinion.

I enjoyed almost the full card the only match that felt forced was the triple threat with Jericho

@@johnlewandoski1645 I thought that was actually kind of alright. I admit I'm liking this Learning Tree gimmick, so that might be why. To me, the Trent/Orange match felt super forced because we've seen it 10000 times. Other than that, the card was awesome, even the pre-show matches

The IWGP eliminator was the only weak point of the card to me. That booking did not make any sense, as Simon has politely pointed out. All the other matches were of very high quality and good decisions overall.

Lmaooooo imagine thinking anything about AEW is watchable

You get diminishing returns. They can only stay entertaining for so long. It’s the main reason wrestlemania went two nights and arguably they’re still both far too long. 3 hours seems to be the sweet spot. I get what you’re saying but they could have cut one hour off this show and you wouldn’t feel any differently about how much you enjoyed it and what value for money it was.

@@jaybee4288 Maybe it's my age. I can't remember watching a complete AEW PPV in one sitting. I usually fall asleep and watch the rest the next day. I don't mind. It's not the length, I just think somethings like the Orange Cassidy match felt like filler material. We could have cut that.

@@jaybee4288 I’m Cool with the length tbh

Now that is not entirely true… Serena is a character that I would hate no matter who she was facing no matter what kind of match no matter what kind of backstory she looks like a heel she acts like a damn heel, if your character is called the professor, you’re a damn heel

So will Serena be a heel in her own right now, or just in relation to Toni?

Serena botched that match like 5 times. And Toni tried her best to salvage what she could. But man was that match a snooze fest. Lol

My question is how old is she? She looks like she’s 50 somethin

@@Sabbathbloodysabbath666 37. I think it's because she's incredibly skinny

Probably a NJPW call

NJPW makes the call on their belt

So down when you know who wins And Also down when the person you think will win, doesn't.

This match absolutely killed any consideration of Takeshita as a legit contender now or ever. So ridiculously disappointing.

It was for a IWGP shot im sure a DDT guy wasn't getting a shot at the Title

​@@scottmcfarlane7524he's not a ddt guy anymore so I'm not sure why that would matter. And it's just for a title shot he should've won

I def thought Takeshita was going to win. Thought that was the point of hurting mox’s arm the night before to protect him and give them a way out. I’m 99.9% sure he did mention the tease from Buddy and Brody joining Copeland, but could be wrong.

At 18:07 mark. Had to double check to make sure I wasn’t going crazy!

Hey thanks I must have spaced out there

WWE did that for at least the first half of his WrestleMania entrance last year...

@@tomseville2345 Nobody Remembers That But WWE Diehards

​@@00drpepper58...so basically 90 percent of the wrestling fandom which also including AEW fanatics?

@@cordero6960 No. WWE Diehards Arent 90% of the Wrestling Fandom. They’re 90% of WWE Fandom. The Wrestling Fandom is Comprised of Ppl Who Watch AEW CMLL NJPW DDT GCW DPW ROH STARDOM AAA Etc

@@00drpepper58 I disagree with your first comment because I remembered it but your second comment is absolute FACTS

And still lost lol

Apart from the main event, and the fact that orange Cassidy wrestled. Also the ftw match was awful.

@@davidhandley9007 please do not try and insert your opinions on my opinion. I loved every minute of the PPV from buy in to finish.

@@lihletyalimpi5273 RU-vid is a public forum, where people give their opinions and comments, and in turn those opinions and comments are subject to opinions and comments. It's called a debate, and for people to air their views..there is nothing wrong with people having opinions, of we all liked the same things, the world would be a poorer place for it..

@@davidhandley9007 and a troll is a mythical woodland creature. What is your point?

@@lihletyalimpi5273 have you heard of difference of opinion? Troll is just a word people use when they come across someone who has a different opinion, rather than opening their mind to debate, they just call someone a troll and shut any debate down. It's ok for people to disagree, it's how things evolve .

This company just can't help itself when it comes to referencing more successful stuff from another company.

It is a cool throwback nothing more...It is not copying cause it doesn't really add anything to the return , the succes would have been the same but this way they were able to give a shotout to one of the best return ever IN WRESTLING , see this is a company that cares about wrestling itself , they acknowledge other companies if they do something right unlike WWE​@@rjgoodman4056

@@rjgoodman4056it wasn’t a reference he was pay homage to his favorite wrestler oat….

@esrealanderson332 paying homage is a form of referencing.

@@rjgoodman4056 Why does it hurt you? That return is still one of the best ever in wrestling , MJF and AEW just referenced that outfit , the vibe and the succes of this return would have been the same even if MJF wore his usual clothes, they did it out of paying respect to that return , idk why it bothers you so much , it didn't give anything to this MJF return other than giving some actual wrestling fan a nice nostalgia (by actual I mean people who knows that Triple H return entrance) , AEW paying tribute to one of the best wrestling moment and you come with this stupid AEW vs WWE shit again instead of being happy that they are doing a favor for wrestling in general

Look at it from a perspective of someone like me where I dont follow all the indie wrestling companies and my only taste of indie wrestling is AEW how am I supposed to kno that, it’s a good nod yes but on a PPV or PLE whatever you call it where more eyes are on the program those little nods don’t work

You’re a mook😒

Oh shut up ya mook😒

Screw AEW😒

AEW sucks😒

@@anthonylucero6650 AEW haters 😄😁😆😅

They put in such great ppv

No it was B+, Dynasty and Revolution were A++++ this one was not as good

You're crazy if you thought this was better than Wrestlemania 40. Even Backlash this year was better than this.

@@rjgoodman4056 then I guess I'm crazy because Wrestlemania 40 sucked in my opinion it was two nights of a whole pay-per-view and I liked a few matches and I only cared about even less but with this pay-per-view I cared and liked every single match the benefits of having free will I can enjoy what I want the world will be a boring place if everybody liked the same thing

​​@@jacobburnette7639 Exactly 💯 Don't let that RJ idiot sway your opinion, he's an anti-AEW troll anyway who always talks sh** about them while creaming his pants over every single thing WWE does

You’re clearly high so I’ll let this one go 😂

@@Sabbathbloodysabbath666 such a childish response so I'll let this one go 😂

But he's so old now he looks like a vampire Ric Flair.

@@SeasideDetective2yeah. It’s called aging man.

Vampires don’t age though

Then goes to neighbor's house and throws out their tv out the window

exactly

@@davidcoombsbestmegadethalb9780 I watched KOFTR and the DON highlights and the amount of time wwe takes to recap the story is too long and it makes watching raw Smackdown pointless

Lol! All are AEW marks. How long was KOTR? And DON? How boring the crowd was at DON? And, Most importantly AEW was a long PPV with long boring matches.

@@rahulmcintyre2553 hahahahahahahahha

​@@rahulmcintyre2553the crowd at DoN was great. Who cares if the ppv was long as long as it's good

HHH

Just like there has never been a title change at a battle of the belts. no point in having those shows.

@@hermanswords8629 you know what, I haven't noticed that until now lol

@@frankf.875 Since AEW has so many champions not featured in ppv strylines they should build title fueds with battle of the belts as the blow off with some title changes. Instead the bloat a show full of one off matches that are forgotten in two weeks.

@@hermanswords8629 so true
