The 6th AEW Double or Nothing returns to Las Vegas once more.
Airing live from the MGM Grand, AEW Double or Nothing will see the return of the Anarchy in the Arena match. Following the attacks on Kenny Omega and Tony Khan, Omega announced that Team AEW and Team Elite would battle it out in the brutal match where anything goes.
A major debut will also be taking place on the show as Mercedes Mone will be in action for the first time since signing with the company back in March. Looking to win gold in her first match, Mone will challenge TBS Champion Willow Nightingale for the title at Double or Nothing.
Predictions For AEW Double Or Nothing 2024 Are As Follows:
Willow Nightingale (c) vs. Mercedes Mone – Singles Match For The TBS Championship
This is Mercedes Mone’s debut match since her injury back in 2023, which was caused by Nightingale in New Japan. Although Nightingale has just become champion, Mone is winning the title to get storyline retribution for what happened last year. Additionally, with Mone being one of the top signings, Tony Khan will be looking to present Mone as one of the faces of the company and appear with the title for media appearances for the foreseeable future.
Winner: Mercedes Mone
“Timeless” Toni Storm vs. Serena Deeb – Singles Match For The AEW Women’s Championship
Once again Storm will likely defend the title in a similar fashion to her previous matches with an assist from those at ringside. Until Jamie Hayter returns or Mariah May finally challenges for the championship, Storm is under no threat of losing the title for the foreseeable future.
Winner: “Timeless” Toni Storm
Roderick Strong (c) vs. Will Ospreay – Singles Match For The International Championship
Having been undefeated since he arrived in AEW, this will be where Ospreay likely suffers his first loss. Ospreay’s first championship win looks to be the World Championship at All In later in the year. Assistance from the Undisputed Kingdom will play into the finish as Ospreay does not have any allies to neutralise the interference.
Winner: Roderick Strong
Swerve Strickland (c) vs. Christian Cage – Singles Match For The AEW World Championship
With this being Strickland’s first defence on pay-per-view, it appears very unlikely that he will be losing the championship here. Cage loses nothing with a loss here and will still be a despised heel after the feud. With the odds stacked against the champion with The Patriarchy playing a factor and with Strickland having no more allies, Strickland will overcome the adversity of the group to continue his reign.
Winner: Swerve Strickland
Adam Copeland (c) vs. Malakai Black – Barbed Wire Steel Cage Match For The TNT Championship
Having overcome Buddy Matthews and Brody King, Adam Copeland is now faced with the leader of the House of Black and inside a steel cage wrapped in barbed wire. With the title changes limited on this show and The House of Black in need of a win, Black could walk out as the new champion as Copeland begins his eventual darker turn that began with the bloodbath on the go-home Dynamite.
Winner: Malakai Black
Orange Cassidy vs. Trent Beretta
Trent Beretta has stood tall over Chuck Taylor and now looks to take down the leader of The Best Friends. Although Beretta won the parking lot brawl on Rampage it’s unlikely that he will win the match against Cassidy on the pay-per-view as Cassidy is once again in need of a big win.
Winner: Orange Cassidy
Jon Moxley vs. Konosuke Takeshita – IWGP World Heavyweight Championship Eliminator Match
The title is not on the line here as Moxley is next set to defend the championship at NJPW Dominion in June against Evil. Although it would be nice to see Takeshita pick up a major win and get a future title shot, the rumour mill appears to indicate that Tetsuya Naito will be challenging Moxley for the title at Forbidden Door. Additionally, with Moxley needing to look strong for his upcoming defences, it’s extremely unlikely he will be losing this one.
Winner: Jon Moxley
The Young Bucks, Jack Perry and Kazuchika Okada vs. FTR, Bryan Danielson and Darby Allin – Anarchy In The Arena Match
Although Darby Allin recently made his shock return to AEW and was announced as the replacement for Eddie Kingston, it still isn’t known what condition Allin is in heading into the match as he recently suffered a broken foot, got hit by a bus and hit his head shortly before returning. Still ruling over the company and likely to continue doing so until either Omega or Tony Khan come back, The Elite are winning this one and the feud will continue, possibly until All In. Additionally, with Danielson and Allin standing tall on the go-home show The Elite appear to be favourites for the victory.
Winners: The Elite
Chris Jericho (c) vs. Hook vs. Katsuyori Shibata – Triple Threat Match For The FTW Championship
With both Hook and Shibata looking to take the title away from Jericho, they will likely cancel each other out to allow Jericho to capitalise, as is the case with most triple threat matches where both challengers hate the champion. Additionally, the no disqualification element allows Big Bill to get involved and help Jericho pick up the victory.
Winner: Chris Jericho
Bullet Club Gold (c) vs. Death Triangle – Trios Match For The Unified Trios Championships
The trios division has really cooled off in recent months with a lot of teams either disbanding or pursuing other championships instead. With Bullet Club Gold still in the early stages of their title reign, it’s unlikely they will be dethroned here and will remain the champions until a substantial feud takes place at some point in the future.
Winners: Bullet Club Gold
AEW Double or Nothing takes place on Sunday, May 26th.
