AEW Double or Nothing 2025 Results – Welcome to WrestlingAttitude’s live coverage of AEW Double or Nothing pay-per-view, live from the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona.
Zero Hour pre-show
– Lexy Nair is backstage and welcomes Ricochet, who said Nair is smarter than Renee Paquette & Tony Schiavone combined, which isn’t saying much. Ricochet explained rule #1 of the Stretcher Match, placing Briscoe on the stretcher and wheel him into the ambulance. Rule #2 is there are no rules, expect for rule #1. He did his cackle and walked away.
Megan Bayne & Penelope Ford vs. Anna Jay & Harley Cameron
After the bell sounds, Bayne and Cameron kick things off for their respective teams. Bayne and Ford build up to a double-team spot where they yell “Bow down!” and shove the face of their opponent into the ass of their partner, as the partner lays stomach-first on the mat shaking her ass.
Bayne tags in Ford, who settles in a comfortable offensive lead, taking it to Jay, who eventually lands a big dropkick, buying herself enough time to rush over and make the tag to Cameron. Cameron goes to work on Ford. After a few more minutes of back-and-forth action, Cameron hits her name-less finisher for the win.
Winners: Anna Jay & Harley Cameron
– Backstage, The Sons of Texas duo, ROH World Tag-Team Champions Dustin Rhodes and Sammy Guevara, are interviewed live. “The Natural” does most of the talking, and mentions waking up today and seeing a storm coming. He says the storm is one that is not good. He tells The Hurt Syndicate they like to hurt people, well try your best tonight, because there’s nothing they can do to him that hasn’t already been done.
– As the panelists continue talking about some of the action scheduled for tonight’s show, they all seem to get quiet and look scared at the same time, seeing something off-camera. That something walks into the camera shot, and reveals himself to be “The Murderhawk Monster” Lance Archer. Archer cuts a very normal-style promo, like a regular guy as opposed to a crazy person, which isn’t doing his gimmick any favors. They talk about the Don Callis Family vs. The Paragon Trios bout scheduled for tonight, with Josh Alexander, Kyle Fletcher & Konosuke Takeshita battling Adam Cole, Kyle O’Reilly and Roderick Strong.
Trent Beretta, Rocky Romero, Lio Rush & Action Andretti vs. AR Fox, Bandido, Komander & Hologram
We get the bell to start this one off. As soon as it does, all eight men collide and start brawling. Bodies immediately start clearing out of the ring, and it’s the four heels remaining. They single out Bandido and all go to work on him. Just 19 minutes remaining until the PPV portion of tonight’s show gets underway.
Things keep a pretty good pace throughout, until Komander gets in there, and then it’s as fast as humanly possible. Komander hits a crazy double-high spot and then all four members of his team hit a crazy four-post massacre spot. Action Andretti ends up getting badly busted open near the end. Bandido finishes things off.
Winners: AR Fox, Bandido, Komander & Hologram
AEW Double or Nothing 2025 Live Results
The cold open video package airs to get the main PPV show officially off-and-running. We settle back inside the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, AZ., where fireworks and pyro erupts. Mercedes Mone’s theme hits and out comes “The CEO.” The triple-champ makes her way to the ring for the opener.
Owen Hart Foundation Women’s Tournament Finals
Mercedes Mone vs. Jamie Hayter
After she settles in the ring, the entrance tune for her opponent hits and out comes Jamie Hayter. She has a ton of energy as she makes her way to the ring. The bell sounds and we’re officially off-and-running with this one. A loud dueling “Jamie Hayter!” / “C-E-O!” chant breaks out as they get after it early on.
A loud “F**k her up, Jamie, f**k her up!” chant spreads throughout the building as Mone settles into an early offensive lead, focusing her attack on one of the legs of Hayter. Mercedes fights back, sending Hayter to the corner again until the ref breaks it up with a count.
Hayter responds with a boot on Moné, sending her to the corner for some strikes and a boot to get a two count. Mercedes turns things around as she sends Jamie to the corner, lining her up for a prawn hold and a nearfall of her own. Roll up gets the same result, before Hayter breaks out of a single leg crab attempt.
Both women looking for the upper hand on a leg submission, going back and forth to send the other to the mat before Hayter hits a few stomps to cinch in a single leg crab of her own on the TBS Champion. Mercedes crawls to the ropes, finally managing to break the hold as she sends Hayter into the ropes, where she sets the former Women’s World Champion up for a Meteora that sends Jamie from the apron to the floor.
She brings Hayter to her feet, just to send Jamie into the barricade for more damage. Back into the ring they go, as Mercedes looks for another submission hold on her opponent. She pulls together the arm and leg of Hayter, who gets Moné on her shoulders for a nearfall that forces a break. Moné fights back to her feet, dropping Hayter with a side slam and a nearfall before grabbing Jamie into a chin-lock.
Hayter tries to break out but is hit with a Backstabber by Moné, who gets a straightjacket lock in the process…but Hayter gets to her feet, sending Moné to the corner! This doesn’t last long as Mercedes drops her to the mat, going up top for a Meteora for a two count before Jamie gets a nearfall of her own. Hayter gets back up, sending Moné to the corner.
Once in the corner, however, the TBS Champion drops Hayter onto the turnbuckle, allowing her to cover for a two count. She follows that up with a Back-Stabber for a close two-count. She looks for the Mone-Maker, but Hayter counters with a vicious lariat. Loud dueling chants break out for both women from the Glendale crowd.
The two fight to the floor, where there is a slip and a botched spot, leading to Taz mentioning on commentary how this is supposed to be a fight, and sometimes a fight doesn’t look pretty. He says this is something Hayter is fully aware of. Mone locks in her submission on Hayter, but Hayter hangs on and eventually escapes.
Mone dodged Hayter-ade three times, wanted a Tombstone, Hayter floated over and hit one of her own for two, but Mone somehow got a shoulder up by less than half an inch. Hayter wound up for a home run Hayter-ade, but Mone spun out and spiked Hayter with a DDT into a cradle for a flash pin. Mone immediately sprinted up the ramp to the trophy and Owen Hart title, as Hayter was left dejected.
Winner: Mercedes Mone, win the Women’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournament
– Commentary brings up Jim Ross and wish him well after his recent cancer diagnosis and surgery. Excalibur puts over JR working and helping him as a commentator over the past six years, as Schiavone & Taz bring up JR being a mentor to both. They all want him back at the commentary table soon.
FTR vs. Daniel Garcia & Nigel McGuinness
Garcia scrapped with Wheeler in a fast-opening sequence, leaving Garcia to do his dance and send Wheeler scrambling to his partner. Harwood demanded McGuinness to tag and Garcia obliged. Harwood faked a clean break in the corner and instead just punched McGuinness square in the jaw before firing off chops (McGuinness’ chest is already beat red). Thrust chops to the throat by McGuinness, who switched to uppercuts until Wheeler tried to make the save and suffered the same fate. Double arm wringers from Garcia & McGuinness, who scramble for dueling submissions, but FTR bail outside with Hathaway.
McGuinness did his corner handstand into a punt and clubbing blow combo on Wheeler for two. After one successful corner charge, Harwood saved his partner, leaving McGuiness to crash and burn outside. Harwood ate a stiff back elbow, but Wheeler saved his partner from a Tower of London and violently sent McGuinness repeatedly into the commentary table. Wheeler trash talked Tony Schiavone, as Hathaway screamed that he caused this. McGuinness tried his comeback lariat, but Wheeler cut him off and delivered a Tower of London off the apron. McGuinness remained isolated until he finally was able to hit the comeback lariat into the double down.
Garcia made the hot tag and ran wild, trapping both FTR in the corner the ten punches before sending Wheeler outside and flattening Harwood with a flying lariat. Nice series of reversals led to Garcia finally getting his back suplex for two, as the Dragon Tamer was applied, but Wheeler took Garcia’s head off with a lariat. McGuinness snapped Wheeler down by the shoulder, traded Tower of London attempts with Harwood before finally hitting it with a Garcia assist for two. Wheeler saved his partner from Shatter Machine, but both tried a comeback lariat, only to collide with each other. Dragon Tamer/London Dungeon applied, but Hathaway made enough of a save until Menard cut him off. McGuinness brought Wheeler over to Schiavone while in a submission, as Wheeler pleaded he was sorry to Mr. Schiavone. The match broke down around ringside, as Wheeler recovered and said his fingers were crossed and wasn’t sorry to Schiavone about sh*t.
Garcia hit two superplexes on Harwood back inside, but Wheeler saved his partner from the third and drove McGuinness off the apron. Harwood hit a twisting superplex on Garcia, as Wheeler flew off the top to complete the Power-Plex for two, as Taz pointed out Wheeler’s knee could be hurt after the landing. McGuinness tried Tower of London off the apron again, but FTR countered into Shatter Machine on the floor. Tony Schiavone left commentary to check on McGuinness, despite being trash talked by FTR & Hathaway. Garcia was left 2 on 1, battling back initially, only to be dropped by a Harwood piledriver for two. Spike Piledriver connected, but Garcia got his foot on the ropes. Sharpshooter applied, as Menard got up on the apron, but Wheeler dropped him with a right hand and Tope. Wheeler took out McGuinness again, as he & Hathaway kept yelling at Garcia to tap, but he eventually passed out.
Winners: FTR
Stretcher Match
Ricochet vs. Mark Briscoe
The bell sounds and we’re officially off-and-running with this one. The two brawl up the ramp immediately, using the stretcher as they end up at the ambulance on the stage. Ricochet escapes the grasp of Briscoe to return to the ring. The brawl is already intensifying, with the two throwing each other into anything that is nailed down.
From there, we see Ricochet escape the clutches of Briscoe to return to the ring. Mark gives chase and they continue to brawl, until Ricochet sets Briscoe up on the stretcher for a shooting star press off the apron, but Briscoe gets away, forcing Ricochet to land on the stretcher instead.
He gets the apron to land a Cactus Jack style elbow drop, sending Ricochet to the floor in the process. He continues the attack with a nod to the late Sabu and other hardcore legends, before Ricochet fights back. He puts away a table Briscoe tries to bring out, but takes a chair to the gut for his efforts.
Briscoe sends Ricochet into the barricade before bringing some more weapons into the ring, including a bucket of cleaning supplies, and he tries to clean up Ricochet’s act with some spray cleaner to the dome. Ricochet breaks free only to be walloped by the bucket to send him to the mat.
Ricochet leaves the ring as Briscoe sets up a chair for a dive shades of Sabu, but gets intercepted with a chair to the face instead. Ricochet takes control now as he catches Mark with some cleaning spray to the face, bringing Briscoe to the outside once more before slamming him against the gurney to bust the former ROH World Champion open.
Now we see Ricochet lay Briscoe onto the gurney, bringing it up the ramp toward the ambulance. As he goes to load him in and shut the door, Briscoe blocks the doors being shut with a crutch from the inside. He comes back out and the fight is back on.
A fire extinguisher is brought into the mix and sprayed by Briscoe. They brawl, with Briscoe a gross bloody mess at this point, back to ringside. A table is pulled out and set up. Briscoe lays out Ricochet and climbs to the top-rope. He leaps off and puts Ricochet through the table with a Froggy Bow.
The crowd went absolutely ballistic for that. We see some replays of it as well. Briscoe hoists Ricochet up over his shoulders and goes to carry him up to the ambulance. Ricochet comes back to life. The two fight back to ringside, where Ricochet stabs Briscoe with a pair of scissors.
They fight back to the ambulance, where Ricochet has another pair of scissors and he begins stabbing Briscoe some more. Ricochet puts Briscoe on the stretcher and shuts him in the ambulance. The doors shut, the lights begin blinking and the siren goes off. Ricochet gets the win.
Winner: Ricochet
AEW World Tag-Team Championship
The Hurt Syndicate (c) vs. The Sons Of Texas
MVP and MJF accompany them to the ring. MJF gets a big pop when his name is mentioned, as the crowd didn’t seem to expect him. He’s in his usual blue suit with his flannel-style scarf around his neck. The fans loudly chant “We hurt people! We hurt people!” as the defending champions settle in the ring.
Tony Schiavone rejoins commentary, informing us Nigel McGuinness believes he has some cracked ribs, but is in good spirits, despite the loss. A new graphic is shown for the Hurt Syndicate entrance, as MJF’s name is officially listed with the crew. The crowd is as loud as they’ve been all night chanting We Hurt People for the supposed heels, Lashley & Benjamin. Rhodes was almost immediately worked over in the corner and hit with rolling Benjamin German suplexes for two. Guevara tagged in, hitting his leap frog dropkick, but Benjamin recovered and also took him to Suplex City before tagging Lashley. Guevara dodged Spear into a pump knee, as he avoided a corner charge, only to run into a massive spinebuster. Guevara remained worked over, as MJF is jaw jacking with fans in the process. Lashley caught a Guevara float over from a powerslam position spinning into an impressive Dominator for two. Benjamin tagged in and tried a pop-up, but Guevara countered into a Cutter for a double down.
Rhodes made the hot tag and cleaned house with a snap powerslam and Code Red on Benjamin for two. Rhodes wanted his Unnatural Kick, as MJF took the ref, allowing Rhodes to hit the low kick to get a near fall. Lashley tumbled to the ring with Guevara, as Benjamin rolled through a Rhodes suplex attempt into an Ankle Lock. Guevara made the save with a snap hurricanrana, as Rhodes hit a Cross Rhodes while Guevara took out Lashley with a Shooting Star off the post to the floor. Lashley ultimately recovered and launched Guevara clear across the floor, as Benjamin hit a top rope throw on Rhodes for two.
MJF again got up on the apron and tried to hand Benjamin the Dynamite Diamond Ring, saying this was taking too long, but Lashley put a stop to it. MVP calmed MJF down, as Guevara tried a springboard Cutter on Lashley, who side-stepped and hit a huge Spear, but Rhodes made the save. MVP took the ref, as MJF tried to use the ring again on Rhodes, but Lashley stopped him once more, only to smile and Spear Rhodes through the barricade. MJF hugs Lashley, as Guevara wanted a dive, but just narrowly cut off by Benjamin, who hit the step-up knee in the corner and thrust kick for the win.
Winners: The Hurt Syndicate
AEW Continental Championship
Kazuchika Okada (c) vs. ‘Speedball’ Mike Bailey
Okada got pyro for his entrance and did his signature mind games clean break in the ropes to start. Bailey answered with a handspring into a snap hurricanrana, sending Okada to the floor, as he dodged a slingshot dive from Bailey, teased a DDT, but Bailey drove him into the steps. Bailey wound up for a home run kick, but Okada moved and Bailey kicked the steps. Okada thought he had time to recover, but Bailey had the kick pads on, rose into the Crane Kick position and booted Okada’s head off before following with a Triangle Moonsault. Back inside, rapid fire kicks were cut-off by an Okada dragon screw, as Okada followed with a flapjack and DDT on the floor, then another back in the ring for two.
Bailey tried chopping his way back into it, but a snapmare into a sprinting low dropkick sent Bailey to the floor. Baseball slide by Okada, who tried it again, but Bailey hopped up on the apron and hit a huge springboard moonsault. Okada rolled back into the ring right into a missile dropkick, as Bailey fired off stiff kicks and running Shooting Star for a near fall. Okada answered catching a charging Bailey in the corner with an Air Raid Crash on the knee and stalling top rope elbow that led to the Rainmaker Flip Off. Bailey nearly stole it off a roll-up, popped up and almost hit a thrust kick, but Okada did a Matrix into flipping Bailey off. Bailey lit up Okada with kicks, went to the top for a Shooting Star Press, but Okada got the knees up.
Dueling chants, as both trade forearms until Okada fired off a body shot. Bailey responded with a thrust kick, went for Time Adventure, Okada initially dodged, but Bailey threw a wild kick. Going up to the corner, Bailey wanted an Ultimate Weapon, but Okada dropkicked him off the ropes to the floor. Bailey avoided an apron Tombstone, swept the legs and hit his moonsault double knees. Back inside, Bailey hit a corner Time Adventure, but missed Ultimate Weapon, as Okada hit a shotgun dropkick. Bailey put on the brakes for an Okada dropkick and hit another double knee. Time Adventure attempted again, but Okada hit a dropkick in mid-air. Okada went for a Rainmaker, but Bailey finally hit Time Adventure, only for Okada to get his hand on the ropes, despite referee Rick Knox counting three, no one bought the count, as they all saw the rope break.
Bailey brought Okada up by the wrist and fired off kicks, but Okada answered with a series of lariats. Okada went for a Rainmaker, but Bailey wrapped him up into a straightjacket pin for a close near fall. Bailey went for Ultimate Weapon once again, but Okada managed to dropkick him in mid-air and hit a Rainmaker flush for an incredible finishing sequence.
Winner: Kazuchika Okada
AEW Women’s World Championship
‘Timeless’ Toni Storm (c) vs. Mina Shirakawa
The winner of this match will move on to defend the title against 2025 Owen Hart Cup women’s winner, Mercedes Mone, at AEW ALL IN: Texas on July 12, 2025 in Arlington, Texas. The bell sounds and the crowd immediately breaks out in loud dueling chants in support of the champ and challenger.
Storm pranced to the ring wearing a mini top hat, as Excalibur brings up this isn’t the first time these two have faced each other and questions if the sequel will be different than the original. Taz brings up Luther is wearing cowboy boots and he’s simply baffled and wasn’t sure why he noticed that. Another match with dueling chants to start, as Shirakawa quickly zoned on the leg that she targeted last Wednesday night. Storm wiggled out of a head scissors and did a dance, offering a hand to bring Shirakawa, who thrusted her way into a pin attempt, catching Storm off guard for two. Thrust chop to the throat by Storm, as Shirakawa responded with a leg lock, slapping Storm, who got the ropes. Thesz Press fired off by Storm, but Shirakawa quickly dropkicked out the leg. Shirakawa tried a Figure Four on the post, but Storm pulled her face first into the post.
Back in the ring, Storm worked over Shirakawa with a Fisherman’s Suplex for two before trying to shake out her injured leg. Shirakawa answered with a Tornado DDT off the ropes, snap dropkick, rolling elbow and dragon screw combo, delivering another between the ropes. Luther tended to Storm ringside, stepping in front of her, only for Shirakawa to boot him and fire off a forearm, also giving one to Storm. Shirakawa managed an impressive Tornillo off the back of Luther onto Storm before wiping out Luther with a dive off the top. The distraction allowed Storm to recover enough to hit a DDT on the floor, but Shirakawa got another dragon screw back in the ring. Figure Four finally applied, but Storm quickly rolled to the ropes. Storm threw a desperation headbutt, but Shirakawa fired off a backfist before both collapsed into the reset.
Both slugged it out to their feet, as Shirakawa kept kicking out the leg, until Storm countered into a snap back suplex into multiple release Germans. Storm wanted Sweet Cheek Music, but her leg gave out, as Shirakawa dropkicked it out into a rolling elbow, tried again, but Storm hit a Sky High. Storm wanted another out of the corner, but Shirakawa countered into a hurricanrana into an Inverted Figure Four. Storm got the ropes, as Shirakawa went up top and hit the Sling Blade for two. Glamorous Driver MINA connected, but Storm again kicked out. Storm kicked free of a Figure Four and hit Sweet Cheek Music, but couldn’t get Storm Zero. Shirakawa rolled through Sky High into the Figure Four yet again, this time deep, but got the ropes. Shirakawa went back to it, but Storm hooked a Big Package, they trade pin attempts until Storm gets up, hit a headbutt and quick Storm Zero to retain.
Post-match, Storm helped Shirakawa up and planted a smooch on her, as Taz said it’s Phoenix, sometimes friends kiss. Shirakawa thanked Storm before leaving and we get an official match graphic for Storm vs. Mercedes Mone at All In for the Women’s Title.
Winner: Timeless Toni Storm
Anarchy In The Arena
Swerve, Omega, Joe, Hobbs, Shibata & Willow vs. Moxley, Yuta, Claudio, Shafir & The Young Bucks
The goofy “Founding Fathers” theme continues playing as the battle begins. A four-way split screen showing us what’s going on.
Joe has taken Claudio outside the building as Shafir hits a big suplex on Nightingale, and eventually we focus on the ring where Omega, Shibata, and Strickland continue to beat up the Bucks and Yuta. Omega calls for the music to change, and we get “I’m So Excited” instead. Omega and even Swerve gets into it and the crowd roars.
Seconds later, however, Omega gets back on the microphone and says he’s feeling a different sound. He says he wants to hear some alternative 90s rock. “Play that sh*t!” he yells. From there, we hear the familiar sounds of an old-school ECW classic, “Let the Bodies hit the Floor” by Drowning Pool. The crowd goes insane and sings along with it. Omega even does karaoke with some lady in the crowd.
Back to the wild action taking place all over the place — literally. We see Mox going after Hobbs, while Joe and Claudio go at it some more. Yuta is laid out by Shibata as Joe and Castagnoli make their way toward ringside. The Drowning Pool song keeps replaying over-and-over-and-over again. They’ve either got to change it again or turn it off at this point. Went from awesome as hell when it first hit to overkill.
The camera cuts to show Mox getting his hands on a fork, as he digs into the forehead of Hobbs, while Yuta backs off from Shibata. Yuta stops Omega from a dive off the balcony. They continue to go at it as we see Hobbs coming over, throwing Yuta onto the rest of the competitors and some security nearby.
This is followed by a big dive from Omega as the music loops back around. We see Strickland and Mox go at it as they head to the ring, with Joe once again going after Claudio. Hobbs comes back to the ringside area but is intercepted by Mox, who sends him to the corner in the ring to jab him in the head with the fork once again.
Meanwhile, Swerve drops Nicholas on the chair with a backbreaker as we see Omega get his leg slammed against the ring post. Mox has set up a table against that corner but gets taken out with a spinebuster that sends the World Champion through the table instead. The Drowning Pool song replays yet again as the chaos begins picking up even more.
Kenny continues to go after Matthew while Swerve takes control, hitting a Swerve Stomp. We cut to outside the arena as we see Willow and Marina still going at it, with Shafir sent against a production truck before taking a bottle to the head by Nightingale, who then sends Marina onto a nearby table.
We see the ladies joined by Yuta and Shibata for just a second, before they head back into the backstage area. Shibata sends Wheeler into a trash bin as we get the split screen again, and he sends Yuta into the steel gate as we get one more look at everything on.
Back to Shibata, who wraps barbed wire around his leg for a nasty punt on Yuta. Back to ringside, and the Bucks hit a DDT on Swerve before mocking him then posing, only to take a trashcan to the head by Omega. Nicholas and Kenny go at it until Matthew intercepts with the trash-can.
Swerve comes in but takes a Destroyer on the stage…but recovers to hit a House Call instead. He leaps off the stage but gets intercepted by Claudio, who takes Swerve for a ride with a giant swing into a speaker, and that seems to bring the music to an abrupt end.
The chaos continues with Matthew diving onto Hobbs when he shows up. We see Marina and Willow make their way to ringside now, with Shafir taking control using the chain as Omega is back in the ring looking for a dive that gets intercepted by the Bucks. Shafir attaches Willow to the ring post by her ear, with Mox mocking her while the Bucks send Omega through a table.
Shibata gets set up for a TK Driver to the floor now, and Mox goes after Omega with a piece of table. Yuta lays into Hobbs with a chair as Shibata is brought into the ring for a beatdown by the Riders, with Mox hitting knee strikes to the head of The Wrestler. Joe is choked by Matthew on the outside as Nicholas and Yuta go after Hobbs.
Claudio brings a table for the Bucks to use on Hobbs as Yuta walks down with Claudio. Matthew sets Hobbs on the table, allowing Nicholas to connect with a senton bomb sending the Powerhouse to the stage. Back in the ring, the Riders continue to inflict pain on the likes of Omega and Shibata while Willow is stuck to the ring post.
Mox comes after Hobbs, who gets to his feet and fights back before the Bucks intervene. They slam a chair against him before setting up for an EVP Trigger, but Swerve has arrived on a forklift driven by Nana as the crowd goes wild. He helps Willow escape her ear-lock situation and the crowd comes unglued as we see high spot after high spot.
Nana has a key to help unlock Willow from the post as Shafir attacks Hobbs. Claudio hits him with a chair but to no avail, as Willow and Hobbs take out Shafir and Claudio. Matthew runs into the ring but gets trapped in a Coquina Clutch by Joe while Hobbs is put in a bulldog choke by Mox.
Matthew breaks the Coquina with a 450 as Swerve does the same to the choke from Mox. Nicholas has a staple gun that he uses on the back of Hobbs, but the Powerhouse is barely fazed and encourages to staple his forehead, which busts him open but doesn’t hurt him. Swerve takes the staple gun and uses it to his advantage before Claudio intervenes.
This doesn’t go well for him, but Nicholas goes for a low blow with no luck, before Shafir comes in to take Strickland down. She uses the staple gun on Swerve’s tongue, or at least tries to before Willow intervenes. She’s sent out before Kenny runs in, with Marina imploring Omega to “do it”, and does it Omega does, hitting a snap dragon suplex as the crowd erupts.
Now we see a double superkick from the Bucks lays Kenny out, and they hit Nana and Strickland and even the ref and Willow. They set her up for a TK Driver, but Swerve knocks Nicholas off the turnbuckle. This leads to Willow and Swerve hitting a TK Driver on Matthew and Willow makes the cover. Yuta breaks it up.
After that, Yuta goes after Swerve but is knocked out by Joe, who catches Mox with a uranagi. Claudio hops onto the apron with a chair, but is pulled down by someone in an orange hoodie. It’s HOOK. He hits Claudio with a golf club, but walks away from the ring leaving Joe confused.
Joe hits Mox with a Coquina Clutch as Omega and Hobbs keep the Bucks away, but Gabe Kidd shows up with the briefcase to break the hold. Omega comes in to go after Kidd, who hits a piledriver on Kenny before the Bucks look for an EVP Trigger on their former friend.
Yuta stops them, but only to put some thumbtacks in Kenny’s mouth for added damage. Claudio with a giant swing on Omega, into a dropkick by Wheeler. Mox runs in for a bulldog choke, and Kenny looks completely out of it, before Joe breaks the hold. He gets ganged up on by Kidd and the other Riders.
Kidd leaves the ring with Yuta and Claudio bringing Joe toward an ambulance. If you’re wondering what that ambulance is doing here, it turns out it’s because Mark Briscoe has returned to the arena after the stretcher match, and he gets the drop on the Riders. They lock the Riders in the ambulance and the Bucks are all alone.
Swerve puts on The Answer sneaker he recently debuted, covered in thumbtacks. He uses it to finish things off, giving his team the win in one of the wildest matches you’ll ever see. Assuming we call that a “match,” that is. Definitely lived up to the Anarchy in the Arena name.
Winners: Kenny Omega, Swerve Strickland, The Opps & Willow Nightingale
The Paragon vs. The Don Callis Family
Cole & Takeshita kicked things off for an equal back and forth, as O’Reilly & Alexander tagged in for much of the same before a diving knee off the second from Strong got a near fall. Alexander rushed Strong into his corner, as Fletcher tagged in, but quickly found himself lit up with Paragon kicks and fast tags. Strong was blindsided and picked apart by the Callis Family, as he was sent outside by Takeshita and swarmed by Fletcher & Alexander as Callis directed traffic, even getting in a cheap shot, selling his foot like crazy, thus having Taz hope he was seriously hurt. Strong tried to sprint to his corner, nearly got planted with a Blue Thunder Bomb, but broke free into a nice back breaker, but was cut-off by Alexander.
Cole made the hot tag and ran wild, pump kick to Alexander getting a near fall, as Archer took over Callis’ spot on commentary. O’Reilly flew off the apron onto Fletcher, as Ushigoroshi from Cole led to a combo of kicks and rolling elbow from O’Reilly into a cross-arm breaker, until both traded Ankle Locks. Inside cradle from O’Reilly got two, as both popped up, trade kicks into a double down. Cole made the tag, but found himself triple teamed in the corner, as an assisted corner powerbomb by Takeshita got a near fall, as Strong & O’Reilly made the save. Takeshita was taken out with a running O’Reilly dropkick off the apron, as Alexander ate a backbreaker on the barricade by Strong, as back inside, Paragon flattened Fletcher with a triple strike combo. The match really broke down, as O’Reilly saved Cole from a Fletcher brainbuster until Fletcher dodged a high kick, tried a powerbomb, but O’Reilly floated through into a Guillotine. This left O’Reilly as an open target, as Takeshita popped him with a hard right hand, leading to Fletcher powering into his brainbuster for the win.
Post-match, Archer & RPG Vice joined their crew by attacking Paragon and standing tall until out walks Brody King & Tomohiro Ishii until Hiroshi Tanahashi’s music hits and he joins the party. The fight is on and we get Holy Sh*t chants for Tanahashi, as Fletcher was last man standing, suffering a Sling Blade before Cole lowered The Boom.

Owen Hart Foundation Men’s Tournament Finals
Will Ospreay vs. Hangman Page
The bell sounds and this one gets officially off-and-running. The two soak up the intense crowd atmosphere. Kudos to the crowd for staying this fired up, what, 6 hours and change into the live show now? Especially with the exhausting Anarchy in the Arena match not so far back. Clearly Paragon and Don Callis Family was the bridge match for the crowd, but still. Impressive.
The two finally close in on each other and go face to face. They lock up and we’re off-and-running. Ospreay takes control, backing off to allow Page to get to his feet. Will acknowledges the crowd which riles them up even more, but Page remains calm and collected as they lock up again.
Page takes Ospreay down, but Will gets to a knee to get Page off him. This doesn’t pan out as the side headlock is cinched in, until Ospreay finally counters out. They go back to it, with Page taking control before Ospreay gets to his feet, only for Hangman to send him to the corner, grabbing Ospreay’s hair until the ref breaks it up.
Both guys go for quick pin-attempts, before exchanging strikes again on their feet. Hangman hits the ropes, only to miss a sliding lariat. Ospreay evades and quickly fires back with an elbow of his own. Page sends him down for a Buckshot Lariat attempt. Ospreay avoids it and tries countering with a Hidden Blade, but Page avoids it as well.
Page sends Ospreay to the corner for some chops. Ospreay battles back and connects with a picture-perfect hurricanrana. He then follows up with a body slam and a standing sky-twister press for another close two-count. Hangman fights back and sends Ospreay to the corner, but then runs into an elbow that sees himself end up on the floor.
Ospreay tries to follow-up with a dive, but Hangman catches him and launches him overhead with a fall-away slam that sends him soaring, before ultimately crashing and burning on the stage. Back in the ring, Page lifts Ospreay up for a fall away slam into the corner, covering him for a two count.
Hangman brings Ospreay back up to lay in some strikes in the corner, and the impact forces Ospreay to land on the canvas as Page looks out to the crowd. He turns his attention back to Ospreay as he brings him back up, but Will fights back with some strikes. Hangman sends him down for some boots to the back of the dome.
Ospreay starts “Hulk’ing up” after getting irritated by the kicks. The two begin intensely trading shots back-and-forth. Ospreay sends Page to the outside. Page stands up just in time for Ospreay to drop him with a Sasuke Special for a big crowd pop.
Back in the ring, Ospreay tries to follow-up, but Hangman starts fighting back again. Ospreay hits a Blue Thunder Bomb for another close two-count. We hear dueling “Let’s go Ospreay” and “Cowboy sh*t!” chants after a top-rope moonsault from Hangman fails to secure him a three-count.
Hangman locks in a Boston crab, until Ospreay finally gets to the ropes to break it and free himself. Both men get a second rush of energy as they trade strikes, until Ospreay catches the Hangman with a running Spanish Fly for a two-count.
Ospreay slowly gets up, climbing the turnbuckle before Page intercepts him. Ospreay slips away to tie Hangman in the turnbuckle, where he proceeds to fire kicks at him. The crowd starts to come to life again in the background as Ospreay looks for a Styles Clash.
Hangman kicks his way free before he can hit it. Hangman connects with Angel’s Wings for a close two-count of his own. Hangman points to the corner. He does a second Christopher Daniels tribute or taunt, depending on how you want to look at it, in a row, as he goes for the Best Moonsault Ever.
Instead, he is countered by Ospreay with a Hidden Blade. Hangman eats it and rolls to the floor so Ospreay can’t capitalize with a quick cover. The two fight on the ring apron outside of the ring ropes. Ospreay gets Hangman in position for a Styles Clash from there. He leaps to the floor and hits it.
On the replays, we see Hangman smacked his head straight into the unforgiving ground, forehead-first. Ospreay, meanwhile, immediately clutched his knee upon landing. The two are slow to recover. Ospreay gets back into the ring. Hangman is still down and out, not moving, as the ref counts to nine.
At the count of nine, Hangman pops up and dives into the ring, but dives right into an Os-Cutter from a prepared Ospreay, who immediately follows-up with a cover, only to get a close two-count. Ospreay then follows that up with a Hidden Blade and another quick cover, to again only get a close two.
Ospreay starts to palm strike the piss out of a down and out Hangman in the ropes. The referee yells at Ospreay. Ospreay turns around as Hangman is getting up and he kicks him in the jaw, knocking him off the apron and sending him crashing onto the desk on the floor.
Ospreay gets on the commentary desk and brings Hangman up there with him. He hooks him for a Storm Breaker or a Tiger Driver ’97, or something. Before he can do it, however, Hangman tries to counter with a back body drop. Unfortunately, as soon as he goes to flip him over his back, the table breaks before anyone lands.
Ospreay almost collapsed on the tip-top of his head. Hangman picks Ospreay up and hits a Dead Eye on Ospreay to break what is left of the pile of rubble that used to be the commentary desk. Back in the ring, Ospreay fights back and hits Hidden Blade into a Storm Breaker. An immediate cover still only gets him a count of two.
Ospreay does a dramatic stop and point as Hangman is struggling, using the ring ropes to stand back up. He does the Kenny Omega gesture and runs and connects with a V-Trigger to the back of Hangman’s head. He hoists Hangman up on his shoulders and looks for a One Winged Angel.
Hangman counters and covers him, but Ospreay gets his foot on the ropes just in time. Two “fight forever!” chants on different sides of the arena break out at the same time. A loud “Both these guys!” chant follows. Hangman looks for Buckshot Lariat, but Ospreay counters and looks for Storm Breaker.
Hangman counters that and connects with a Buckshot Lariat. He immediately covers Ospreay and gets the 1-2-3. His music hits and the crowd explodes. Hangman Page wins the 2025 Owen Hart Foundation Men’s Tournament. With the win, Hangman Page will advance to challenge for the AEW World Championship at AEW ALL IN: Texas on July 12 at Global Life Field in Arlington, TX. A perfect setting for some “Cowboy Sh*t!”
Winner of the 2025 Owen Hart Foundation Men’s Tournament: Hangman Page
Post-match, referee Bryce put the Owen Hart Foundation title belt around Page’s waist as confetti rained and pyro went off as the graphic is official for All In, Jon Moxley vs. Hangman Adam Page for the AEW World Title. Page went up the ramp and stared at the Owen Hart Cup before walking back to the ring standing above a dejected Ospreay, who got to his feet. Page extended a handshake and Ospreay accepted, as Taz brought up even in defeat, you build a whole new level of respect for your opponent. Excalibur said it’s back to the drawing board for Ospreay to find his way to the AEW World Title as the show goes off the air with Page raising the Owen Title in the air before collapsing to his knees.
We go to credits.

AEW Double or Nothing 2025 Preview
AEW’s Double or Nothing 2025 is set to deliver a stacked nine-match main card featuring three title matches, two tournament finals, and the always-chaotic Anarchy in the Arena. The event will stream live tonight starting with the Zero Hour pre-show at 6:30 p.m. EST, followed by the main card at 8 p.m. EST, going head-to-head with WWE’s NXT Battleground.
One of the biggest developments heading into the pay-per-view is the reveal that Will Ospreay vs. “Hangman” Adam Page will main event the show, with the winner earning a shot at AEW World Champion Jon Moxley at All In Texas this July. Ospreay confirmed the match’s top billing during a face-to-face segment on “AEW Dynamite.”
Meanwhile, TBS Champion Mercedes Moné will take on Jamie Hayter, with the winner receiving a future AEW Women’s World Title opportunity against “Timeless” Toni Storm, who will be in action defending her title tonight against newly signed AEW star Mira Shirakawa. Shirakawa recently wrapped up her time in STARDOM and is now officially All Elite.
The night will also crown the 2025 Men’s and Women’s Owen Hart Foundation Tournament winners, with both victors earning title shots at AEW All In Texas. The tournament has become an annual tradition to honor the late Owen Hart’s legacy and continues to be a spotlight moment on AEW’s calendar.
While many expected the highly anticipated Anarchy in the Arena match to close the show, it will instead serve as a major attraction earlier in the night. This year’s match will be the first of its kind to include female competitors, with Willow Nightingale representing the babyface team and Marina Shafir competing for the opposing squad.
The babyface side features Swerve Strickland, Kenny Omega, Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs, Katsuyori Shibata, and Willow Nightingale. They’ll square off against Jon Moxley’s Death Riders, including Wheeler Yuta, Claudio Castagnoli, Marina Shafir, and the Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson).
AEW Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada will put his title on the line for the 12th time, facing “Speedball” Mike Bailey, who remains undefeated in AEW via pinfall.
In tag team title action, World Tag Team Champions Shelton Benjamin and Bobby Lashley of The Hurt Syndicate defend against the ROH World Tag Team Champions, Dustin Rhodes and Sammy Guevara, collectively known as The Sons of Texas. Though not scheduled to compete, MJF, the latest member of The Hurt Syndicate, is expected to appear either at ringside or behind the scenes.
Other matches include a Stretcher Match between Ricochet and Mark Briscoe, a tag bout featuring FTR vs. Daniel Garcia & Nigel McGuinness, and a six-man tag match pitting The Callis Family (Josh Alexander, Konosuke Takeshita & Kyle Fletcher) against Paragon’s TNT Champion Adam Cole, Kyle O’Reilly, and Roderick Strong—a match that was finalized on Thursday’s AEW Collision.
