AEW Double or Nothing Defies Expectations With Strong PPV Performance; Anarchy In The Arena Match Reigns Supreme

This year's AEW Double or Nothing witnessed a captivating build-up as the promotion deviated from the norm by featuring the Anarchy in the Arena match as the main event instead of a World Heavyweight Title defense by MJF in a Fatal 4-way against Darby Allin, Sammy Guevara, and "Jungle Boy" Jack Perry. Leading up to the event, concerns arose that the relatively weaker lineup would adversely impact pay-per-view buys. However, this assumption has proven unfounded. ## In the most recent issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer disclosed that television PPV buys were nearly indistinguishable from those of Revolution, observed within a 100-buy margin nationwide and a 0.2 percent increase compared to the previous event. ## Streaming numbers, including platforms like Bleacher Report in the United States and FITE internationally, also demonstrated similar trends, aligning closely with Revolution's figures from this past February. However, when comparing to last year's Double or Nothing, headlined by the much-anticipated clash between CM Punk and Hangman Page for the World Title, television buys experienced a notable decline of 31.3 percent. ## Meltzer indicated that the current best estimate stands at a total of 130,000 to 135,000 buys, although it should be noted that these figures may slightly fluctuate as not all data has been fully compiled. AEW's upcoming pay-per-view, Forbidden Door 2, scheduled for June 25 and featuring NJPW, presents an exciting prospect for fans eagerly awaiting the promotion's next venture into collaborative events. ## To stay updated with all the latest combat sports news, add Sacnilk.com to your Google News feeds and follow us on Twitter.

The Undertaker Bestows Awe-Inspiring Acclaim On Roman Reigns: 'Arguably One Of The Greatest Runs Ever'

The Undertaker, a revered icon in professional wrestling, has once again bestowed high praise upon the formidable Roman Reigns. These two luminaries have graced the squared circle together on multiple occasions, both as allies and rivals. ## In a momentous clash, Reigns emerged victorious over The Undertaker in the climactic main event of WrestleMania 33, held in Orlando, Florida, back in 2017. Two years later, their paths intertwined once more as they joined forces, unleashing their collective might upon Shane McMahon and Drew McIntyre at the illustrious WWE Extreme Rules pay-per-view extravaganza in Philadelphia, PA. ## During an enlightening exchange with The Independent, The Undertaker, known for his discerning judgment, expressed his profound belief that Reigns is currently traversing one of the most extraordinary periods of dominance ever witnessed in the annals of this captivating sport. ## “He’s doing a phenomenal job. His character, his talent, and everything has grown exponentially through this run. It’s arguably one of the greatest runs ever. I like it because it’s such an old-school move, to have the title that long. He’s got to be in the conversation. But do you put him in the same boat as Stone Cold Steve Austin or Hulk Hogan? I don’t know. Everything’s so subjective when it comes to that. Reigns has the claim to fame now. He’s the man. I mean, it’s not even close, really. He’s had the title for a thousand days. Business is incredible. He picks his own schedule. He’s got a claim, he’s got an argument. I’m really proud of him for how he’s come. It really has been impressive.” ## To stay updated with all the latest combat sports news, add Sacnilk.com to your Google News feeds and follow us on Twitter.
