Yep this seems to be the card. Statlander is almost ready to go though so we may have her facing Jade.

This will be Triple J's fourth shot at the gold this year, which again highlights the lack of strong heel teams in the tag division. They need to put together some heel teams who are credible enough to challenge and maybe win the tag belts. FTR themselves are better heels IMO, but it wouldn't make sense to turn them right now. Maybe a frustration angle after they lose the belts.

Perhaps after this, they could run back the All Out 2022 angle of Lethal bringing in the MCMG and having them face FTR this time 2v2 instead of 3v3. Two of the best tag teams of the last 20 years.

This card is still unappetizing with two title matches announced. They have to run the Elite vs. BCC in Blood & Guts on this show I think rather than the usual TV special. That's AEW's hottest angle by a mile at the moment and Mox vs. Kenny was a nice appetizer.

I definitely want to see MCMG v FTR in a 2 v 2 match. If AEW stops jobbing out the heel tag teams so much, we could have a really good tag division. Butcher and The Blade are legit good and should be utilized much better than they are. 2.0 are great heels as well but I dont believe have ever won a match on Dynamite. Rush and Vance should be a threat. Christian and Luchasaurus can be a tag team. Josh Woods and Tony Neese are actually good wrestlers but have been just treated as jobbers. Gates of Agony should be dominating their opponents. AEW doesnt need to make new heel teams, they need to use the ones they have better.

Are Hanger and Kenny are coming together anytime soon though? Doesn't feel like it.

They could run Kenny VS Bryan in a big singles match with Kenny believing Danielson is colluding with Callis.

And also set up Takeshita/Young Bucks VS Mox/Claudio/Yuta, only for Takeshita to be found "taken out" backstage on the go home Dynamite. Brandon is announced as their new partner but he shows up at DoN with Hanger to be the Bucks partner.
Pretty sweet poster here.

I agree, Blood and Guts on the PPV instantly elevates it to a must see show. I wish TK would announce these things faster.

Matt Hardy being kicked by Jungle Boy 🤔

Could this possibly indicate that Matt Hardy is going to replace MJF in the 4 Pillars Match at DoN? 🤔

I mean it's a little late at this stage of the game for a 2 ring set up isn't it? As "samey" as it would feel to last year's BCC vs. JAS, I think we're getting Anarchy in the Arena 1st and then Blood & Guts later in the Summer.
Coming out of Rampage, it seems like we may getting one of two matches at DoN :

Ethan Page and The Gunns VS Hardy Party

Or

The Gunns VS The Hardy Boyz.

The 6 man was agreed to but no date was set. Could happen on Dynamite or Rampage before the PPV or they could save it for the PPV and keep the Gunns VS Hardys for a short televised program after the PPV.
They need to add some fire to this.

YUK!!

What an awful match that will be!

Ye not a good card at all and I think attendance and especially buyrate will prove this.

Please just stick darby, sammy and jungleboy in the midcard where they belong. They arent and never will be main eventers. PERIOD.

With the new media rights coming, Collision, Punk's return, Forbidden Door, and All In coming, Double or Nothing at this point feels like the red headed stepchild, filler PPV before everything. Only having 2 matches officially announced less than 2 weeks before the PPV doesn't help matters either. The show I'm sure will deliver as most AEW PPVs do, but the lack of hype going into this show is understandable.

Latest numbers. Numbers stalled out hard in the last month or two.
TK is taking forever to announce a card that we already know what will look like.

BCC vs Elite
Adam Cole vs Jericho
Wardlow vs Christian
Outcasts vs Originals
Swerve vs Lee
Jay White vs Starks
House of Black vs Acclaimed
Hardyz vs The Firm

Just book Blood and Guts and announce the rest of the card so people know what they're buying tickets for. I think there are a lot of people who need another push with only 2 lackluster matches announced a week and a half before the show.

My exact thoughts. DON is usually seen as one of the bigger PPV's of the year but with everything lined up this summer its kind of been forgotten about.
