AEW Double or Nothing Will Still Take Place Next Month, But Not in Las Vegas

AEW announced today that their next PPV, Double or Nothing, will still air on PPV on Saturday, May 23, but it will no longer be held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

AEW said that additional details “will be revealed in the weeks ahead with features of the event itself ultimately being determined by the latest guidance of national and global health authorities.”

They also announced that the Double or Nothing PPV in 2021 will take place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Saturday, May 29, 2021.

The AEW Dynamite on Wednesday, May 27 in Las Vegas has also been canceled.

With Florida now declaring nationally televised sports & media events as “essential services,” AEW is technically free to run empty arena shows again at Daily’s Place in Jacksonville, though that’s not the confirmed location for the PPV yet.
