PPV REVIEW: AEW Double or Nothing 2022 (5-29-2022)

I’m in a very cautious budgeting period of my normally reckless, freestyle way of life but I really wanted to watch this pay-per-view program live, so I went the crowdsourcing route via Ko-fi. It worked! And I actually did use the money to buy the show instead of sneaking away with it and stealing a pirate stream, which I do know how to do, despite everyone on the internet assuming you don’t know how if you suggest you’re willing to pay for something.

Also, I note nobody asked for any match reviews or anything, but I’d have a feeling of some type shame or the like if I didn’t do anything to even kinda feel like I’d earned this great payday, so I’m going to dust off the ol’ PPV-reviewing gloves and do a proper PPV review for the first time since probably, like, 2014.

This is a match review blog by design, but also it is a stupid fucking blog intermittently given attention by an aging idiot, so this will just exist. Who knows? Maybe more of this will happen. I do actually believe that there is value in how matches seem in the context of their entire show, but also in how matches seem in a vacuum. So in other words I have no opinion about reviewing wrestling other than most people should stop it. Not me, though.

Anyway, let’s go, motherfuckers.

Ethan Page vs Matt Tremont (WHAT, 6-17-2018)

WHAT V, Providence, RI

This is a request via Ko-fi. I chose this one because I like Tremont and I think Page is someone who is really good at having solid matches with weird opponents.

Ethan Page vs Pierre Carl Ouellet (BLP, 1-14-2018)

BLP We’re Not the Mounties, Crown Point, IN

This is the match that put PCO back on the map at age 50, a lil’ ol’ show in northwest Indiana that led to PCO being booked against WALTER, and now in demand as an attraction.

Rickey Shane Page vs Ethan Page (CZW, 4-7-2018)

CZW Welcome to the Combat Zone, New Orleans, LA

RSP’s CZW title on the line in this matchup against another Page. No relations as far as I understand.
