Ranking AEW's pay-per-views in 2020

#3 AEW Double or Nothing

It was a great AEW World Championship match at AEW Double or Nothing.

AEW Double or Nothing was the first AEW pay-per-view of the Pandemic Era. It is hard to say if there was a terrible match on the show, but it certainly had a few solid, entertaining matches. The Stadium Stampede Match will be the most remembered from the show for better or worse.

The Casino Ladder match was an interesting albeit long opening to Double or Nothing. If you want to see Darby Allin take some stupid bumps and Brian Cage make an impressive debut, then this is the match for you.

MJF vs. Jungle Boy followed it. This is one of the best and underrated gems of 2020. You can tell both young competitors are the future of AEW.

The middle part of the show was a mixed bag. Cody defeated Lance Archer in a decent TNT Championship match, but Archer hasn’t really regained his momentum after the loss.

Kris Statlander defeated Penelope Ford in a brief, average match. And the less said about the “comedy” match between Shawn Spears and Dustin Rhodes, the better.

The semi-main events worked well. Hikaru Shida defeated Nyla Rose in a brutal No Disqualification match. It was the true start of a strong year for Shida.

The AEW World Championship match was possibly Jon Moxley’s best in 2020. It was a fast-paced and physical battle between Moxley and the late, great Brodie Lee. It is a shame we will never get to see more matches between the two again.

The main event was the Stadium Stampede Match. It was likely the best cinematic match of AEW's year. Your opinion on that match depends on your love of comedy.

The match had a lot of comedy. We had many football jokes, a bar fight, and a questionably timed “drowning” of Matt Hardy. Kenny Omega doing a One-Winged Angel on Sammy Guevara from about 20 feet up was an incredible finish.

It was a purely fun main event when we needed some good humor to end a solid pay-per-view.
