#2 Moxley's shocking debut
This was bound to be here. There's no getting around it! Although AEW's first show Double Or Nothing did incredibly well on its own by the time it almost came to an end, the climax was what sealed the deal for the promotion! The bloody brawl between the Rhodes brothers, the fast-paced mid-card matches, and the main event turned it into a great debut show, but Jon Moxley's debut was what took the wrestling world by storm.

It was the exact dose of excitement AEW needed at the time. The debut led to an interview on Talk is Jericho, which became the most listened edition of the podcast. Moxley went on to win the IWGP United States Title, which only helped in creating intrigue among the fans. The way the arena erupted in shock when Moxley made his debut made it clear that this would result in more fans flocking in for future shows.
