Megan Bayne and Lena Kross vs. Zayda Steel and Vita Van in a 5-minute tag team title eliminator match

The Divine Dominion of Megan Bayne and Lena Kross have defeated every challenger that has come their way. Zayda Steel and Vita Van will be the latest, and if they can last at least five minutes with Bayne and Kross without losing, they will earn a future shot at the AEW Women’s Tag Team Championship. It’s hard to see that happening without outside interference.

Prediction: Bayne and Kross continue their stranglehold on the women’s tag team division.

“Big Boom” AJ, QT Marshall, Mark Briscoe, Orange Cassidy and Roderick Strong vs. Shane Taylor, Anthony Ogogo, Capt. Shawn Dean, Carlie Bravo and Lee Moriarty in a 10-man tag team match

It’s always fun with “Big Boom” AJ and his family coming to an AEW show and participating in a match. Double or Nothing’s Buy In time should be no different. Going up against Shane Taylor Promotions, it should be another interesting fight.

Prediction: “Big Boom” AJ, QT Marshall, Mark Briscoe, Orange Cassidy and Roderick Strong pick up the win.

Claudio Castagnoli, Daniel Garcia, Wheeler Yuta vs. Anthony Bowens, Hook and Katsuyori Shibata in a trios match

The Death Riders and The Opps have turned into a rivalry over the past few weeks due to the Death Riders’ involvement with Will Ospreay. Ahead of Ospreay’s match against Samoa Joe later in the night, Claudio Castagnoli, Daniel Garcia and Wheeler Yuta will take on Anthony Bowens, Hook and Katsuyori Shibata in a six-man match. This should be matched with Buy In.

Prediction: Death Riders win in a hard-hitting affair.

Kazuchika Okada (c) vs. Konosuke Takeshita for the AEW International Championship

Any time Kazuchika Okada or Konosuke Takeshita is on a pay-per-view card, it becomes must-see TV. But put them up against each other, it might be a show-stealer. Okada and Takeshita have reluctantly worked together as members of the Don Callis family. However, their animosity towards each other resulted in a match at Double or Nothing for the International Championship. It will be one to watch and it has the potential to be the match of the night or the match of the year.

Prediction: Konosuke Takeshita wins a wild one.

Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler (c) vs. Adam Copeland and Christian Cage in an I Quit match for the AEW World Tag Team Championship. If Cope and Cage lose, they must retire as a tag team

FTR knocked Adam Copeland Christian Cage out of the game for some time. When Copeland and Cage returned, they were out for revenge. The two tag teams negotiated a match for the AEW World Tag Team Championship at Double or Nothing. But Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler wanted the legendary duo to put their team on the line in an I Quit Match. If Copeland and Cage lose, they must retire as a team. This one is going to be bloody, to say the least.

Prediction: FTR retains the titles.

Chris Jericho, Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin, Kenny Omega, Jack Perry, Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson vs. Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, Toa Liona, Mark Davis, Andrade El Idolo, Clark Connors and David Finlay in a Stadium Stampede match

MVP, the Hurt Syndicate’s manager, told Pakinomist Digital that fans can expect “chaos and violence” at the Stadium Stampede match. It certainly looks like it will happen. Chris Jericho and Ricochet’s rivalry blossomed to include several others. As the competitors take over the Queens, it will be fun and interesting to see where these guys go to deal the most damage.

Prediction: Team Jericho wins in a wild match.

Thekla (c) vs. Hikaru Shida vs. Jamie Hayter vs. Kris Statlander for the AEW Women’s World Championship

A four-way dance for the AEW Women’s World Championship is expected to be particularly chaotic. The match features wrestlers who have been champions before. Thekla naturally enters the match as the reigning champion, but Jamie Hayter, Kris Statlander and Hikaru Shida have all held the belt at one point or another. It is likely to be a great match. But the “poisonous spider” as the advantage of the triangle of madness in her corner, while Statlander and Shida may not be on the same page.

Prediction: Thekla retain.

The Owen Hart Foundation Tournament begins

There are three Owen Hart tournament matches set for Double or Nothing – two on the men’s side and one on the women’s side. Samoa Joe takes on Will Ospreay, Bandido battles Swerve Strickland, and Athena battles Mina Shirakawa.

Each match will have an underlying story. Joe and Ospreay disagree about Ospreay’s apparent uniformity with the Death Riders. Ospreay has called this fight a dream for him, but there will be something extra to fight for – personal pride.

Strickland has made it clear that he wanted to go after Bandido and followed him back to AEW, as shown in the vignettes that played earlier this month.

Athena, the Ring of Honor Women’s Champion, has dominated Ring of Honor but has yet to really get that signature win on the AEW side. Shirakawa looks to get back into the title picture with an Owen Cup victory without “Timeless” Toni Storm.

Predictions: Ospreay beats Joe, Strickland takes on Bandido and Shirakawa defeats Athena.

Jon Moxley (c) vs. Kyle O’Reilly for the AEW Continental Championship

Jon Moxley has been the AEW Continental Champion since defeating Okada in the Continental Classic finals at Worlds End in December. He has dispatched every opponent that has come his way, and no one has earned a shot at the title in more than a month. That changed on “Dynamite” when Kyle O’Reilly took him to a limited time draw. O’Reilly got the title and has the advantage over Moxley. He had Moxley play at Full Gear in November and his team won the Blood & Guts match at “Dynamite” days before that. What happens in this match is anyone’s guess.

Prediction: Moxley will retain the title, but it will be really close.

Darby Allin (c) vs. Maxwell Jacob Friedman for the AEW World Championship

The match everyone has their eyes on – Darby Allin vs. MJF in a hair-against title match. If MJF loses, he will be forced to shave his head. If Allin loses, MJF will join an exclusive club of three-time champions at the age of 30. There is a lot of animosity between the two wrestlers. Allin won the title over MJF and has made it clear that he is going into the fight to prove that he is not a fluke. MJF believes that Allin does not represent professional wrestling well enough for a champion. Will the ring be turned into a barbershop in Queens on Sunday night?

Prediction: MJF upsets Allin to win the AEW World Championship.
