Big Match Reportedly Scrapped From AEW’s ‘Double Or Nothing’ Event Due To Creative Differences

AEW’s ‘Double Or Nothing’ PPV event takes place next week. This will be taking place in Las Vegas.

One of the marquee matches of the event has reportedly been scrapped due to “creative differences”. That match is Adam ‘Hangman’ Page vs Pac (aka Neville).

Here is what Dave Meltzer wrote about the match being scrapped:

The official word from AEW is that there were creative differences regarding the match and Pac won’t be on Saturday’s show. With Pac’s regular matches in the U.K., it’s known that beacuse he takes his status as world champion with Dragon Gate seriously, he has not agreed to any losses since winning the Open the Dream Gate title and to protect that has done 30:00 draws with Zack Sabre Jr. and Will Ospreay. On the flip side, AEW wants to present a sports-like atmosphere and had their own direction for what they wanted.

The Pac vs. Page match will be released this week on the Internet by AEW with the idea that everyone can see the match, even if it had a DQ finish, for free, so fans are getting the hyped up match. Page agreed to fly to England and do the match to make up for the hyped match not happening on the PPV. Page will be wrestling against a new opponent, although the name probably won’t be announced before the PPV show. The DQ finish kept things open ended enough that Pac may be back with the promotion at some point to face Page, although there is no definitive time frame.
