According to Dave Meltzer speaking this morning on Wrestling Observer Radio, Tentative numbers at present suggest Double or Nothing pulled over 200,000 buys - more than most WWE shows outside the Big Four, and four times as many as the take up for last September's All In.

AEW has seemingly already managed to pique the interest of a whole new, or perhaps returning audience. Meltzer also noted that the show was trending number two on Google last night, albeit with the caveat that this did not include the Raptors' basketball game. Still, trending #3 worldwide proves the product absolutely isn't niche.

Having more buys then nearly all of WWE shows says alot about AEW already, as if Double or Nothing last night didnt say enough.

Yeah, even with the price, there is interest. 200k buys, if it is what they got, is very impressive for a starting wrestling show at a very high price.

That's fucking huge, way more than I expected.

Hopefully they can keep this momentum going for the next PPV in July.
