I was there that night and it was the first time I felt like I was there for a major moment. Gave me absolute chills.

One of the greatest experiences of my life being there. Cheers A-E-Dub.

This moment is why I became excited to be a wrestling fan. I really didn’t follow much of the buildup. I lurked on this forum for awhile and I knew of things like All In had happened. But all I was doing was casually keeping up with what WWE was doing and really wasn’t super into it. But I checked out Double or Nothing, and I’ve been hooked on AEW ever since. Afterwards, I absorbed everything about the Elite, watched every single BTE, watched All in, every build up video, Road To..:everything and rewatched Double or Nothing again and by the time Fyter Fest 2019 came up, I was pretty much caught up and hooked.
There has been almost nothing exciting in US mainstream wrestling in the past 20 or so years that hasn’t been extinguished by bad booking and horrible decisions that made me lose more and more interest. Double or Nothing itself and Moxley showing up, was a phenomenal moment that made me believe that it was leading to great things, and it has.

I love the like double pop he got, like there's a "ooohhh" then a "ARHDJDNSJSJFJ" when the camera turns to him. I still rewatch this when I need a pick me up.

I just love how there was no music, just Mox coming through the crowd. Damn that crowd gave me chills EDIT: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xFaEkZaWkAFigured I'd throw in the amazing promo after that show. Damn Mox showed right there how he could be the ace of a show.

I think that two years later, we can safely say that this was 100% the right decision for Moxley. Imagine if he'd stuck it out in the WWE.
