The World Tag Team Championships and International Title changed hands during Sunday’s AEW Double or Nothing pay-per-view.
Adam Copeland and Christian Cage defeated FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler), to become the new AEW World Tag Team Champions.
Below is an excerpt from Alex Kahrs’ AEW Double or Nothing recap of how the title change went down.
Dax, meanwhile, sees his opportunity as he slides back into the ring and sets Cope’s head on a chair. He grabs another chair and tells Cope if he wants to see his two daughters tomorrow he’d better say “I Quit”…only for Beth to low blow him from behind! This allows Cage to do the same, and Cope hits a piledriver on Harwood. Cage locks in a Sharpshooter on Harwood, who refuses to quit.
Cope locks in a crossface, but Dax still won’t give up. Cope calls for Beth to grab something from near the ring, and she pulls out the spiked board (Spike) and gives it to Cope. Dax has finally had enough, and he shouts “I QUIT” to bring this match to an end!
Konosuke Takeshita defeated Kazuchika Okada, to become the new AEW International Champion. In addition, Kyle Fletcher returned from injury post-match, but only to then attack Takeshita staying aligned with the Don Callis Family.
Below is an excerpt from Alex Kahrs’ AEW Double or Nothing recap of how it all went down.
Power Drive Knee gets countered into a modified Emerald Flowsion by Okada, and a nearfall leads to Takeshita fighting back…before being laid out with a Rainmaker lariat by the champ! Okada holds onto the wrist, bringing the Alpha back to his feet and to the ropes for a dropkick. He goes for another Rainmaker lariat, but the challenger counters with one of his own! He fires up as he lands a Power Drive Knee and goes for the cover…but the fighting spirit kicks in as Okada kicks out at one!
Takeshita fends him off one more time, firing back with shots before landing a Raging Fire for the win!
