Production

Background

Double or Nothing is considered All Elite Wrestling's (AEW) marquee event, having first been held in 2019. It was the promotion's first pay-per-view produced. While AEW had plans to host 2020's event at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on the Las Vegas Strip, which was where the original show emanated, the venue canceled the event due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] In response, AEW announced that the 2020 event would still proceed as planned, which occurred at Daily's Place and the TIAA Bank Field stadium in Jacksonville, Florida. The announcement also confirmed that a third Double or Nothing event would occur at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on May 29, 2021 and, in addition to offering refunds, tickets purchased for 2020's show would be valid for 2021.[1]

Storylines

Double or Nothing will feature professional wrestling matches that involve different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.[3] Storylines are produced on The Young Bucks' YouTube series Being The Elite and AEW's weekly shows Dynamite and Dark.

gollark: Yep!
gollark: No, the ads could just say "allow access from any domain".
gollark: LocalStorage and IndexedDB would be replaced with WebSQL or something, which is just an interface to SQLite.
gollark: It'll send your cookies with it and stuff, so if you could see the response it would be a horrible security problem.
gollark: Yes. The situation now is that browsers will happily send requests from one origin to another, but only if it's a GET or POST request, not allow custom headers with it, and, critically, do bizarre insane stuff to avoid letting code see the *response*.
