It was already behind AEW Double or Nothing 2025y Bryan Alvarezbefore the microphones of the most recent edition of the Wrestling Observer Livehe wanted to make a note about the show.
«Yesterday, I spent all day talking with all kinds of people in AEW. I will say that with a single exception, because if I say 'everyone' then, you know … but in fact it was everyone. Each person told me, 'these shows are too long. We all know. They should end before midnight on the east coast. '
«All the people of the company I talked to, except Tony (Khan), because I didn't talk to him, because of course, he doesn't think they are too long, all people said, 'are very long. It is his thing. We cannot prevent it. We can't do anything. ' The shows are too long. Everyone knows except Tony and a little handful of AEW's crazy people who would see the shows if they last nine hours».

Not all extensive fighting per se They are bright, but there is more patience with this aspect of wrestling than with the shows together, because logically, no combat today has the duration of a show and for the self -clusive nature that many possess; Extrapolable situation to the world of music, when we talk about the songs included in a non -conceptual LP.
In these days, such theme has been put again on the table following the celebration of AEW Double Or Nothing 2025, as is often the case every time the elite house dresses in PPV. Four and a half hours (not counting the “Buy-In”) where first, a couple of points looked expendable and programmable for some episode of Dynamite o Collisionbut ended up exceeding expectations and contributing heterogeneity to the poster. However, they were a total of nine meetings, reasonable figure.
AEW knows what his audience is, and Your audience is usually tanned in long eventslike those that usually present NJPW; Clear reference for the elite, where in return, the rhythm of the evening does not decline, with hardly any prolonged lapses between combat and combat. In the eyes of some, accustomed to the style of WWE, without a doubt this way of presenting wrestling will seem overwhelming, but such followers are not the target of AEW. And after all, while the evening becomes enjoyable, its duration matters little.
See, we are facing a very particular perception of Alvarez, who would say disguise subjectivity of objectivity, because at the same time, PWInsider reports that After talking with numerous talents linked to AEW during the last 48 hours, Double Or Nothing 2025 was considered one of the best functions in the history of the promoter.
