Adam Copeland and Christian Cage are the new AEW World Tag Team Champions after a brutal opening match at Double or Nothing.
AEW held the pay-per-view at Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, New York, with FTR defending the titles against Copeland and Christian in an I Quit match.
The stakes were heavy before the bell even rang. FTR entered as champions, while Copeland and Christian risked losing their ability to team again if they failed to win.
The match quickly turned into a violent fight. Chairs, ladders, tables, and tools were brought into play as both teams pushed the stipulation as far as possible.
Stokely Hathaway also got involved, giving FTR a chance to take control during the chaos.
Things escalated when the ring itself was pulled apart. The match continued around the exposed structure, making the scene feel more like a fight than a traditional tag team title bout.
Beth Copeland later appeared and became part of the finish. She brought Spike, the nail-covered board tied to Copeland’s most dangerous matches, and handed it over as the final threat against Dax Harwood.
With no clear way out, Harwood finally said he quit. That gave Copeland and Christian the win and ended FTR’s reign as AEW World Tag Team Champions.
The victory gave Copeland and Christian a major championship moment together, while Double or Nothing opened with one of AEW’s wildest tag team title matches in recent memory.
