NRE The Wrestlverse's YouTube videos serve as bonus episodes, covering three matches at AEW's Double or Nothing '23!AEW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCHMJF(c) vs. Darby Allin vs. “Jungle Boy” Jack Perry vs. “The Spanish God” Sammy GuevaraQuite some time ago, four young men were labeled the Pillars of All Elite Wrestling: Maxwell Jacob Friedman, Darby Allin, “Jungle Boy” Jack Perry, and Sammy Guevara. They were the four young talents looked upon as the future of AEW, the pillars supporting the house's infrastructure, the future champions of the company who would carry it into a bright future.Darby Allin was the first of the quartet to capture a championship in AEW, the TNT Title, on November 7, 2020; to date, he stands as a 2-Time holder of that title. Sammy Guevara was the next to capture a title, also the TNT Championship, and since his first victory on September 29, 2021, he has captured it three times. “Jungle Boy” would be the third champion of the pillars, claiming the AEW World Tag Team Championship on January 5, 2022, but he's yet to become a singles champion, a fact Jack Perry stated he aims to change in 2023.The history feeds this match; the journey all four men have taken to get to this point feeds this match; they've all gone through a great deal, personally and professionally, but only one has captured the ultimate prize. In fact, one man, Sammy Guevara, has never even challenged for the AEW World Championship during his AEW career. Getting a title match this Sunday will be a first for “The Spanish God,” but it could be an even bigger first if he, Sammy, or Darby can be the one with their hand raised at DoN '23.This Sunday night, four of AEW's homegrown competitors, men who fans have watched grow up before their very eyes over the last four years, will step inside the ring to vie for the richest prize in professional wrestling.Can he do it? Can MJF prove he is the strongest pillar of the four, or will one of his foes rise to the top of the pack and show why they are the dominant one?ANARCHY IN THE ARENA IIThe Elite (Adam Page, Kenny Omega, Matt Jackson, & Nick Jackson) vs. The Blackpool Combat Club (Bryan Danielson, Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley, & Wheeler Yuta)If you were witness to last year's Anarchy In The Arena spectacle, be it in person or watching on pay-per-view, then you have some understanding of just what this match entails. Chaos reigns supreme, violence goes down everywhere, and there is blood, a cornucopia of blood. Last year there was even some gasoline when Eddie Kingston seemed hellbent on burning...well...even his teammates if that's what it took to get the job done. There are some differences from last year, though; at DOUBLE OR NOTHING 2022, The Blackpool Combat Club was still in its infancy, having only come together in the aftermath of REVOLUTION 2022 three months prior, and they were far more on the side of the angels than they are today.Today, after fifteen months of training, fighting, and bleeding together, The BCC is a well-oiled machine of violence and suffering. They are as elite a unit as any other in AEW, choosing to make The Elite their focus of attack in recent months. The Young Bucks, specifically Matt Jackson, have suffered at the hands of Claudio, Yuta, Danielson, and Moxley. Kenny Omega has suffered at their hands and at the hands of Don Callis, who he thought of as family. “Hangman” Adam Page has also suffered under their violent tendencies; Jon Moxley decides he liked his old eye patch look so much he would inflict it on Page the same way Jericho inflicted it upon him.But there was an unexpected side-effect of The BCC's relentless brutality, which had been hoped for many times over the last several years but always seemed just out of reach for one reason or another. Perhaps there was too much baggage, or perhaps the bridge had been obliterated with all parties standing on it, whichever of the myriad of reasons there are to choose from, the bottom line was that it seemed The Elite would never mend fences. Maybe The Bucks and Hanger could co-exist, but it didn't seem possible that Page and Omega could ever find that again.Until they did, until the day Hangman strode out onto the stage, stood next to Kenny when he did it, and Omega handed him a weapon to head into battle with The Blackpool Combat Club. That moment told the story; it offered hope, much like it broke a heart several years ago when Hangman went to hand Kenny one of their tag titles, and he wasn't standing there to accept it. And then, when Hangman stood in that ring, made the Anarchy In The Arena challenge, and declared himself, Kenny Omega, Matt Jackson, and Nick Jackson once more The Elite, it felt like their world was finally healing. The core of AEW, the foundation upon which it was constructed, the foundation that makes it possible for those Four Pillars to be built up, was finally whole once more and was ready for war!So that is what they will get tonight inside ...
