Wish the timing was just a bit better, if it was just the finish and some of the big spots it�s an easy MOTY, but as it is I agree. HM

I wish it was a little less sloppy but it was a good time overall

HM: Anthony Ogogo vs Cody Rhodes & America, AEW Double or Nothing, 30/05

Ogogo is surprisingly very good, much more even than I'd anticipated and less overbooked

HM: Hikaru Shida (C) vs. Dr. Britt Baker DMD for the AEW Women's Championship - AEW Double or Nothing 5/30

Was a little underwhelming at first but got better and better and the final few minutes were insanely good, full of false finishes, counters, and one hell of a fantastic ending.

I agree with what you�re saying, but am going to give it a MOTYC nom. It cleared the bar for me based on how good the build and those last five minutes were.
