unfortunately this show tomorrow has been at least somewhat gutted as there have been multiple cancellations by talent who will instead be helping out at Collison here tomorrow and I think at least some of them will be working the ROH tapings tomorrow after Collison.
I can't blame the talent who cancelled as AEW is an opportunity you can not pass up, there were two women in particular originally booked for this show who I wanted to talk to about being in the game but I have been told at least one of those 2 will no longer be there and I do not expect the other to be there either.
I expect Xia Brookside (who I met and whose card I got autographed last month here in Las Vegas at TNA) to be one of the previously announced women talent to be still wrestling on this show as I think her TNA contract prohibits AEW from booking her for tomorrow's ROH tapings. This might be a quick/few matches show tomorrow.

I really dislike this new Double or Nothing Weekend schedule.
Last year, Double or Nothing was still a month before Collision started on Saturdays so the past two years here the Saturdays have been non-stop Indie shows at an event called Full Tilt. Now, not only is Full Tilt not happening as companies do not want to run against Collision or even after Collision as the post-Collision ROH tapings can take forever, AEW for its ROH tapings poaches the talent in town for the few Indies shows such as this one scheduled to take place before Collision.

I think we are still quite lucky with All In at Wembley, because they don't intend to run Collision here in the UK, so we still get a weekend full of indie shows around the main event

this show again got gutted as it was the same day as Collision even though most of the women who got pulled by AEW did not appear at either the Collison or ROH tapings tonight, of the original lineup only Mazzerati appearead (and Mazzerati actually hugged me in the casino after the show tonight, I was not the only one she hugged, but she initiated the hug, I am really happy for her as it is great to see an FSW talent make such an appearance tonight.)
some of the newly added women on this show as replacements included Indie Wrestling Hall of Famer Cheerleader Melissa (who lives here in Las Vegas but who has also not wrestled regularly for 5 years) and Nicole Savoy who I heard was making this show her final match (but it is wrestling so I would not be surprised to see her wrestle again)

Sounds like AEW pulled a page out of the WWE playbook. Sign them even if we do not use them because at least the competition cannot.

Exactly. A six-person match would have got six of them a little exposure. Not to mention AEW would have got their money's worth. Unless they pay one level just to be available and another if they use the talent.
