Over Budget Battle Royale returning for AEW Double or Nothing
One of the match types from All In is returning for All Elite Wrestling’s first show.
Episode four of AEW’s “Road to Double or Nothing” series was uploaded today. It was announced that the Over Budget Battle Royale is returning for Double or Nothing, with Sonny Kiss, United Kingdom wrestler Kip Sabian, and Brandon Cutler being spotlighted as three of the entrants for the match.
Cody Rhodes mentioned that they have a “really great incentive” for the battle royal winner but said he can’t speak about that now.
Kiss made his first appearance for AEW at this month’s ticket announcement party. Cutler is returning to the Over Budget Battle Royale after having been an entrant in last year’s match.
The first Over Budget Battle Royale aired on the “Zero Hour” portion of All In. Flip Gordon, who wasn’t announced for the match in advance, entered dressed as Chico El Luchador and eliminated Bully Ray to win. Gordon received an ROH World Championship shot against Jay Lethal on the All In main card as a stipulation of winning the battle royal.
Double or Nothing is taking place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday, May 25.
