Opinion: The Stadium Stampede match was fun but it took too long for the action to get to Daily’s Place in my opinion. The live crowd was adding so much to this show and there was a lull during the first portion of Stadium Stampede as they battled in TIAA Bank Field. There were still several fun moments and the energy really picked up when they arrived in Daily’s Place. Overall, Double or Nothing was a very entertaining show. The low point was Rhodes vs. Ogogo but every other match delivered and the four hour show flew by.
