3) AEW Revolution 2020

AEW Revolution 2020 was the final major event before the pandemic. The Chicago crowd was pumped after a wonderful buildup to this pay-per-view. The main event saw Jon Moxley defeat Chris Jericho to win the AEW World Championship in the first title change for the top prize.

The show featured the best match of 2020 with Kenny Omega and Hangman Page defeating the Young Bucks to retain the AEW World Tag Team Titles in a phenomenal encounter. It had amazing storytelling, high spots galore, and a pace that elicited a molten hot response from the fans.

Other standout bouts saw Darby Allin beat Sammy Guevara, MJF claw his way past his former mentor Cody Rhodes, and PAC defeat Orange Cassidy in a fun clash of styles. The latter is viewed by many fans as one of the most underrated matches in company history. This was the best major event of 2020.


2) AEW Double Or Nothing 2019

To say AEW set the tone for the company with their first pay-per-view would be an understatement. Double Or Nothing 2019 was not just the first major show, it was AEW's debut to the wrestling world. They put together an unforgettable event.

The main event saw Chris Jericho avenge his loss to Kenny Omega from NJPW Wrestle Kingdom 12 by debuting his Judas Effect finisher. The post-match saw Jon Moxley's epic debut. This proved to be a shot heard around the world with Moxley having left a big-money deal in WWE to come to a new game in town.

Cody Rhodes put on an all-time classic against his older brother Dustin Rhodes. This was an ode to old-school wrestling with blood, a grueling struggle, and superb storytelling. Post-match with Dustin hugging Cody is still one of the most emotional moments in wrestling history.

Another great match saw the Young Bucks defeat the Lucha Brothers to retain the AAA World Tag Team Titles in a fabulous bout. Other standout contests saw SCU beat Strong Hearts in a sublime six-man opener, Britt Baker win the Women's Fatal Four Way, and Riho, Hikaru Shida, and Ryo Mizunami win a fun Joshi six-woman tag.
