A recent report revealed that AEW Double or Nothing 2025 could be going head-to-head with a major WWE show. The major show will reportedly take place after the next edition of Saturday Night's Main Event.
AEW has been seemingly avoiding a clash with the WWE PLEs by announcing their pay-per-view schedule later than before. However, it seems like Tony Khan and Triple H's promotions will be going head-to-head in May, if the dirt sheets are to be believed.
Speaking on the Wrestlevotes Radio on Backstage Pass, Wrestlevotes reported that the next Saturday Night's Main Event will take place on May 24 in Tampa, Florida, and the event will be followed by the NXT Battleground 2025 PLE on May 25. Interestingly, AEW Double or Nothing 2025 has already been announced to take place on May 25 this year.
