All Elite Wrestling has become the talk of the pro wrestling world. The brand new company spearheaded by Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks, is making waves on social media as it moves forward into 2019.
AEW Public Relations has issued a press release regarding a major event taking place on January 8.
THE ELITE ANNOUNCES “DOUBLE OR NOTHING” EVENT RALLY IN JACKSONVILLE ON THURSDAY, JANUARY 8 @ 5PM –
– New “All Elite Wrestling” Poised to Change Wrestling Landscape — JACKSONVILLE, FL, (January 3, 2019) – All Elite Wrestling, the new wrestling promotion headlined by members of The Elite, today announced plans for a special DOUBLE OR NOTHING event rally in Jacksonville, FL. The event, which is free and open to the public, will take place on Tuesday, Jan. 8, at 5pm ET outside TIAA Bank Field in Parking Lot J (near Gate 1, adjacent to the TV compound).
The rally is on the heels of the unveiling earlier this week of DOUBLE OR NOTHING, the inaugural event under the new All Elite Wrestling (AEW) banner. Keeping in true The Elite fashion, attendees can expect the unexpected as the rally will showcase the true spirit of wrestling entrepreneurialism and feature special guests, inside info and limited edition merchandise.

Brandi Rhodes is joined in AEW’s corporate structure by her husband Cody, who will serve as Executive Vice President. The same title will also be shared by The Young Bucks, while Jacksonville Jaguars Co-Owner Tony Khan will serve as the President of All Elite Wrestling.
It’s unknown how many pro wrestlers will be signed or how soon the company will get a TV deal. Chris Jericho and Jim Ross were rumored to be part of AEW’s creation and though that story did not prove to be true, it’s possible that one or both of them may get involved in the company at some point. But as of this writing, neither one has officially been announced by All Elite Wrestling.
