AEW is gearing up for a major New York return, and this time the company may be taking one of its signature pay-per-views to a venue it’s never used before.

According to Andrew Zarian of Mat Men, AEW is planning to bring Double or Nothing to Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens this spring. While AEW has not officially confirmed the date or location, the report immediately sparked attention given the venue’s history—and lack of wrestling history. Zarian broke the news on social media, writing:

“AEW brings one of its landmark PPV events to New York City this Spring. Double or Nothing is scheduled for Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, NYC!”

If the plan holds, it would mark the first-ever wrestling event held at Louis Armstrong Stadium. The venue is best known for hosting tennis events and seats roughly 14,000 fans in its standard configuration. While wrestling has never run the building, it did host a Ring Magazine–sanctioned boxing event in July 2025, opening the door for other combat sports.

AEW is no stranger to New York, having successfully run Arthur Ashe Stadium for its annual Grand Slam events in the past. However, moving Double or Nothing to Queens would represent a notable shift for a pay-per-view traditionally associated with Las Vegas and the West Coast.

Last year’s Double or Nothing took place at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona, continuing AEW’s trend of rotating locations for the event.

As of now, AEW has not announced any official details regarding Double or Nothing’s date, card, or venue, but Ringside News will continue tracking updates as they emerge.

What do you think about AEW potentially running Double or Nothing at Louis Armstrong Stadium for the first time? Is Queens the right move for one of AEW’s biggest shows, or should the event stay closer to its traditional roots? Drop your thoughts below and let us know.
