Another trios match just got locked in for AEW Double or Nothing—and this one’s personal.

AEW has officially announced that The Paragon—Adam Cole, Kyle O’Reilly, and Roderick Strong—will face off against the Don Callis Family’s Kyle Fletcher, Konosuke Takeshita, and Josh Alexander at the May 26 pay-per-view.

The match came together on the May 22 edition of AEW Collision, where tensions boiled over all night. Kyle Fletcher beat Jay Lethal in singles action, but things escalated fast after the bell. Alexander and Takeshita stormed the ring and jumped Lethal, until The Paragon ran in to even the odds and clear the ring.

Later in the show, Paragon took on Zack Gibson and James Drake in tag team action and picked up the win. That’s when Adam Cole grabbed the mic and called out Don Callis directly: “The Don Callis Family needs to be taught a lesson.” He laid down the challenge for a trios bout at Double or Nothing.

Callis didn’t waste time. After Josh Alexander defeated AR Fox with a vicious C4 Spike, he got on commentary and accepted Cole’s challenge. The match was made official: Fletcher, Takeshita, and Alexander vs. Cole, Strong, and O’Reilly.

This all adds to an already stacked lineup for Double or Nothing, which also features:

  • AEW Women’s Championship: Toni Storm (c) vs. Mina Shirakawa
  • Owen Hart Tournament Finals: Will Ospreay vs. Hangman Page & Mercedes Moné vs. Jamie Hayter
  • AEW Tag Titles: The Hurt Syndicate (c) vs. Dustin Rhodes & Sammy Guevara
  • Anarchy in the Arena: Omega, Swerve, Willow, Joe, Hobbs & Shibata vs. Moxley, Claudio, Shafir, Yuta & The Young Bucks
  • AEW Continental Championship: Kazuchika Okada vs. Mike Bailey
  • Stretcher Match: Mark Briscoe vs. Ricochet
  • FTR vs. Nigel McGuinness & Daniel Garcia

With Cole’s faction finally back at full strength and tensions boiling with the Don Callis Family, this six-man clash could steal the show.
