Dave Meltzer explains PAC's absence at AEW Double or Nothing 2019

PAC did not appear at the inaugural AEW Double or Nothing event in 2019 due to a visa issue and his refusal to lose a match while representing Dragon Gate as its champion. This detail emerged from a discussion on Wrestling Observer Radio by Dave Meltzer, who noted that PAC faced Hangman Page in an independent match a week before the pay-per-view. The planned match at Double or Nothing was intended to set up a future title bout but was instead conducted at a house show in the UK. Page ultimately secured a victory over PAC later at AEW Full Gear 2019 after PAC dropped his title.
