Mick Foley will make his AEW debut Sunday at Double or Nothing, appearing with Renee Paquette on the Buy In pre-show before the pay-per-view starts.
Darby Allin, who faces MJF in a hair-vs.-title AEW Championship match, said Foley was a major childhood influence and called having him at the event "awesome."
3 matches are scheduled for the New York pre-show, including a 5-minute tag title eliminator, a 10-man tag and a trios match.
The appearance adds a wrestling legend to one of AEW's marquee events, with Foley's first role centered on the pre-show rather than an in-ring bout.
