I usually go for the bet/3bet on the flop, but this looks fine given the way you played it.

I don't like a bet 3-bet here because I don't think it's a given that he will raise the flop. I think most players will just call the flop with overs unless they have a really strong draw to go with the overs. If he has AA or KK, I will be putting in 4 bets on the flop as a big dog. I think the only time bet-3bet is good here is when he has JJ or AT.

Anyway villain showed AA, and I felt like a donk calling this down, but I guess it's mandatory against an aggressive opponent.

I think you got off cheap I would have bet out the turn and called the raise.

The tempo he was betting with really felt like AA. I've noticed alot of online players will bet and raise very fast with aces.

I mostly wanted to make sure I shouldn't have folded it anywhere.
