With the win, Brody King and Bandido will now face FTR (Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler) in the finals of the tournament. The winning team will challenge the Hurt Syndicate (Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin) for the titles at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door.
The loss is devastating for the Young Bucks, as they’ve now lost two out of their last three tag team bouts. Furthermore, the Bucks are still dealing with production issues, as their nameplate on tonight’s show read ‘Max & Jeremy’. This is a reference to their names in TNA Wrestling.
