AEW World Tag Team Title Eliminator Tournament Final Match

The Lucha Brothers (Penta El Zero Miedo & Rey Fenix) (w/Alex Abrahantes) vs. The Jurassic Express (Jungle Boy & Luchasaurus) (w/Marko Stunt)

A fantastic bout between Fenix and Penta vs Jurassic Express. Tons of fast action, great spots, near falls and kick outs here with both teams fighting to advance in the tournament. The crowd was super into it for both teams and set the bar high for an opening match. 4.5 / 5

Promo – Setting up Miro vs Kingston at All Out will be a good match. Gives Kingston something to do and Miro a good opponent to face.

The Bunny (w/The Blade) vs. Tay Conti

A quick match where The Bunny controlled most the match. Penelope Ford coming out caused the cheap finish after Conti was picking the lead up some. Good to help move a story with The Bunny and Ford but nothing here was really that great and Conti sadly was stuck playing down and dumb most the match. 1.5 / 5

Tag Team Match

Christian Cage & Frankie Kazarian vs. Brandon Cutler & Kenny Omega (w/Don Callis & MT Nakazawa)

A below average match that only served to continue the Omega / Cage feud into All Out. We were given far too much Cutler in ring who was only a comedy guy and dumbed the match down. Omega mostly played a scared heel after losing his Impact title to Cage two weeks before. For having 3 great workers in a match none were really given much to work with or shine here. 2 / 5
