All Out 2025
4 Way Ladder Tag Match
The Young Bucks versus JetSpeed versus Hechicero and Josh Alexander versus Brodido (c)
It was a surprise that AEW decided to put the AEW World Tag Team Championship on Brodido, but it follows a precedent that All Elite Wrestling set in their first year on TV.
It was a problem in other promotions (essentially everywhere) in which they would just throw together two singles wrestlers and make them immediately superior to established tag teams. It was a problem that always hurt the value of being a well oiled machine tag team. AEW emphasizes their teams, but also appreciates when two wrestlers, even if they are usually working in singles, gel together to form a unit. There’s a work that gets put into establishing them that doesn’t diminish the other teams.
The first was Hangman Adam Page and Kenny Omega, who beat SCU to become the second AEW World Tag Team Champions. They would eventually lose to an established team in FTR. In 2022, two new AEW wrestlers in Swerve Strickland and Keith Lee would become Swerve In Our Glory and shock to defeat the Young Bucks. Their run only lasted 70 days, but Swerve In Our Glory was a memorable team that did not diminish the titles. The only team that did feel a step back was Ricky Starks and Big Bill, who would be dispatched by Darby Allin and Sting. Darby and Sting maybe weren’t established tag team wrestlers but they did work together numerous times.
This takes us to Brodido. They have only worked together about a dozen times and it all happened this team, but it’s obvious the two men have great chemistry. Born out of the circumstances of Buddy Matthews getting injured, Brody King needed a new partner. Brody and Bandido worked a trios match with Tomohiro Ishii to beat the Don Callis Family, only to face them a few months later and lose a tag match to ProtoShita, also of the Don Callis Family. This would be the beginning of the team, and it felt like there was something there.
They would enter the AEW World Tag Team Eliminator Tournament and won over an established team of Gates of Agony. They then shocked us by beating the Young Bucks in the semi final. That took them to the final where it ended in a draw against FTR. That draw meant both teams would face Hurt Syndicate at Forbidden Door, in a match that Brodido surprisingly won.
They have since had two losses in multi man matches, an eight wrestler tag and the $50,000 10 wrestler tag, but they also beat the Death Riders in an AEW World Tag Team Championship defence and defended the titles against Galeon Fantasma in CMLL.
It’s hard to say if the team is going to keep the titles for a long time. It’s clear that there are teams above them, and this pay per view will have Christian Cage and Adam Copeland versus FTR getting a much larger spotlight than the AEW World Tag Team Championship. However, that’s to be expected when a well established team faces a reuniting team doing essentially a retirement tour. Brodido can get their flowers in other ways.
Facing off against Brodido in this ladder match (did it have to be ladders? Okay fine) will be the Young Bucks, who defeated the Bang Bang Gang of Juice Robinson and Austin Gunn. Brodido has beaten the Young Bucks before, but this will now be more their domain than Brodido’s.
Next is JetSpeed, who have teamed quite a bit with Brodido. There’s no friends in a match like this, and it’ll be great to see how Bailey and Bandido interact with each other during the match.
Finally, you have the Canadian boy Josh Alexander teaming with a wizard in Hechicero who beat Top Flight to get the final spot.
I think the tag team division is inching closer to proper relevancy in AEW again, as outside of this match you have Gates of Agony and Hurt Syndicate, and it feels like we might be close to a Jurassic Express reunion. Or maybe that’s just a fantasy I’ve conjured in my brain. I did just talk about a wizard. Add in FTR, C+C, and the teams of this match? You have a healthy tag team division.
I don’t know how long Brodido lasts as a team, as I’m sure both men still have singles match aspirations, but I feel like as long as it does? It’s best they look strong against all comers.
