It’s a testament how aew pushes the tag team division Being 💯, I can’t think of a promotion that has handled tag team wrestling this well. At least in my lifetime. Smackdown in 2002 was great, as was nxt a few years back. This match was decent, sure with more time on a ppv they could have a classic. |

WWF and WCW did it well back in the day. I’ve gone back to watch some, but that wasn’t my era. Did they have this many tag teams with an upward trajectory? no, AEW definitely has far more established and fast developing tag talents going currently than either of those, but the overall showcase and focus has parallels in terms of importance. |

Awesome match, shame they had to audible the finish, hope Cash isn't too damaged.

? I'm not trying to be silly, I legit don't know what you mean. Like having managers outside the ring? yeh. why book these one after the other. Should have a womens match or singles match inbetween at least That's fair. If I'm guessing (and I am) they knew these two matches plus the main event are the three with potential to go long, so doing these two one after another may help keep the show on time more. |

This match was decent, sure with more time on a ppv they could have a classic. I feel like SD in 02 only had focus on a handful of teams at a time. I liked NXT’s tag division too at one point, but again it felt like at most 4 teams were getting shine at a time. |

Injured her wrist in the match with Nyla. She doesn't want to take time off. |

I'm maybe biased as i was at no mercy 2002, one of my fav tag matches ever. |
