00:00The bowling contest scheduled for one ball has a 60-minute time limit and is for the AEW World Tag Team Championship!
00:18Introducing first, the challengers, accompanied by Stokely from Asheville, North Carolina, and a combined weight of 443 pounds,
00:28Jax the Axe, and Cash Wheeler, F-T-R!
00:36May I be so bold it's the same something right here?
00:38Yes, you may, Tony.
00:39Stokely needs to, or Big Stoke, pardon me, needs to just be a regular pain in the ass at the backside and leave making video below.
00:48That's bold!
00:49Yes! What in the world?
00:51Push the boat out, Tony, why don't ya?
00:55F-T-R!
00:58Proving throughout their careers here, not just in AEW, but in professional wrestling, that they are one of, if not the best tag team of their generation.
01:06But I'll deny that.
01:08Nigel, I know they've made things personal with you in the past, they've made things intensely personal with Bandito.
01:14Certainly, we'll get to that in a second.
01:19And their opponents, at a combined weight of 496 pounds, they are the rating and defending AEW World Team Champions, Brody King and Bandito!
01:34The feel-good story of 2025.
01:42Cash Wheeler said, he's gonna close the book.
01:46To your point, it wasn't long ago that the Ring of Honor World Champion, as well as AEW World Team Champion, Bandito, had flown his grandmother, his abuela, in to watch him wrestle at ringside.
02:00That's the axe, trying to get a kiss from her instead, got a slap, and that ended up with Bandito's brother.
02:08Gravity almost getting spiked, pile-driven, were it not for Bandito and Brody King to come in and save him.
02:16And certainly, FTR has been business as usual, trying to get inside their opponent's head, trying to irritate them, infuriate them, and certainly, that could be a factor in this match.
02:26We want to take a look at the difference between both teams.
02:29Brody King told Yahoo Sports Uncrowned on facing FTR, they're the perfect blend of old school and new school.
02:35And then FTR and iHeartRadio's Battleground podcast said, I think we have an advantage over any tag team in the world.
02:42There's no team like us in the world.
02:45You have a team full of arrogance, and a team that realizes where they are and who they're against.
02:52Confidence, as much as arrogance though.
02:56FTR, I've been in the ring with them earlier this year, I felt how tough they are.
03:01How synergistic.
03:04How dangerous a tag team they are when they can string moves together.
03:09And with big stroke on the outside.
03:12The winner of the 2025 Kourtney Kardashian award for oversharing.
03:17If you blow it out on live TV, I'm short, I'm bald, and I can't get any hoes.
03:22I was gone.
03:28I'll bet.
03:29Bandito, Cash Wheeler starting things off with their respective sides.
03:3317th AEW World Tag Team Champions, Bandito and Brody King.
03:37A team that coalesced right before our eyes.
03:40And Tony, do you think Bandito and Brody, the champs, do they have the advantage because there's less tape to research on them?
03:49They, FTR, of course, made their, you know, their careers as a tag team unit.
03:54But Bandito and Brody have only come together very recently.
03:57That's right, and that's a great point.
03:58In the modern wrestling that we have, there's so much footage.
04:01Everything that FTR's done is on videotape somewhere.
04:06So they can find it, they can watch it.
04:08Only a few matches on Brodito.
04:10That's a great point.
04:11Let's see if that comes into play in this matchup.
04:16Bandito has been so sensational.
04:18Let's bring them on a world champ and a world tag team champ as well.
04:22Not the first time these teams have faced off together.
04:25It wasn't long ago when Dynamite, they went to a 30-minute draw tonight.
04:2960-minute time limit.
04:31So, what a lot.
04:32We're gonna get a decision.
04:33Whoa!
04:34Bandito, making up both Dax and Cash.
04:39In rapid succession, chucked to the chest.
04:42Don't insult his abuela.
04:45They insulted his grandfather as well.
04:48Back in catering.
04:50I thought he was at steak seasoning.
04:53Would you stop for crying out loud?
04:56He brought his ashes!
04:58Well, we have a brief pause in the action.
05:01We want to shout out all of our terrific fans at Dave & Buster's locations nationwide
05:05joining us for tonight's full-geared E-Per-View event.
05:08Dax and Rory King.
05:12Dax and Rory King.
05:15I think Rory King is afraid of Dax in for all.
05:19Rory King is a snowman.
05:21Dax trying to get in his face.
05:23And Dax are one of the greatest choppers ever.
05:25Hardy Center's ever in ALW.
05:27It's getting schooled on how they hit somebody.
05:31Dax backed up to the corner, but he got the boot into the jaw.
05:34Hardy King and he got a pair of hands into his chest as Harwood sent spilling to the outside.
05:41And Brody King's not going to give Dax any rest but on the outside.
05:44Ooh!
05:45You can see the redness.
05:46The welts already rising out of the chest of Dax.
05:49On the track of a whip.
05:51And again.
05:52Ooh!
05:53Brody is able to hear the footsteps of Cash coming up from behind him.
05:56Shut him down and sends Dax into the barricade.
05:59Such a long reach.
06:00You can see it.
06:01Huge man, Brody King.
06:03Heavily tattooed or sparingly skinned might be a more apt description.
06:08You know you can take a lot of punishment if you've got those many tattoos.
06:12Pain is nothing to you.
06:14A few tattoos yourself, Tony.
06:17Yeah, but don't look like that.
06:19Senton.
06:20Brody sits out with it.
06:22Collects the legs.
06:23But Dax Harwood able to kick out.
06:25Quick tag.
06:26Out some Bandito.
06:27Brody King once again catches the legs.
06:30Brody King once again catches Cash Wheeler coming in.
06:33And...
06:34Bandito.
06:35Oh my God!
06:37Usually it's the other way around, but Bandito!
06:43We talked about it before.
06:45Bandito.
06:46Known for his strength.
06:48And they're having himself...
06:49Oh wait a second.
06:50No need for this.
06:51This is a mistake.
06:52No.
06:53No!
06:54No!
06:55Macarena!
06:56Smart!
06:57Bandito.
06:58Watch out!
06:59Watch out!
07:00Look!
07:01Big Stan.
07:02Stop putting his body in Bandito's pad.
07:03He's turned his back.
07:04Over the top goes Bandito!
07:05No no no no no!

07:32Look at this, though.
07:34First of all, taking it to FTR, but they were lying in wait.
07:37Just watch.
07:39Oh!
07:40All the way into the announce table.
07:43Look, this is not breaking.
07:45Cover made.

08:19Keep fighting!
08:22There's plenty of them here in New Jersey.
08:26From what I understand.
08:26How would you stop?
08:27just an opinion not mine
08:31back in their wheelhouse quite literally quick tags in and out
08:41cash wheeler the chop in the corner quick tag out to tax harwood bandito isolated
08:51it was last month that bandito and brody king were able to survive two of the greatest
09:00individual wrestlers in the world in kazuchika okada and kanosuke tikeshda exactly but now
09:08finding themselves matched up against men that have redefined tag team wrestling in the
09:15modern era nigel undoubtedly they are certainly true uh followers the great lineage of great
09:24tag teams of the past midnight express minnesota wrecking crew the andesons tony
09:34you want to add some rock and roll express yeah and classics and learned from the greatest
09:41bandito escapes from the grip of dax levels a shot at cash but that's quick to the midsection
09:48up and over goes bandito and now ftr doing a good job of blocking bandito and bandito
09:55oof not sure what bandito had in mind and neither were fdr and he's able to hoist up both members
10:03of ftr and oh wait cash on the floor trying to pull brody out of the corner prevent him from
10:08making the tag giving bandito the relief oh he knocked his block oh he did and brody just absorbed
10:17that shot by cash tag made tag is made but referee paul turner he was contending with karis wheeler
10:24he didn't see the tag and therefore is waving it off and ftr seizing on this opportunity
10:32i'm afraid if ftr gets a much of advantage here they're just gonna smother
10:41brodino
10:44frustration on the part of brody king
10:51legal tag which the official didn't see
10:55understandably so now it was incumbent upon him that he keep a level head
10:59wait a second though brodino again
11:03the opportunity
11:10now the tag referee says it's legal and brody king comes in smugging for the fences exactly
11:15what he's gonna do there's no finesse in brody king he's gonna run right through you
11:20brody king wow wasn't pretty no it wasn't but it was effective
11:40and ftr now they're looking for a respite but they're just setting themselves up now

13:04legs to the outside setting up a potential superplex
13:08trying to weaken the champion

23:15And all elite wrestling, FTR, can call themselves champions.
23:21An incredible showing from the former champions.
23:26But if Brodino had hoped to continue the feel-good story of 2025,
23:31their hopes are dead as a dodo.
23:33We were talking about the great tag team change of the past.
23:36Devon Erickson there as well.
23:38And now you can put FTR in there as well as one of the great tag teams of all time.
