World Tag Team Championships Eliminator: Young Bucks vs. Mark Davis and Jake Doyle

Last Time in Action: Matt and Nick Jackson defeated Kevin Knight and Kyle Fletcher (WrestleDream, October 17); Mark Davis and Jake Doyle alongside Wardlow defeated The Death Riders (Dynamite, October 14).

Davis and Doyle went right after The Young Bucks to start the match, dragging them outside and throwing them around.

Doyle Powerbombed Nick through the timekeeper's table. Davis laid into Matt with a trio of Close Your Eyes Piledrivers while Doyle knocked out Nick with a Bearhug. The two then pinned both champions together.

This was a genuinely shocking opener for the usual AEW standard. Typically, AEW uses the opener for a longer action-packed contest to heat up the crowd.

Instead, Davis and Doyle absolutely dominated, taking advantage of the damage Kevin Knight and Kyle Fletcher did to the champions on Saturday.

The big men of the Don Callis Family needed a big heat-up moment, and this was good as it gets. The Young Bucks have a monumental hill to climb when their titles are on the line.

This also helped continue to sell that Davis is one of the scariest big men in AEW right now for anyone to run into.

While more segment than true match, this was a rousing success in immediately heating up credible threats to the World Tag Team Championships.

Result

Davis and Doyle def. Matt and Nick by pinfall to earn a future World Tag Team Championships match.
