AEW All Out preview: Young Bucks vs. Lucha Bros ladder match
By Serena Burks
Two teams of real-life brothers face off again in Chicago at AEW’s All Out pay-per-view.
The Young Bucks and Lucha Bros have been battling since the inception of AEW in January, both teams exchanging victory at various events in the U.S. and Mexico. Both teams consist of real-life brothers, making this rivalry one that could go on for a long time.
Matt and Nick Jackson, the Young Bucks, have been wrestling for 15 years while Pentagon Jr. and Fenix, the Lucha Bros, have only been a team for three years. Length of time in the sport has not hindered the Lucha Bros, though, as they have their fair share of victories and championships.
What makes this matchup so interesting is that both teams consist of real-life brothers, something that isn’t all that common. But if you have siblings, then you know what it’s like to be on the same page with someone, to think the way that they think, to know what their next move is before they do. And that’s what both of these teams bring to the table. It’s chemistry that can’t be taught, can’t be learned; it’s borne in the blood and etched in the DNA.
On top of the chemistry of both teams being on point, they’ve added weapons to this match: Ladders. That happened earlier this month when the Lucha Bros officially challenged Young Bucks for the event, and the AAA tag team titles are on the line. The titles have changed hands several times over the last few months and are currently held by Pentagon and Fenix, who won them from the Young Bucks at AAA Verano de Escandalo in June.
The last few months saw the Young Bucks defeat the Lucha Bros at Double or Nothing. Then the Young Bucks teamed with Kenny Omega to face Laredo Kid, Pentagon and Fenix at Fyter Fest, which the former team won. At Fight for the Fallen, Young Bucks defeated Cody and Dustin Rhodes, and the Lucha Bros defeated Scorpio Sky and Frankie Kazarian.
The ladder match is going to be one for the ages, with both teams on the same page, it could be a long match as well. It will be bloody and it will be brutal, but only one team can walk away the victor and AAA Tag Team Champion. Will it be the more experienced Young Bucks, or the high flying Lucha Bros? Tune in this Saturday to find out.
