On Saturday night at All Out, the AEW World Tag Team Championships changed hands in a high‑stakes ladder match that saw the Young Bucks defeat Adam Copeland, Christian Cage and FTR. The bout was a culmination of a heated feud that had been brewing since the previous month’s All In event.
All In Set the Stage
During All In, the Young Bucks defended their titles against Adam Copeland and Christian Cage. Although the Bucks emerged victorious, the match was marred by controversy. Christian used a wrench to secure the win, prompting the Bucks to express frustration with the outcome. The incident ignited a broader backlash from AEW’s tag‑team community.
In the aftermath, several top teams—including the returning FTR, The Motor City Machine Guns and The New Level—confronted Copeland and Cage in the ring. The confrontation underscored the depth of the division and set the tone for the upcoming showdown at All Out.
Building the Ladder Match
Following the confrontation, the Young Bucks challenged Copeland and Cage to a three‑way ladder match. The duo accepted, and the match was announced for All Out. Copeland hinted at a “tables, ladders and chairs” (TLC) style, echoing the classic matches he helped popularize in WWE with The Hardy Boyz and The Dudley Boyz.
The stipulation promised a blend of high‑risk spots and brutal physicality. All Out’s venue, the historic T‑Wolves Arena, provided an ideal backdrop for the spectacle.
The Ladder Match Unfolds
The match began with all four teams brawling near the entrance, each vying for control of the ladder that held the championship belts. The Young Bucks showcased their agility, executing a series of high‑flying maneuvers that kept the crowd on their feet.
FTR, known for their technical prowess, countered with a series of hard‑hitting strikes and a signature “The 3‑Step” move that left the audience in awe. Meanwhile, Copeland and Cage leveraged their experience, employing strategic positioning and a well‑timed “BTE Trigger” from the top of the ladder to incapacitate the Bucks.
Despite the onslaught, the Young Bucks displayed resilience. They weathered the brutal assault, using their teamwork to recover and mount a comeback. The climax saw the Bucks hit a decisive BTE Trigger from the ladder’s apex, sending Cage crashing to the mat and allowing the Bucks to secure the belts.
Historic Achievement and Future Implications
The victory marked the Young Bucks’ fourth reign as AEW World Tag Team Champions, cementing their legacy as one of the most dominant teams in the promotion’s history. Their win also signaled a shift in the tag‑team landscape, as the division’s top contenders now face a renewed rivalry with FTR and the other teams that challenged Copeland and Cage.
As the story continues, fans will watch to see how the Bucks defend their titles against the returning FTR and other challengers, while Copeland and Cage look to reclaim their status in the division.
