The left side of the bracket has The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson) vs. Private Party (Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy) and The Lucha Bros (Pentagon Jr. & Fenix) vs. Jurassic Express (Luchasaurus & Jungle Boy) in the first round.

Luchasaurus & Jungle Boy got their spot in the tournament by winning a fan vote over Jack Evans & Angelico.

The Young Bucks vs. Private Party is taking place on week two of AEW television on Wednesday, October 9. The Lucha Bros vs. Jurassic Express will take place on week three of AEW TV on Wednesday, October 16.

The right side of the bracket has SoCal Uncensored (two of Christopher Daniels, Frankie Kazarian & Scorpio Sky) vs. Best Friends (Trent Barreta & Chuck Taylor) in the first round. That match is also set for October 16. The winning team will advance to face The Dark Order in the semifinals.

Both semifinal matches will be held on week four of AEW TV on Wednesday, October 23. The finals will then take place on week five of AEW TV on Wednesday, October 30, with the winning team becoming the inaugural AEW Tag Team Champions.

AEW is holding a fan vote to determine the final team for their Tag title tournament.

On Twitter today, AEW opened voting to decide whether Luchasaurus & Jungle Boy or Angelico & Jack Evans will be the final team in the tournament. Both teams having winless records was the reason given for the fan vote.

As would be expected, Luchasaurus & Jungle Boy are solidly in the lead at press time. They have 85 percent of the vote to Angelico & Evans’ 15 percent. 

Voting ends tomorrow (Saturday, September 14) at 11:59 p.m. Eastern time.

Angelico & Evans lost to Private Party (Marq Quen & Isiah Kassidy) on the All Out pre-show last month. After the match, there was an angle where Angelico & Evans turned heel by attacking Private Party.

The Dark Order got a first-round bye in the Tag Team title tournament by defeating Best Friends (Trent Barreta & Chuck Taylor) at All Out. A first-round match between The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson) and Private Party has been announced for week two of AEW TV on Wednesday, October 9. The rest of the teams for the tournament have yet to be revealed.

The semifinals of the tournament are set for week four of AEW TV on Wednesday, October 23. The inaugural champions will then be crowned on week five of AEW TV.
