10 HUGE AEW Revolution 2021 Predictions You Need To Know
7. Casino Tag Team Royale
AEW's Casino Battle Royales are often clunky, disjointed affairs, giving the impression that the promotion is yet to nail the format, though things are looking a little more streamlined for this tag team offering.
Rather than wrestlers entering in batches, this will be more like a Royal Rumble. Two tag teams will start with a new group entering every 90 seconds. Tandems are only eliminated when both members have gone over the top rope and hit the outside, with the winners earning a World Tag Team Title shot later down the ramp.
A bevvy of teams have been confirmed so far, with more to come. Amongst the big guns are Santana and Ortiz, the Death Triangle duo of PAC and Rey Fenix, first champions SoCal Uncensored (Frankie Kazarian and Christopher Daniels), and The Dark Order's Alex Reynolds and John Silver plus Evil Uno and Stu Grayson. Newcomers Bear Country and Top Flight make for fresh pairings and there is all kind of scope for drama here, particularly as single team members are eliminated, leaving the other to fight alone.
PAC and Fenix have the moment after the go-home Dynamite, which closed on a multi-team brawl. Santana and Ortiz would be a more compelling story, though, particularly if Chris Jericho and MJF win later on.
Winners: Santana and Ortiz
