With AEW pumping so many unbelievable in-ring showcases onto the likes of Dynamite and Rampage each and every year, it's becoming harder and harder to forge a genuine classic that sits head and shoulders above the rest.

And while the teams would eventually go on to produce a slightly more memorable ladder encounter later down the road, The Young Bucks and Jurassic Express' first meeting over the AEW World Tag Team Championships also acts as an overlooked masterpiece that initially left many wondering why the challengers weren't thrown into another round at All Out 2021.

Nick and Matt Jackson were having the time of their damn lives heeling it up throughout, body spraying and eating all kinds of crap from an increasingly over Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus.

A terrifically executed piece of business, crammed full of delicious near-falls and a reminder of just how close to being truly elite the Jurassic twosome were at the time, those cries to see the babyfaces get a deserved second shot soon dwindled away on the back of The Bucks' all-timer against The Lucha Bros at the PPV.

Had that steel cage epic not gone down, though, there's a good chance All Elite fans would still be passionately screaming about this should-be cult tag hit today.
