Pentagon has been a star with multiple promotions, including AEW, AAA, and Lucha Underground. He and Fenix, otherwise known as the Lucha Brothers, are the current reigning AAA World Tag Team Champions. The team is set to wrestle The Young Bucks in a ladder match at AEW All Out at the end of this month.
The Bucks and Lucha Brothers previously faced each other at AEW Double Or Nothing when the Bucks were the AAA World Tag Team Champions. Though the Bucks won that match, the Lucha Brothers defeated them a few weeks later in AAA to win the championships.
Moxley, on the other hand, is getting ready to face Kenny Omega at All Out. The build to that match started when Moxley made his surprise debut at the conclusion of Double Or Nothing, attacking both Omega and Chris Jericho.
Both matches at AEW All Out have the possibility of being show-stealers on what is one of the most anticipated events of the summer.
