In the latest episode of AEW Dynamite, the Young Bucks, Matthew and Nicholas Jackson, advanced in the AEW World Tag Team Championship contender tournament by defeating the Outrunners in the opening match. The Outrunners initially dominated the match with strong teamwork, but the Young Bucks made a solid comeback, ultimately sealing their victory with the TK driver. After the match, former Elite member Kazuchika Okada made a surprise appearance to support the Young Bucks but was interrupted by Swerve Strickland, leaving his future involvement in the tag team title race uncertain. The Young Bucks will face their next opponents, determined on the July 31 episode of AEW Collision, with a chance to meet either FTR or the Bang Bang Gang in the tournament final. The ultimate winner will earn a title shot against AEW World Tag Team Champions Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin.
