All Elite Wrestling (AEW) is set to focus more heavily on tag team wrestling in 2025, benefiting both the men’s and women’s divisions. The men’s tag teams, including top acts like FTR, The Young Bucks, and Brodigas, have delivered some of the year’s standout matches. To solidify its reputation as a hub for tag team competition, AEW has also introduced the AEW Women’s Tag Team Championship, accompanied by a tournament to crown the inaugural champions.
Looking at the free agent scene, there are seven new potential tag team signees who might soon make their AEW debut.
Number seven on this list is The Righteous, consisting of Vincent and Dutch. They joined AEW in 2023 and spent two years as fixtures on Ring of Honor TV before requesting and receiving their release in May 2025, becoming free agents. Known for their distinctive and quirky personas, Vincent and Dutch have always managed to stand out regardless of the promotion they’re in. After some time on the free agent market, there’s a chance they might return to AEW, potentially with fresh, improved opportunities to showcase their unique style.
Fan Take: This development is exciting for AEW fans as it signals a renewed commitment to tag team wrestling, offering fresh storylines and rivalries. Bringing back unique teams like The Righteous could inject creativity and unpredictability into the tag division, elevating the overall quality and appeal of AEW programming.
