It's official.
On Tuesday's Countdown to AEW Dynamite, Santana & Ortiz (formerly LAX in IMPACT Wrestling) were revealed as Chris Jericho's mystery partners against The Elite (Kenny Omega & The Young Bucks). The six-man tag team bout will headline the premiere of AEW Dynamite on Wednesday, Oct. 2 on TNT.
Jericho selected Santana & Ortiz as they gave him a "thank you" following AEW All Out when Jericho won the AEW World Title. Santana & Ortiz made their official AEW debut at All Out, attacking The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson) following their ladder match against The Lucha Bros (Pentagon Jr & Fenix).
