Eddie Kingston is stepping back into tag team territory and hes bringing Ortiz with him.
AEW officially announced that Kingston and Ortiz will reunite on the January 17 episode of AEW Collision: Maximum Carnage, where theyll go head-to-head with the Grizzled Young Veterans.
The announcement comes after Ortiz made his return during AEW Worlds End: Zero Hour, saving Kingston from a post-match attack by the Grizzled Young Veterans after his hard-fought win over Zack Gibson. This weeks Collision featured a heated segment between the two sides, setting the stage for a long-awaited tag team showdown.
This will be the first time Kingston and Ortiz team together on AEW television since their real-life fallout in 2022. While theyve had a tense history both on and off-screen, AEWs latest move suggests a new chapter is being written starting with payback.
