“Fantastic cage match – emotional ending.” -Joe Towner

“The best tag team match of 2021. Maybe the best cage match ever. Need I say more?” -Jeuron Dove

“I don’t know what else needs to be said about this match other than it was an instant classic. The AEW Tag Team Division is the best in the world, full stop, and it keeps getting better. The Lucha Brothers each bring an insane amount of charisma and god-given talent to each match there in; Penta is so charismatic that he could believably do promos even without the very talented Alex Abrahantes translating for the non-Spanish speaking masses, and I don’t think there’s anybody in the world with the ability in the ring that matches Fenix at his best. On the other side, for better or worse, the Young Bucks know how to make every show feel like it’s about them, and their run as champs was excellent throughout the year. The best match of the year, bar none.” -Slyguy46

“Best Tag Match I have seen since Misawa&Kobashi vs Kawada&Taue from All Japan” -The Future Hall of Famer Scottie B

“What a surprise, the “Tag Team Wrestling Matters” company has delivered another Match of the Year Tag Title bout. From the peacocking Lucha Bros intro, to the post match hug of Penta’s daughter, everything about this match captures the big fight feel that we just haven’t been seeing for much of the Pandemic Era. Brutal, bloody, a giant thing for Fenix to hurl himself off of (Get well soon!), the match has every ounce of drama you would expect from two teams with the best chemistry in the business. While other matches such as Omega/Danielson or the Hangman Page broadway might have stolen the headlines because of their big implications, at the end of the day this will be the match from 2021 that will hold up as the best of the year.” -Jason “Njiska” Westhaver

“This was my all-time match tag team match and cage match ever all in one. Everything about it was as perfect as I’ve ever seen.” -Josh Boutwell

“Pro wrestling is at it’s best when you can feel something. Pro wrestling is at it’s VERY best when it MAKES you feel something, and this match delivered. The entrances, the post-match celebration, the drama, the action, the twists and turns, this match made me finally feel something after a long, long time of detachment.” -Shane D

“I wasn’t expecting anything great to come out of this match. I am not a big fan of the stipulation, I was getting tired of watching the two teams wrestle each other and I was initially hoping to see the Jurassic Express face the Young bucks at the PPV. However, these two teams gave us one of the best cage matches ever. The match had a lot of creative spots and great storytelling that made the Lucha Brothers get a bigger pop from the Chicago crowd than CM Punk that night.” -Saud Al-Rasheedi

“An absolutely brutal match that had even my non-fan girlfriend enthralled. This is not a type of match I want to see all the time, but as an occasional blow-off to an intense feud, it’ll do. It also gets credit for going against-type: The main complaint about the Bucks and Penta/Fenix from a certain section of fans is that they’re all highspots and no story. The cage limited the opportunity for highspots and the story was heavily focused here.” -Greg Parks

“This was a war! The Lucha Brothers come in like true babyfaces and run wild early on before the Bucks are able to use the cage to batter the brothers. They try to isolate and pick off the Lucha Brothers and hit their trademark moves to end it quickly, but it’s not enough. So the Bucks get violent! They rip at the Lucha Brothers’ mask and bust both brothers open. Hit low blows on them and even use a shoe with thumbtacks on it for superkicks! They hit the BTE Trigger but the pin is broken up! The crowd is going mental at this point! The Lucha Brothers fire up and fight back. Fenix hits an insane dive off the top of the cage! Double team piledriver by the Lucha Brothers ends it! New Champions! The crowd loses their minds! What a match! What a finish!” -Alex Kalil

“The best tag team steel cage match ever” -Sidney L. Pullar

“I will forever have the image of Penta’s torn up, bloody mask smiling to his little girl in the crowd burned into my mind. The perfect ending to an incredible title reign from the Bucks.” -Sam Brown

“AEW capitalizes on its promise of top-tier tag team wrestling, filled with emotion, action, entrances, and intensity.” -David Majors

“This was an amazing spectacle of two of the greatest modern tag teams at the top of their game. You have great spots, storytelling, violent clashes, and the cage was actually used and worked as a gimmick. I was jumping up and down from beginning to end, and it is the best match live I have ever seen. It was a special match that created a special moment that I won’t forget.” -Abraham Delgado

“Insane…thats it…just insane” -Markeem Graham

“The biggest stage for the Lucha Brothers to shine on globally presented them with one of their best matches as a team and a showcase for just how masterful each team is at their style.” -Jeremy Peeples

“Very few moments this year matched the emotions conveyed after this match. The frightening juxtaposition of Pentagon, bloodied and mask ripped, greeting his family as an AEW champion for the first time was awe inspiring, something you could never script out properly. This was a match in which all four men truly gave it their all. The experience equally exhausting and cathartic for the audience as we watched a two year long feud come to a close on as high a note as you could imagine.” -Brian Moore

“It feels like AEW tradition at this point that every year the Bucks and Lucha Brothers are going to have a summer match and it’s going to be absolutely fantastic. This may have exceeded all the previous matches. From the amazing Lucha Brothers Entrance, to the tacks spot with the shoe, in which in a year with a lot of tack spots rises above the rest with a great piece of storytelling, to the performance of Fenix who once again made his case for 2021’s most impressive wrestler.” -Kentucky210

“The Fenix pinfall breakup in this match is the best pinfall breakup in history. For as loud as the crowd seemed on TV, it was even louder live. I had never felt anything like it.” -Brady Childs

“Fast-paced action, great story-telling, death-defying moments. Everything you would expect from these two tag teams.” -J.D. Oliva

“Perhaps the best match I have ever had the privilege of watching live. An amazing affair, story, wrestling, crowd investment, and emotion. Ask anyone who was in the suite with me that night, I was losing my damn mind. They might of not of been noticing as they were using their damn minds also. I remember everyone high-fiving each other once the match was over. Can’t blame us, it was that fucking awesome.

I love pro-wrestling, and this match was a magnification of EVERYTHING I love about pro-wrestling, the spectacle, the athleticism, the sheer drama of it all, and the happy ending of watching The Lucha Brothers finally win the titles. I will treasure the fact I got to see this match live and in person for the remainder of my days. Fantastic, easy five stars, stellar, and I’ve watched it over and over again ever since. This is easily my favorite/best match of the year!” -Jeri L. Evagood

“I’ve been critical of how the Lucha Bros have been booked in AEW as both a tag team and as singles competitors. But here, everything was done to perfection. From the incredible entrance from the Lucha Bros alone, this was going to be the best match these two teams have had. Young Bucks and Lucha Bros have a chemistry that few others have and the low bar for any pairing of them is just a great match. This actually felt like a war, with Penta in particular gushing blood all over the place. Unfortunately the Lucha Bros tag reign would be a dud due to horrible booking once again, but one night, it was all done right.” -BlastoSTG

“Going to All Out was one of the greatest nights of my life, and this match is a big reason why. From the live performance of the Lucha Bros’ theme, expertly done by Mikey Rukus and Muelas De Gallo, I knew I was in for something special. Sure, I was initially hesitant about what these teams could do inside the limits of a steel cage, but those doubts were quickly assuaged as the match went on. It turns out Fenix doesn’t need to jump over the top rope to make people lose their minds, he can just jump off the top of the cage instead. The Bucks were on top of their game, combining wildly cool sequences with punchable faces and heart-pounding drama. The bloody and defiant Lucha Bros, with an energetic Alex Abrahantes as their hypeman, made for great babyfaces. And then you have the third participant in this match, the crowd. We were, no pun intended, all in for this match. When Rey Fenix broke up the pin after the BTE Trigger, a move that had put away team after team during the Bucks’ reign, we went absolutely bonkers. Then when the Lucha Bros won, I literally leapt to my feet in rapturous joy. After dealing with so much real-life nonsense over the past few years, this match made all of it disappear. It’s the best match I’ve ever seen live.” -Andrew Rich

“The Young Bucks and The Lucha Brothers have had a number of excellent tag team encounters in AEW, and after each one, you’re often left with the thought “There’s no way they’re topping that”. However, this Steel Cage Match from the All Out PPV in September somehow managed to top all of their previous bouts together. There was incredible action right from the opening bell, and while one might think that the Steel Cage would limit these four, that was certainly not the case here. The two teams used the Steel Cage to great effect, and the match closed with The Lucha Brothers finally winning the AEW World Tag Team Titles in front of a red hot crowd in Chicago. These are two of the absolute best tag teams in the world, and once again, they knocked it out of the park.” -Sean Sedor

“I was there, in the “VOW Suite” with my 36 week pregnant fiance, two of my absolute best friends, several members of the VOW crew, and Dave Meltzer in the suite next to us. As unbelievable an experience being at All Out live was, this match might have been even better. There’s two things that stick out the most about this one. First is Fenix’s perfect dive off the cage. The second, and something that will be etched into my brain forever, came curtesy of Alex Abrahantes. All four were laying on the mat in the ring, and Alex FIRED THE FUCK UP. He was waving his arms, jumping and running back and forth outside the cage, and stoking the fire of an already red hot Chicago crowd. The swell of noise that he caused is something like I have never heard and ever experienced. He took the crowd from a fever pitch to euphoria. Not only is this easily the best match I have ever experienced live, but it’s one of my favorite matches ever.” -Steve Case

“This match stands as possibly one of the best tag-team matches of all time, and I feel that is exceptional, considering that the AEW Tag Titles were contested in a steel cage. A steel cage removes the need for tagging in and out, which undercuts much of the fundamental and unique psychology that we love specifically about tag-team wrestling. The fact that the Jackson Brothers, along with Penta El Zero M and Rey Fenix composed one of the most highly dramatic tag bouts in ages, without the benefit if the tropes that make tag-team wrestling what it is, speaks to the skill of which these four competitors not only executed their match and told their story – but they defied the conventions of their division and still managed to have an unmistakable classic of tag-team wrestling. A feat unmatched by any other match of 2021.” -Reuel Castillo

“A rip roaring rollercoaster of emotion, showmanship and super cool wrestling. Top drawer” -Joey O’Doherty

“Seeing this match live was an experience that I will never forget in my time as a fan of professional wrestling. From the vivid entrance that welcomed the Lucha Brothers to the NOW Arena to the heelish audacity for the Young Bucks to lace their shoes with thumbtacks at the sole, this was a violent, personal battle that cemented these two groups as being the soulmates of tag team wrestling. I’m in awe about how they keep outdoing their rematches against each other. The crowd was thoroughly behind the Lucha Brothers. Chanting what must have felt like 100 “cero miedos” for the whole cage match was an experience that could only be met at a pro wrestling event.” -Caro

“This match was everything that is good and wonderful about pro wrestling.

It had the athleticism, it had the violence, but perhaps most importantly, it had the payoff to a couple of longterm narratives. First, the match felt like a cap to one of AEW’s first-established feuds, as the Bucks & Lucha Bros reignited their rivalry that produced some of the best matches in the company’s short history back in 2019. Second, the match saw 2 villains in the Young Bucks forced to finally defend their belts on an even playing field, thanks to the added stipulation steel cage.

In the end, all of the elements mentioned above came together (along with a heartwarming postmatch which saw a still-bloody Penta embrace his wife & kids) to create one of the most memorable pro wrestling matches, not just of 2021, but of all time.” -Liam Renner

“Every time I watch the Young Bucks and the Lucha Bros wrestle they find a way to blow my mind. This All Out steel cage match was incredible. It was refreshing to watch a cage match where the participants weren’t trying to run out of the cage. Instead, they just wanted to beat the crap out of each other. There were so many great spots and double team moves in this match. I popped for the return of the infamous shoe full of thumbtacks which left Penta a bloody mess. I’ll never forget Fenix’s insane Crossbody off the top of the cage. This is easily one of the best cage matches I’ve seen in my 30 years of watching wrestling.” -Jeremy Donovan

“Two years ago, I wrote that the Young Bucks were undoubtedly the greatest tag team of all-time after their ladder match with the Lucha Bros at All Out 2019. In the then-Sears Center (now the NOW Arena). Two years later, in that same building, against that same team, the Bucks put forth their greatest performance yet. This was the full Young Bucks experience on display: an exhausting, exciting, and innovative display of tag team wrestling. They hit every note perfectly. I had assumed I had seen everything possible from these two teams, but they raised the stakes in this now-legendary feud once more. Each time the Bucks put forth another MOTYC effort, it’s like watching Kareem win the title with the Lakers in ’85 or Jordan winning the latter half of his six titles. It’s rare that we get to see the greatest of all-time in any given field pad their resume in real-time. The Young Bucks, with the help of matches like this, are continuing to propel their legacy into uncharted territory.” -Case Lowe

“For years, the cage match was an outdated relic. WWE and TNA had overutilized the match and the importance of it dwindled. Years went by without a significant cage match on national television. The more relevant matches were typically done on indie shows, who because of the cost/set-up associated with the cage, would only break it out for a truly important match.

The Young Bucks and Lucha Brothers do not seem like an ideal teams to have a great cage match, since both teams are so excellent at diving outside the ring and along the ropes. However, they showed they could have a cage classic that would rival any other match of its kind in history, a thrilling display in front of a molten hot Chicago crowd. While fans theorized before the match that some truly crazy stunts would be the highlight of the match; both teams played it relatively conservative given past risks they have taken. In a lot of ways that made the match even more impressive; it was an amazing spectacle, but there were no instances where you thought somebody died. A classic tag team match between two of the best teams to ever do it.” -Jesse Collings

“These two teams have had many classics throughout their many encounters, but this was probably their best yet. Violent and exciting match. The Bucks and the Lucha Bros are just perfect for each other.” -Evandro Furtado

“The Young Bucks have become staples of giving the fans of professional wrestling at least one match a year that can be in the consideration as at least tag team match of the year. However, over the last two years, they have been able to put on some of the best tag team matches of all time. That’s where we go here as the Steel Cage battle between them and The Lucha Brothers is potentially the best tag team match I have ever witnessed. The story at hand was simple as the match went on and you could begin to feel for Penta and Fenix. As Penta stepped in front of his brother to take the spiked superkick, it was easy to forget that this was a match for tag team gold. The bout was filled with jaw-dropping spots and ridiculous moments that make this one of the best tag team matches of all time.” -Scott Edwards Jr.

“Two teams ready and willing to do the stupidest things in a cage, what’s not to love.” -Semi Salmikannas

“It is the best match I’ve ever seen live. It is the best match of the Young Bucks excellent title reign, as well as the best match of the Lucha Bros career as a team. The Bucks solidified themselves as one of, if not the best tag team of all time with their excellent reign as AEW Tag Team Champions. This was a match that deserved to end that reign as it was AEW’s best match of the year. Just an excellent combination of emotion, athleticism, and violence coming together in a perfect storm of a wrestling match. The highlight of AEW’s most-marquee PPV of the year.” -Suit Williams

“It could be the fact we drove into town to watch this live, but the sheer craziness of the fast paced spots, no sells, bumps, and huge dive from Fenix, this felt like something special. We see gimmick matches all the time now a days with the basic standard American wrestling has now, but this one had just that feel of them having a wrestling match, with the cage as a bonus. We laughed at war games how it’s just people hitting each other with things just do it, where as this was guys working a match, having the gimmick surrounding them as a bonus. This felt the same way the Takeda vs Kodaka match from June 2018. They had a fantastic wrestling match, and just used the extra elements as a bonus. The payoff also of the Lucha Bros finally winning the titles also helped the cause, as the Bucks had been the most dominant team in wrestling over the course of the last year or so.” -Ryan Cooke

“After having three classics to start the promotion just two years prior, these two legendary teams topped themselves, including the infamous tacks on the Jordans. Remarkable match which was made better being there live.” -Tyler Forness

“Two red hot teams, locked in a cage, and doing their damndest to murder one another. Hard to imagine it not being on the absolute top of anyone’s list, but damn was 2021 a crowded year for banger matches. Fenix deserves special credit for how absolutely insane he was.” -James “NuclearConvoy”

“The greatest cagematch I’ve ever seen. That’s it. That’s the only way to describe this.” -Ed Kody

“I really didn’t expect my ballot to be so AEW heavy, but what can you say against the amazing run this company had this year? All Out, one of their best shows ever, reached its apex with one of the most amazing cage matches, most amazing tag title matches of all time. Am I biased to the Lucha Bros? 100%, but they and the Bucks decided to blow away all expectations and top their insane ladder match from 2 years prior. Great, great stuff here.” -Tim Teresi

“Lucha Bros and Young Bucks can’t seem to help themselves in Chicago. 2 out of the last 3 All Out shows featured these two teams going (forgive me) all out! This cage match was absurd in all the right ways.” -Doug Fowler (Skeach101)

“What a match. This is one of the greatest rivalries in tag wrestling. The cage added another dimension and both teams delivered.” -BJ Bethel

“I regret to inform you the Young Bucks are the greatest tag team of all time. Sorry to be controversial! Sorry about that. At this point I don’t think there’s anyone close. All of their high-level matches are near perfect. In terms of understanding the crowd, they might be smarter wrestlers than anyone working today. Add Fenix — who somehow makes impossible things possible — and a steel cage, and you just have a beautiful tag team wrestling match. Not sure what I can add that hasn’t already been said except maybe that the Lucha Bros. intro alone made this an automatic five-star classic.” -Paul DeBenedetto

“My brother (an overly excitable wrestling fan who hates the Bucks), his girlfriend (a bewildered non-fan who kept asking what the hell was happening), and my exceptionally stoic English friend (a not as excitable but very invested fan) were at my house for All Out and watching with the three of them really crystallized just what made this match so special. Every twist and turn, from the Bucks’ tack-covered sneakers to Fenix’s characteristically spectacular and spontaneous comebacks popped my living like you wouldn’t believe. My brother and I are jumping up and down yelling “oh my god,” my brother’s girlfriend is gasping and muttering “this is sick” and asking my wife if these guys are going to be okay, and my friend is silently grinning. It was a perfectly intense viewing experience. It was also an extremely rewarding babyface triumph from a company that is making a wonderful habit of delivering such moments. Pentagon bleeding his face off from behind a torn mask and screaming for the Bucks not to superkick his brother with their weird tack-shoes was a highlight. That kind of emotion is such a treat in wrestling and it’s what makes this match so memorable for me.” -Casey Fiore

“I’m going to start this one by first saying this, I am not a fan of the Young Bucks at all I wont say why because this isn’t the time and place for it but I’ll just say that they aren’t for me. However having said that I can’t be biased against them because when they are good and they are put up against the right opponents (in this case the Lucha Bro’s) they are GOOD! I ordered this show to see this match because it intrigued me as a Lucha Brother’s fan. AEW’s PPV price is very steep in today’s market but this match alone paid for the entire show that’s how good it was! Sometimes when there’s a cage match wrestlers based on experience wont take advantage of their environment inside of it but this match was excellent because all four men used the cage to their advantage whenever they could which added to the match. It can’t even count how many times someone got trapped in between the cage and the ring itself. The cage itself was really well done because we’ve all seen some pretty crappy cage set ups at events I’m sure but the look of the cage was a sight to see in and of itself. Another thing that I really liked about this match and the way that it was set up was that these teams wanted to not only beat each other up as they did throughout but the match ended with a pinfall victory. When I first got into wrestling a cage match was always something that excited me when they happened but what I didn’t like was the cage escape rules so when someone escaped the cage I never felt that it really solved anything at all. However with this match it ended in a pinfall and it needed to in a grudge match of this magnitude oh and did I mention BLOOD? Because this match had lots of it, go watch this match RIGHT NOW you wont be disappointed! Also just a warning this match is not for the faint of heart.” -Nathan Neumann

“One of the greatest cage matches I have ever witnessed.” -Jacob Nelson

“Was in the building for this and couldn’t believe how much they did and how crazy it got. Had to catch your breath after this match.” -Very Worried About Ibushi’s Shoulder

“The greatest Steel Cage tag team match ever, this match should be the case study on how to do this type of match. With so many moments that will on video montages in the years to come, maybe it’s iconic moment even eclipsing Fenix’s dive off the top of the cage came after the 3-count when a bloodied Penta embraces his children.” -Peter Edge

“The best tag team of all time does it again. The best tag match ever.” -Lee Malone

“On 4 September 2019, Case Lowe wrote an article titled “Are we sure the Young Bucks aren’t the Greatest Tag Team Ever?” and I was one of the many people who replied in the comments… “Yes, we’re pretty sure”. Fast forward 2 years of peak tag wrestling in AEW and this match, and I’m not so sure anymore.” -PW_IND

“This is actually the sole tag match of my list – the Tag Match of the Year. Honestly, I don’t usually love these sorts of spot-eccentric matches, but for a reason I can’t quite put my finger on, I absolutely loved this steel cage fight. It’s an oddity to me that I can’t not rate this match so highly on my list. Somehow, it just hit the perfect spot.” -Jamie Johnson

“The crown jewel of AEW’s best pay-per-view show to date. Arguably, the greatest tag match in the young history of a company that made tag team wrestling a point of emphasis from day one. The greatest tag team in history (or at least the modern era) is bested by excellent opponents peaking at the right time. It might not be tag team perfection, but it might very well be the closest we’ll get for a long time.” -TDE
