A brand new AEW tag team featuring a recently debuted star is getting high praise from veteran wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer. Jake Doyle, the previous Jake Something in TNA, debuted for AEW and joined the Don Callis Family on the primary “AEW Dynamite” of 2026. He and Mark Davis were immediately established as a tag team. The team are set to challenge FTR for the AEW World Tag Team Championships on this week’s “Dynamite,” and Meltzer said on “Wrestling Observer Radio” that it will be an interesting match.
“This can be a probability for Doyle and Davis to actually develop into stars, because this can be a match where it is not a 4 way,” Meltzer explained, citing a standard match type for the belts in AEW. “4 way’s tough, especially if you’re in there with just like the Young Bucks, and with JetSpeed… This one is like, it’s an everyday tag against an important team that can probably help make them.”
Davis and Doyle earned their shot on the tag gold by defeating three other times in a four-way tornado tag match on the January 14 edition of “Dynamite.” The defeated the Bucks, JetSpeed, and the Gates of Agony to earn the shot. After the match, Dax Harwood, Money Wheeler, and Stokely Hathaway got here out to confront the Don Callis Relations, and the teams brawled before being separated by security.
