Penta El Zero M Unmasks Himself, The Lucha Bros Retain AEW Tag Titles

Desperate times call for desperate measures, and the Lucha Brothers showcased that mentality Friday night on AEW Rampage.

The popular duo defended the AEW World Tag Team Championship against The Butcher and The Blade. Near the end of the match, the challengers tried to take Penta El Zero M out of the equation by tying is mask to the ropes. To escape, Penta surprisingly tore his own mask off and helped Rey Fenix secure the pin and the win.

Here’s how the match broke down, courtesy of our play-by-play coverage:

The Butcher and The Blade floor Penta and gang up on him. A cheap shot from Matt Hardy helps the challengers maintain the advantage. Fenix tags in and clears house; he gets a two count with a German suplex on The Blade. Fenix and Penta hit the Fear Factor, but The Butcher breaks up the pin.

The Blade gets a two count with a powerslam on Penta. The Blade ties Penta’s mask to the rope and takes him out of the equation. Fenix is left by himself, but Penta tears his own mask off to free himself and help Fenix get the pin.

Winners and still AEW World Tag Team Champions: The Lucha Brothers

Private Party and the rest of H.F.O. attack the champions after the match, but Santana and Ortiz make the save.

Santana and Ortiz saved the Lucha Brothers from a post-match assault at the hands of H.F.O., potentially setting up an eight-man tag team match.
