Dust off your boots and grab your finest cowboy neck scarf, because Dustin Rhodes and Sammy Guevara—aka the Sons of Texas—are officially heading to AEW Double or Nothing to challenge for the World Tag Team Championships. Y’all wanted a fight? Well, you’re getting one dipped in Lone Star grit and TikTok flips.
After making a surprise return to AEW (because why not pop in after snatching ROH gold like it’s a Black Friday sale), Rhodes and Guevara answered The Hurt Syndicate’s open challenge with the confidence of two men who’ve seen both rodeos and Revolutions. And after a high-octane slobberknocker against CRU’s Lio Rush and Action Andretti, the Sons secured their golden ticket.
The match began with the ROH champs in control, showing that age is just a number and tag psychology is forever. That is, until CRU said “no thanks” to nostalgia and started laying down spite like it was on clearance. Guevara got isolated faster than a new hire at a company potluck, and Rhodes was left trying to remember what year it was.
But just when things looked bleak—cue hot tag energy. Guevara managed to shake off the CRU control and connect the GTH (Go To Houston, probably?) on Andretti, while Rush arrived just milliseconds too late to make the save. The crowd exploded, the Sons stood tall, and now they’re booked for The Hurt Syndicate’s fifth title defense.
Will Sammy and Dustin bring the AEW Tag gold back to Texas? Or will Lashley and Benjamin continue stacking wins like a protein shake tower in catering? Either way, Double or Nothing just added another banger to the buffet.
