Their third reign is the longest of the championships in the company with 261 days total. They lost the titles to The North and finished up with IMPACT just weeks ago when they faced Willie Mack and Rich Swann in a friendly bout to end their time there.<\/p>\n<p>The addition of Santana and Ortiz to the already stacked tag team division of AEW was an exciting one, and their addition to this match makes the main event of AEW&#8217;s first show on TNT a can&#8217;t-miss one. The gripe could be real for them as well as they are not including in the AEW Tag Team Championship Tournament, but if they are able to help the AEW World Champion Chris Jericho get a victory over the original Elite, they are sure to jump to the front of the line when the tournament concludes.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned to the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/lastwordonprowrestling.com\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a>\u00a0for more on this and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
