Before AEW I hadn't seen much of these two & now they are just about my favorite tag team in all of wrestling. I love how they straddle the line between goofy & serious. They seem to have had great chemistry with everyone they have worked with in AEW & I look forward to the eventual Tag Title win.

Loved them in TNA but feel they are a little underwhelming right now in AEW
They came in hot feuding with the Bucks but have trailed off a bit in more of a lackey role. They haven't been a serious threat for the tag titles in a while so hopefully that changes because those dudes are great

Love them, particularly Ortiz who does comedy so well, but at the same time still feels unhinged enough to feel dangerous.

I remember ,when theyw ere still LAX, they ahd A LOT of hype behind then.To the point I was expecting then to be overhyped and I would be disappointed.
Nope,the Bucks match blew my mind and I was 100% behind then

Love them too. I always thought they were good workers, but their personalities are just so featured in the Inner Circle.
Ortiz in particular has been such a revelation for me. Eating chicken, Tiger Style, We lied. He brings me joy when I see him show up, and that's so hard to do as a comedy heel.

Santana is the "least" comedy but he is an amazing straight man that is willing to go along with the crazyness,he is kinda like the big brother of the group. |

Got to see VERY little of their stuff in their last days in TNA, been a fan since they showed up in AEW
Santana showed some good intensity during that Moxley feud where both of them lost an eye.
Ortiz is pure comedy whenever he's on the screen.
And their theme music is dope too

They're terrific characters and beasts in the ring. They're the kind of guys who can take some losses and then easily turn it back on with a push and make it work. I think it's just not their time right now but my hope is that they'll get a title match before the end of the year.

Don't know if they'll win the belts this year, but it'd be astonishing if they don't get a title shot. |

Had no prior knowledge of them prior to AEW aside from a video clip here or there. They quickly won me over. Ortiz is one of the most entertaining wrestlers I've seen in years. Loved him selling getting sent to the back earlier this by Aubrey Edwards.

They are a class act in and out the ring.
Ortiz is perfect with the over the top mannerisms and Santana is a great foil as the straight man.
Helps that they can not go in the ring as well.

I haven't seen them before they arrived in AEW these guys are great Should definitely check out their work in Impact/TNA, particularly their feuds with the OGz & Lucha Bros. |

I loved these two since I saw them as LAX in Impact and they're killing it in AEW, I, as many people have said on this thread, that they have a fine balance between being borderline comedic heels, but they're so unhinged that you don't have a problem believing that they could f*** you up. Honestly, if they ever do split from the Inner Circle, part of me wants to see them get with Eddie Kingston, because I'd f***ing love to see Kingston in AEW.

Man, how I wish Eddie Guerrero was still alive to do even just a promo or skit with these dudes. I think they'd gel so easily. Ortiz in particular is so freakin' good to me because one minute he can be a goof with Santana as his straight man. Next he can be deadly serious. Great wrestlers in the ring, too.
I think they'd also make for easy-to-root-for faces when/if the Inner Circle blows up.

Santana killed it on Dark this week. I have never seen him that intense and vicious. It's a good look for the next push.

That Dark match was great. I love how funny the team can be, but I think it was time for a reminder of what these guys can do when they're deadly serious.
