I think you can guess which way this poll is going to go. Should be interesting to see how Evans and Angelico take getting snubbed from the tournament, and if it leads to heat with Boy and his Dinosaur.

Seems like a nice way to build up the continuing heelness of Angelico/Evans who were already shouting about how "being good/nice" got them nothing after the loss to Private Party. They can easily transition into the fans betraying them/their talents with an honest to goodness real poll.

This kinda sucks for me becausd those are my two fav teams in the roster Tells you a lot that my favorites are winless and im not unhappy

I love the team of A Boy and his Dinosaur and I love they're winning the poll, but I don't know whether I want them to win the tournament, or have heels win the tournament and have Luchasaurus and Jungle Boy on a big underdog title chase where they eventually win.

Jericho has won the World. Nyla Rose will likeky win the woman tktle since Riho isnt even full time. A face winning one of the titles would be nice

I'm kind of mixed in that this is a great way to set up a feud between the teams, but really I don't at all want that and would a lot rather have Boy and His Dinosaur win the tournament. Although really from day one I've been expecting the finals to be the Bucks against the Dark Order anyway if only because it's the lamest possible option.

So we assume seven teams in the tourney (since Dark Order gets a bye)?
Giving us a likely: Dark Order Best Friends Young Bucks Lucha Bros Private Party Boy + Dino SCU or a Strong Hearts combo?
No LAX?

No LAX? I could see them holding off LAX from the tournament itself, since it means they don't have to take a loss exiting the tournament, and building them on matches occurring outside the tournament, like the Chris Jericho and 2 partners vs. The Elite match that is upcoming.

Yeah, that's what I expect. It'd also be counterintuitive to just give them an entry into the tournament despite never having an AEW match yet.

Is there a name for LAX yet?
On the PPV they called them “The Boricuas,” but I was unsure if that was because it was gonna be their actual name or just because they’re Puerto Rican dudes.
“Santana and Ortiz” would be fine.

They're going with "Proud N Powerful" as a tentative name, likely going by "PNP" for short more often. Some feds are still booking them as LAX even though I think Impact owns the name, which is why they can't use it in AEW.

Unless Konnan trademarked it himself, they would be fair game to use it in AEW. I think AEW just wanted to establish them as there own deal, as there’s been a bunch of LAX teams

I'd rather they not use LAX, as I always relate that to the Konnan, Homicide and Hernandez team, but I really, really hope they don't stick with Proud n Powerful as a name. Good lord that is just down right terrible.

The tournament semi finals are week 4 of tv with the finals week 5, right?
So I guess the tournament is just gonna be 6 teams plus the Dark Order. - Young Bucks - Private Party - Luchasaurus & Jungle Boy are confirmed.
Who would be the other 3 so? Best Friends, SCU, & Lucha Bros?

Best Friends, SCU, & Lucha Bros? Best Friends are pretty much confirmed since they were also competing for the "bye". SCU has also confirmed they will be in it ,in a post-match interview
