Jungle Boy Explains Why He Didn’t Like The Way Jurassic Express Won AEW Tag Team Titles

On the January 5 episode of AEW Dynamite, Jurassic Express (Jungle Boy & Luchasaurus) won the AEW Tag Team Championships when they defeated The Lucha Bros (Penta El Zero M & Rey Fenix). 

The match is among Jungle Boy’s favorite in AEW, but he says he didn’t like the way it happened, noting the arm injury Fenix suffered as he went through a table. 

Speaking on Steven’s Wrestling Journey, Jungle Boy reflected on his three favorite matches in AEW. 

“My most memorable moments would be, the first tag team match we had in AEW, the very beginning. People just had such a great reaction to us being together and we had both been coming off the independents and had been working really hard to get signed and we were finally there. To have such a great response to what we were doing, felt really cool. Winning the tag team belts was really cool. I kind of didn’t like the way it happened, exactly, there was some stuff that went wrong at the end. Fenix got hurt, which is never nice, and there were some hijinx going on that I didn’t fully love. Still, to win the tag team belts in the best wrestling company in the world with my best friend was a really special experience. The last tag match we had, we ended up losing it and Christian ended up smashing my head with a chair right after, which wasn’t great, but the match before it, the ladder match with the Young Bucks, they are probably my favorite tag team to watch, they are amazing. We felt it was one of the best matches we ever had. It was really cool, after everything we had been through, to go out there with people we had watched and idolized, who were like mentors to us, to go out there and have this amazing match. What happened after has taken over, but we’ll always have that match. We came from, not even being a team, to being one of the top teams in the company. It’s been a cool ride,” he said. 

Jurassic Express lost the AEW Tag Team Titles to the Young Bucks on the June 15 episode of AEW Dynamite. Following the bout, Christian Cage turned on Jungle Boy. 

Jungle Boy finally got his hands on Christian this past Wednesday on AEW Dynamite. Fans can find Fightful’s full report on the show by clicking here.
