The Opps were able to retain the AEW Trios Championships during AEW: All In 2025 as they opened the show against The Death Riders. The match was solid, but the major story is going to be what exactly happened after the match. Let’s take a deeper dive into what happened and what it means going forward for the remainder of the show.

The Opps Retain AEW Trios Championships

The Opps were able to retain their AEW World Trios Championships to open up the PPV against Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Yuta, and Gabe Kidd. While the match was solid as Samoa Joe won the match with the Muscle Buster on Wheeler Yuta, the main story is what happened after the match. After the match, the Death Riders would attack The Opps and put a steel chair around Joe’s head before Castagnoli would jump from the top rope on it.

The move would send AEW medical officials to the ring and place Joe on a stretcher. With The Opps being on ‘Hangman’ Adam Page’s side ahead of the AEW World Championship Texas Death Match against the leader of The Death Riders and current champion Jon Moxley, this gives the opportunity for The Death Riders to have an advantage going into the main event. Gabe Kidd was able to look strong throughout the match and now with the number’s game being on the side of the heels, it will be interesting to see what happens.

While many were anticipating a return of Hook, who has been out of action for a while, we did not see Hook make an appearance throughout the match or the post-match attack. It will be interesting to see how this match plays into the main event but The Opps are still the AEW World Trios Champions.
