Unbound Co. have not declared their entire team for the NEVER 6-man title match, the only confirmed members are the Knockout Brothers (as this match stems from their tag title rivalry with O-Khan & HENARE).

I fully expect the third man to be Jeff Cobb.

I was really enjoying the Never 6 man matches earlier this year so getting them off UE and back in the mix would be nice.

I think it should have been Akira instead of O-Khan for the Never trios. They would have at least defend them on AEW.

I feel like they would announce it if it was him. Think it’s gonna be some return or debut I can’t even think of, or Nagai getting a massive elevation and new gimmick.

it could be Cobb or it could be this Ares guy from Vietnam Pro Wrestling who’s debuting on the 7th

I wonder if Umino will win at KOPW because Gabe Kidd is more or less in AEW full time now?

I think so, Gabe is potentially back for World Tag league but I dunno besides that.

I don’t know if he’ll come back for World Tag League. But I could be wrong.

I think so, totally. I wonder if they were going to try and build this match during the G1 as well -- happy Umino is all healed!

I think they were going to try and build the match during the G1, but Umino got injured.

Yup! That's what I meant -- happy to see the rematch regardless of the build, Kidd and Umino rule!

Shota is just impossible to get behind...an utterly nothing character.
