Wheeler Yuta has enjoyed considerable success in recent years, boasting three ROH Pure Championship reigns and one AEW World Trios Championship. Now, he’s aiming for a new goal: capturing the AEW World Tag Team Championships alongside fellow Death Rider, Daniel Garcia.
In a recent interview with “The Wrestling Classic,” Yuta discussed the possibility of teaming up with Garcia to pursue the tag team titles. He expressed how well they connect, describing their partnership as seamless and enjoyable due to their similar wrestling styles and perspectives. Yuta emphasized that teaming with Garcia has been a blast and hopes to continue chasing tag team gold together.
Currently, The Young Bucks hold the AEW World Tag Team Championships, having begun their fourth reign at AEW All Out 2026. They are set to defend their titles at the upcoming AEW WrestleDream 2026 against Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight from the Don Callis Family, who earned their shot by defeating Darby Allin and Steven Borden. Neither Yuta nor Garcia, nor any member of the Death Riders, have held AEW tag team titles so far, but that’s something they clearly want to change moving forward.

Fan Take: This development is exciting for wrestling fans because it hints at fresh, dynamic competition in AEW’s tag team division, which has been dominated by The Young Bucks for some time. If Wheeler Yuta and Daniel Garcia succeed, it could inject new energy into tag team wrestling and elevate the profile of the Death Riders faction in the sport.
