Last Saturday was the debut of AEW’s new show, “Collision” on TNT and during the episode Luchasaurus defeated Wardlow to become the new AEW TNT Champion. It’s worth noting that after defeating Luchasaurus, Christian Cage acted like he was the one who did all the work and was the new champion. Anyway, after the win, Luchasaurus’ new former tag team partner and rival “Jungle Boy” Jack Perry seemed to react.
“Congratulations…” Perry tweeted.
Congrats…

The one-time tag team held the AEW Tag Team Titles for over 160 days last year. After Cage turned on Perry on the June 15, 2022 edition of AEW “Dynamite”, Luchasaurus followed a week later on the June 29 episode. The feud saw the two face each other in a Steel Cage match in November 2022 at AEW Full Gear. Perry would go on to win the match, but a month earlier on the October 10, 2022 edition of Dynamite, Luchasaurus got the upper hand.
Perry has since found a new tag team partner in Hook as JungleHook. The partnership began last year at Winter is Coming and lasted almost until the end of January. The two reunited last month on the May 31 episode of “Dynamite,” which Perry later announced was the “Summer of JungleHook.”
In addition to feuding with Cage and Lucchasaur, Perry was recently part of the AEW World Title picture at AEW Double or Nothing — alongside Darby Allyn and Sami Guevara. In the end, MJF still managed to retain the AEW World Championship.
