The Creed Brothers Make Shocking AEW Debut Under New Names At Full Gear 2026

Former WWE tag team The Creed Brothers have officially arrived in All Elite Wrestling under brand-new ring names.

Julius and Brutus Creed made an unannounced debut as Jacob and Drew Casper during AEW Full Gear 2026, launching a post-match assault on two top teams before aligning with FTR.

Post-Match Chaos Following The Tag Team Title Bout

The surprise arrival unfolded immediately after The Young Bucks secured the AEW World Tag Team Championships against Jake Doyle and Mark Davis. Following the conclusion of the title match, the Motor City Machine Guns entered the ring to shake hands with Matt and Nick Jackson, raising their arms in a mutual display of respect.

That moment was abruptly cut short when unfamiliar entrance music hit the arena:

  • The Assault: Julius and Brutus Creed, newly introduced as Jacob and Drew Casper, rushed the ring and attacked both The Young Bucks and the Motor City Machine Guns.
  • FTR’s Arrival: After the newcomers laid out both teams, Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler walked down to the ring. Rather than confronting the attackers, FTR welcomed the Casper Brothers, signaling a new alliance between the two tandems.

Background On The Creed Brothers’ WWE Departure

The debut at Full Gear comes shortly after the brothers were quietly moved to the Alumni section on WWE’s official website, a move that had sparked questions regarding their status with the company. Neither competitor had publicly addressed their departure prior to appearing on the AEW pay-per-view.

Before joining All Elite Wrestling, the duo compiled a notable run under the WWE banner:

  • Final WWE Appearance: They last competed on NXT television on October 20, falling to Hank Walker and Tank Ledger in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic.
  • WWE Accomplishments: During their tenure, they captured the NXT Tag Team Championships and competed on Monday Night RAW as members of the American Made faction alongside Chad Gable.

Major Impact On The AEW Tag Team Division

By targeting both the reigning AEW World Tag Team Champions and the Motor City Machine Guns on their very first night, Jacob and Drew Casper have immediately positioned themselves at the center of the tag team picture. With FTR standing alongside them, the newly formed alliance has put the entire AEW tag division on notice heading into upcoming episodes of Dynamite and Collision.
