On this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite, The Young Bucks captured the AEW Tag Team Championship for the second time. The Bucks beat Jurassic Express in a ladder match that was initially supposed to include The Hardys.



The Hardys were removed from the match following Jeff Hardy’s most recent arrest and subsequent suspension. According to <a href="https://www.f4wonline.com/news/aew/jeff-hardys-scheduled-brain-scan-led-to-change-in-aew-tag-team-title-plans" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">Brian Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter</a>, the original plans were for the Hardys to win the tag titles.



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">“The idea was the Hardys were going to win the tag titles in this ladder match, that was the plan for a while,&#8221; Alvarez said.</blockquote>



However, AEW had reportedly become concerned about Jeff after he and Matt faced off against the Young Bucks at Double or Nothing. This led to plans being changed with The Bucks getting the win over Jurassic Express.



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">&#8220;At the pay-per-view [Double or Nothing], when the Hardys and the Bucks had their match, Jeff was not looking good. Apparently, they examined him afterward and he was all beat up and he didn&#8217;t remember the match,&#8221; said Alvarez.</blockquote>



During his arrest, Jeff had told the officers that he was on his way to get a brain scan. Alvarez confirmed that that was the case and the scan follows concerns that were raised after Double Or Nothing.



While the Hardys were not going to initially be pulled from the match, they would not have been allowed to compete.



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">“They were going to do the angle where he and Matt were going to be coming out for the ladder match, they were going to be jumped on the ramp and they were going to be carted off and they weren&#8217;t actually going to do the match,” said Alvarez.</blockquote>
