Prior to their signings, Aussie Open had made several appearances for AEW since their official debut in the company this past June.
In regards to Aussie Open’s status with New Japan Pro Wrestling, the team recently relinquished both their IWGP Tag Team and NJPW Strong Openweight Tag Team Championships due to Davis suffering a recent knee injury and had underwent surgery to repair it.
