Former WWE wrestlers win AJPW Tag Team Championships

  • Ian Carey

Xyon Quinn and Odyssey Jones are the new AJPW World Tag Team Champions.

Wrestling under the names Xyon and Odyssey, they defeated Hideki Suzuki and Kengo Mashimo on Tuesday’s event at Arena Tachikawa Tachihi in Tachikawa, Tokyo. Xyon scored the pin on Suzuki following a flying headbutt.

Odyssey Jones was removed from WWE’s roster in September 2024, with reports later attributing the release to domestic violence allegations made by a former girlfriend. At the time, Jones was part of a developing storyline with The New Day’s Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods. He made his All Japan debut last month as part of the 2025 Ōdō Tournament. Alongside Xyon and Shotaro Ashino, he is now part of the “Havoc” stable in the promotion.

Xyon Quinn (Daniel Vidot) signed with WWE in 2018 and remained with the company until his release in 2024. He is the former fiance of AEW’s Harley Cameron.
