Kyle and Takeshita were best friends, being an unstoppable force between them; Protoshita were the pinnacle of the The Don Callis Family, then Don Callis brought in Okada and tensions flared quickly. Okada brought the AEW International Title to the Family, and spurred the ire of Takeshita by reminding him who held the title every chance he could. Kyle tried to play the peace keeper, and was swooned into forming Protokada and getting some impressive wins. Eventually, Takeshita had taken enough. With Kyle missing due to injury and Don losing control, Takeshita called his shot for the AEW International Title and bested Okada before the rest of the Family turned on him. Kyle returned after months off, initially scaring off the attackers but ultimately turning on Takeshita himself and in time winning the title at Beach Break. Both Kyle and Takeshita have taken their shots at each other in the months since, leading to Takeshita demanding his owed rematch against his former ally. Don Callis, eager to improve the odds of the Family keeping the title, pointed out Okada never had his rematch and arranged this match to be a three-way. Kyle is distrustful of Okada, sensing he really just wants the title for himself, and frustrated that he can't leave Takeshita in the rear-view mirror. Can he make it out with his title? Will the numbers catch up with him? Will Kyle stay in the Family or could he reunite Protoshita once again?
