Dynamite Duumvirate Tag Team Title Tournament (2013) was the seventh Dynamite Duumvirate Tag Team Title Tournament (DDT4) produced by Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (PWG). The event took place on at the American Legion Post #308 in Reseda, California.
The PWG World Tag Team Championship was defended in the tournament. The title changed hands twice during the tournament. First, Unbreakable F'n Machines (Brian Cage and Michael Elgin) defeated the defending champions Super Smash Brothers (Player Uno and Stupefied) in the quarter-final round. And then, The Young Bucks defeated Unbreakable F'n Machines to win the titles in the semi-final round. Young Bucks would then win the 2013 tournament by defeating El Generico and Kevin Steen in the final, thus winning the tournament for the third time and reaching the DDT4 final for the fourth time. This was Generico's farewell match in PWG. Aside from the DDT4, two non-tournament matches took place in which Willie Mack defeated B-Boy and Drake Younger defeated Sami Callihan in a Knockout or Submission Only match, the second match in the Best of Three Series to determine the #1 contender for the PWG World Championship.
Production
Background
On December 2, 2012, PWG announced on its official Twitter account that the 2013 edition of DDT4 would take place on January 12, 2013.
Storylines
Original line-up
The previous year's winners the Super Smash Brothers (Player Uno and Stupefied) entered the DDT4 as the reigning and defending World Tag Team Champions. Other teams announced for the tournament were:
The Briscoe Brothers (Jay Briscoe and Mark Briscoe) DojoBros (Eddie Edwards and Roderick Strong) El Generico and Kevin Steen Future Shock (Adam Cole and Kyle O'Reilly) The Inner City Machine Guns (Rich Swann and Ricochet) Unbreakable F'n Machines (Brian Cage and Michael Elgin) The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson)
Replacement
While originally being announced for DDT4, El Generico was forced to pull out of the tournament due to injury. Willie Mack was named his replacement as Kevin Steen's partner, but this once again changed on January 9, when PWG announced that Generico, in the midst of reports that he had signed with WWE, would be teaming with Steen.
Non-tournament matches
At Mystery Vortex, Sami Callihan defeated Drake Younger in the first match of the Best of Three Series between the two to determine the #1 contender for the PWG World Championship. It was later announced that the second match of the series would take place at DDT4.
Event
Quarterfinals
The tournament kicked off with a match between The Inner City Machine Guns (Rich Swann and Ricochet) and The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson). Matt blocked a standing 450° splash by Swann with his knees and pinned him with a cradle for the win.
Next, Super Smash Brothers (Player Uno and Stupefied) defended the PWG World Tag Team Championship against Unbreakable F'N Machines (Brian Cage and Michael Elgin). Uno suffered a separated shoulder during the match which came into play when Super Smash Brothers tried to deliver a Fatality (Gory Bomb by Uno and diving somersault cutter by Stupefied combination) to Elgin, allowing Elgin to deliver an Elgin Bomb to Stupefied for the win. As a result, Unbreakable F'N Machines won the World Tag Team Championship.
Next, Dojo Bros (Eddie Edwards and Roderick Strong) took on Future Shock (Adam Cole and Kyle O'Reilly). Edwards and O'Reilly were knocked out of the ring after Edwards delivered a superplex to O'Reilly, allowing Cole to hit Strong with the PWG World Championship title belt and pin him for the win.
Next, El Generico and Kevin Steen took on The Briscoe Brothers (Jay Briscoe and Mark Briscoe). Generico and Steen had a miscommunication after Generico was about to accidentally hit a Yakuza Kick, which led to both of them shoving each other out and Steen getting knocked out of the ring. Briscoe Brothers capitalized and tried to hit an electric chair and springboard lariat combination on Generico but Generico countered by pinning Jay with a victory roll.
Semifinals
The semifinal of DDT4 began with Unbreakable F'N Machines defending the World Tag Team Championship against The Young Bucks. Michael Elgin tried to deliver an Elgin Bomb to Matt Jackson, but Nick Jackson rolled him up, allowing Matt to lay on top of Elgin and pin him for the win. As a result, Young Bucks won the World Tag Team Championship.
