In an AEW storyline focused on eliminating “toxicity” from the locker room, executive vice presidents Nicholas and Matthew Jackson, also known as The Young Bucks, have been taking action against key AEW figures, including termination, suspension, and physical attacks on company President Tony Khan. Their reign of dominance will be tested when they face Bryan Danielson, Darby Allin, and FTR at AEW Double or Nothing on May 26. Tommy Dreamer, the ECW legend, shared his insights on the upcoming match and the long-term arc of The Young Bucks’ storyline on “Busted Open Radio.”
Dreamer stated, “I believe that the villains should emerge victorious at Double or Nothing. If the heroes win, the storyline might lose its steam. It’s important to consider long-range planning to maintain the strength of the villains and progress towards significant events like WarGames or Tony Khan reclaiming control of the company. An impactful conclusion could involve Tony Khan retaliating against The Young Bucks, providing closure to the narrative.”
Although the future direction for The Young Bucks post-Double or Nothing remains uncertain, former Elite member Kenny Omega has shown interest in reigniting his rivalry with Okada. However, recent developments indicate a strained relationship between Omega and his former allies in The Elite.
