The Young Bucks on Idea Of Them Running An Indie Promotion After Their In-Ring Careers Are Over, Their Evil EVPs Characters, Being Involved in Sting’s Retirement Match, & AEW Had Plans for Golden Lovers vs. Young Bucks Prior to Kota Ibushi’s Broken Femur Injury

A recent Q&A Mailbag episode of Being The Elite featured The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson) answering several fan questions. One of the topics discussed included The Young Bucks’ thoughts about the potential of them running their own indie promotion after their in-ring wrestling careers are over.

Nick Jackson – “No.”

Matt Jackson – “Hell no.”

Nick – “Nah, you know what? I say that now but, I think I’ve always envisioned running a smaller independent company maybe. Not even a company. Maybe just spot shows, here and there.”

Matt – “I can see us doing something eventually. I’ve talked about this before. We’ll see. If you ask me right now, I’d be like, no… But if you ask me in a few weeks, I’ll be like, maybe, and then in a couple months, yeah, for sure. So you’re just gonna get a different answer every day.”

Matt also gave his thoughts about The Young Bucks’ “Evil EVPs” characters and how he had so much fun doing it.

“I had so much fun doing the ‘Evil E.V.P.’ gimmick. Every week, we try to come up with something clever, something funny… Every week though, it’s like, what could we do to further this storyline? What funny things can we do to mess with production? It was always a good time and hilarious, and just a really fun year — to do something different too… We’re like, ‘This is something completely different’ so that was really fun.”

The Young Bucks also gave their thoughts about them getting to be involved in Sting’s final match of his in-ring wrestling career.

Nick – “For me, right off the bat, just because we recently did an interview for this, the entire Sting, Darby Allin feud. One of my favorite moments in my entire — not even just wrestling career — my life — was being in the middle of the ring and having that match with those two. It was unbelievable.”

Matt – “The whole buildup to that match is really special. Just like Nick said, we were talking about it and reminiscing it… It is one of my favorite programs we’ve ever done too.”

Nick also gave his thoughts about how AEW had plans for a match to take place between them and the Golden Lovers (Kenny Omega & Kota Ibushi) prior to Ibushi suffering a broken femur injury.

“A proposed match that never happened? The Golden Lovers… It was actually supposed to happen pretty recently but, he had a really bad leg break. We were supposed to do Kenny (Omega) and (Kota) Ibushi at… when was it? Not Revolution. Where the heck was it? It was a couple months ago… We end up doing a six-man tag.”
