The Young Bucks Discuss Possibly Signing With WWE

The Young Bucks are one of the best tag teams in the wresting business that aren't employed by WWE. At least yet, anyway. The team took part in a Reddit Q&A where older brother Matt said a run in WWE NXT is possible:

€œA year ago, I would€™ve said no. But right now is a VERY interesting time. Anything can happen."

The team is comprised of brothers Matt and Nick Jackson. They are currently working for New Japan Pro Wresting, Ring of Honor and independent wresting shows all over the world. They worked for TNA Wresting in 2010-11, but they haven't worked for WWE as full timers yet. That may change according to their comments during the Q&A session. With regards to signing with WWE, Matt added that now would be a good time to do it:

€œIf it was ever going to happen anytime, it€™d be now. The business is changing. It€™s crazy. Anything can happen, and we€™re unsigned, so you never know.€

Nick also seemed open to the idea of going to WWE in the future:

€œOne day it€™s possible, but I don€™t know when. It might never happen and I€™d be fine with that but the wrestling landscape is changing and one day we might fit into their Tag Team division.€

Legend had it that The Young Bucks had a somewhat negative history with WWE because they apparently did a tryout in 2011 that didn't end well when they didn't shake hands with Booker T, who called them out on Twitter. Rob Van Dam also called them out saying they were cold to him in TNA. It's probably overblown, but that's what happens in wrestling sometimes. In terms of talent, they clearly deserve it. If WWE is going to be more open to signing top indy talent to help the NXT brand grow then they should definitely considering bringing in the Young Bucks.
