10 Worst AEW Booking Decisions

10. Conflicted Young Bucks

AEW fans will have varying degrees of patience for the melodrama often involved in the long-standing Elite drama between Kenny Omega, 'Hangman' Adam Page, and the Young Bucks. The story of the faction runs directly through the core of AEW so whether fans like it or not it is undeniably an intrinsic part of the promotion's identity.

The Young Bucks and FTR's bout at Full Gear 2020 was one of the most anticipated matches in AEW’s history, with the match itself living up to the huge expectations on the night. However, the conflicted attitude of the Bucks leading into the show was bizarre and quite distracting as Matt and Nick began acting poorly, most notably super-kicking the beloved Tony Schiavone.

The Bucks would turn heel after defeating FTR and winning the titles but their attitude before the match threatened to derail the face/heel dynamic of the feud. It only made the tandem look petulant as they sulked over their lack of success which was ridiculous when they were previously held in high esteem by the AEW audience.

Their ensuing title reign was one of the best in the company's history which does make this booking misstep more forgivable.
