10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (May 15)

10. The Young Bucks Turn Down TNA

Perhaps the best aspect of The Young Bucks is that their arrogance correctly comes across even through social media, something which makes them really difficult to identify with and like. The in-ring talent of the brothers cannot be denied, but the inflated opinion they have of themselves must surely be embellished for the benefit of the fans. Since 2013, both Matt and Nick have represented the Bullet Club in New Japan Pro Wrestling, a heel faction primarily made up of talent not emanating from Japan. The group are often praised for their work, and it's a credit to The Young Bucks that in 2014 they held the ROH, PWG and IWGP Tag-Team Titles all at the same time - the Bucks are definitely one of the more respected teams in the industry today. This has caught the eye of TNA management, who were interested in bringing the duo into the promotion once again. Both brothers were fairly critical of TNA following an extended run there from 2009-2011, but they did make a brief return in 2013. It seems the interest was very one-sided, The Young Bucks have reportedly knocked back the offer full stop, meaning they won't be making a comeback to the Impact Zone.
