As great as Kenny Omega has been over the past year, he hasn't done it all by himself. After turning on Styles, Omega formed Bullet Club's "Elite" - a stable-within-a-stable comprised of himself and Matt and Nick Jackson, The Young Bucks.

For years, The Young Bucks have been one of the most exciting teams in wrestling, with an uncanny athleticism and an even more remarkable gimmick - the two brothers play obnoxious wrestling fans turned obnoxious indy stars. Whether they're throwing dozens of superkicks in a match or copying D-Generation X's mannerisms, they're catching the notice of fans.

They've also caught the notice of WWE, who's been interested in the tandem. Though they recently signed a new contract with Ring of Honor (one that'll allow them to work in New Japan and PWG), they've repeatedly said they'd join WWE if the money was right. In fact, they revealed in an interview that had they known Styles was joining the company a little earlier, they might have made the jump with him.

If Omega heads to WWE, that would be one more reason for The Young Bucks to follow.
