The Young Bucks have been having a turbulent time in AEW recently, and amid their struggles, a top champion in the company asked the duo to join his faction.

Not long ago, The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) were among the most important figures in the Jacksonville-based promotion, serving as its EVPs. However, since losing their role at All In, the Bucks' standing within the company has dropped significantly, and they are now facing serious financial trouble. On the latest episode of their Being the Elite YouTube channel vlog, the former AEW Tag Team Champions were seen interacting with Kazuchika Okada, thanking the Unified Champion for letting them stay in his room, implying that no provisions had been made for them.

Meanwhile, Kazuchika, who is well aware of the Bucks' situation, first offered them money, which the brothers refused, before asking them to join the Don Callis Family.

"Maybe you guys should join the Don Callis Family? It's not so bad," said Okada

Tony Khan was reportedly planning to reunite Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks at AEW Full Gear

AEW wouldn't be what it is today without the efforts of three men: Kenny Omega, Matt Jackson, and Nick Jackson, collectively known as The Elite. That said, the three men no longer see eye to eye. However, Dave Meltzer on a recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio mentioned that Tony Khan might reunite them soon.

At Full Gear 2025, a trios match was confirmed between the Young Bucks teaming with Josh Alexander and Kenny Omega teaming with Jurassic Express (Jack Perry and Luchasaurus), with the winner getting one million dollars. According to Meltzer, Matt and Nick aren't too happy about facing the Cleaner, and the trio might reunite sooner rather than later, possibly around Full Gear.
