MJF: New People And Fans Should Be Showing The Young Bucks The Respect They Earned

MJF gives the Young Bucks their flowers.

The Young Bucks (Matthew Jackson and Nicholas Jackson) have been with AEW from the start, as they helped found the company. They are currently in their third reign as the AEW World Tag Team Champions, and they have cemented themselves as one of the top tag teams in modern history. However, they are also a controversial duo, as some have been critical of their style and their antics.

Speaking with WrestleTalk, MJF praised the Young Bucks and commented on potentially working with them.

"I’m going to do something I rarely do, and I’m going to put them over. They are innovators. The company does not exist without them. There are a lot of people that come into All Elite Wrestling, this company has been around for over five years now, I was there since before day one. I was at All In before the company even existed. I’m one of the few left that was a genuine day one guy. I was in the first match in AEW history, the Casino Battle Royale where I defeated Hangman Page and cut a great promo on Bret Hart. None of that happens without Matt and Nick Jackson. I think it’s unfortunate that, if new people come into my company, they should be showing them that respect that they earned and deserves. I feel the fans should be showing them that respect they earned and deserved. Would I work with them in a capacity where I feel we could mutually benefit from a business point of view? I struggle with trust. Especially after what Adam Cole did to me. Horrible guy. We can all agree on that, right? I don’t see a long-term business relationship, but I would interested, intrigued, in a short-term business relationship that I think would benefit both parties," MJF said.

Matthew Jackson previously said that the Young Bucks would get their flowers at their gravesides. Check out his comments here.
