The Young Bucks respond to CM Punk.
On the premiere episode of AEW Collision on June 16, CM Punk said that Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav calls him, "One Bill Phil because he's the "one true bill in an industry of counterfeit bucks."
The line was seemingly shot at the Young Bucks, who have a contentious relationship with Punk stemming from the altercation following AEW All Out 2022 where Punk reportedly threw a punch aimed at Matt or Nick Jackson. Punk also made disparaging remarks towards the Bucks and their friends Kenny Omega and Hangman Page in the All Out media scrum.
Taking to social media, the Young Bucks changed their bio to acknowledge the "counterfeit bucks" line.
"If it were 2018, we’d already have a “Counterfeit Bucks” shirt available on PWT. -- Kill it y’all!"
