The Young Bucks Detail Their Hardys Match At AEW Double Or Nothing

The Young Bucks had some nerves before facing the Hardys on the major stage at AEW Double Or Nothing. The Bucks fought in a losing effort against Matt & Jeff Hardy in the second bout of the evening and post-fight, spoke with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated  not even 24 hours removed from their Double Or Nothing match against the Hardys. Matt and Nick Jackson first discussed growing up as fans of MHardys.

“It felt like every kid in high school dressed like them,” said Nick Jackson. “We had to secretly pretend we were too cool for school and didn’t like them. But I specifically remember choosing to play as them in the video games every time I was playing alone. We eventually gave in and admitted our fandom and dressed and wrestled like them in our homemade backyard wrestling ring. We then started an independent wrestling company just like they did. We’d eventually become a tag team just like them. We patterned everything in our career off of them.”

Matt and Nick later on went into detail about how during the 19-minute match they reacted to the packed house in the T-Mobile Arena.

“Most of the moments we knew exactly where we were going,” said Matt Jackson. “We’re driving the vehicle and taking the passengers on an up-and-down journey. There’s always great unexpected surprises though, and you just need to go with the flow. At one point the crowd started chanting for Brandon Cutler, and it gave us something to play with on the fly. It was like a little gift. There’s nothing better though when something you bet big on earlier, ends up paying off.”

“They’re the greatest in-ring tag team of all-time and the biggest box office, needle-moving, merch money-makers ever. So losing to them isn’t a tough pill to swallow.”

Nick made a tease that there will be more matches to come for the foursome.

“If we have anything to say about it, that was not the last time we’ll wrestle the Hardys.”
