The Young Bucks Name New Day And Revival As Dream Opponents
The Young Bucks are considered by many to be the best tag team in the world, though there are plenty of teams that would take exception to that accolade.
Tag team wrestling is as healthy as it’s ever been with New Day, Revival, Usos, Proud N Powerful, SCU, The North, Briscoes, Lethal & Gresham, and many more being able to lay claim to the “best tag team in the world” moniker. And Matt & Nick Jackson would like to settle the score once and for all against at least two of those teams.
“I would say The Elite vs. New Day because that is something that was actually close to happening at one point, but it never actually happened. If that six-man happened, it would have tore the house down,” Nick told ESPN West Palm when asked about potential dream matches.
The Elite and New Day competed in a Street Fighter battle, but never in an in-ring bout.
Matt stated, “The obvious one is us and The Revival. I feel like there’s some real-life tension there. I don’t know if it’s competitive or friendly but there’s definitely a competitive rivalry. Talk about two teams that have polar opposite of styles. I think it’d be a fun styles clash. I’d love to have that match. That’s probably number one on my bucket list.”
The Revival and Young Bucks have teased a match and feuded on social media for years with #FTR becoming a knock against Scott Dawson & Dash Wilder (Fuck The Revival) or a show of support (Forever The Revival).
The Young Bucks will battle three other top teams on Wednesday’s AEW Bash at the Beach when they face Kenny Omega & Hangman Page, The Best Friends, and Proud N Powerful in a AEW Tag Team Title number one contenders match.
