Although The Young Bucks only just departed AEW TV, plans are already in place for their eventual return to the company.
The October 30th episode of Dynamite saw Matt and Nick Jackson lose their Tag Team Championship to Private Party. Following the loss, The Bucks declared that they would be “working at home.” In a follow-up report the next day, news broke that the AEW stars were set for a lengthy hiatus and that Nick had been working for weeks injured with a separated shoulder.
In a further update by Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, The Bucks are set to make a triumphant return down the road to save All Elite Wrestling from the chaos that has ensued from Jon Moxley and the rest of the Blackpool Combat Club. While no return date has been finalised, it is expected to be in 2024 as the tag team is scheduled for the crossover show Wrestle Dynasty in January 2025:
The Young Bucks did an angle after dropping the tag titles to Private Party where they were shredding papers and left to “work at home.” The idea is that Moxley’s group has caused so much chaos that it’s unsafe and they don’t want to get involved, with the idea of eventually coming back and saving AEW. Nick has a separated shoulder and has been working on it for weeks.
There is no set timetable for a return past it’ll be for a while, and they aren’t scheduled for the Full Gear show. It’ll be no longer than January since they are confirmed for the joint AEW & NJPW show at the Tokyo on 1/5
