In recent months there’s been a lot of talk about where The Elite would end up in the coming months, but all of the rumors were put to rest last week when it was announced that all four members of The Elite have signed new multi-year contracts with AEW.
The Young Bucks recently opened up about their decision to sign new deals on the Swerve City Podcast and Matt Jackson explained that The Elite decided to negotiate together, but they weren’t always on the same page throughout the decision making process.
“We didn’t know. I don’t read any of it, but I know [people] are thinking oh, how surprising The Elite re-signed. Bro, we didn’t even know if we were going to re-sign…we all negotiated together as a team.”
“The votes did not line up every time,” Matt continued. “There were a lot of emotions in the last year, as the world knows, so one day this person’s voting to leave, this person’s voting to go. We weren’t even on the same page the whole time.”
Nick went on to say that at one point his brother Matt considered retiring from wrestling completely instead of signing a deal with either WWE or AEW.
“I had to talk him out of that,” Nick said.
The Young Bucks will be in action this week on AEW Dynamite as they’re currently set to face off against The Hardys. Stay tuned for updates.
