The Young Bucks recently explained the reasoning behind their unexpected alliance with Jon Moxley and the Death Riders faction. Speaking on “Close-Up with Renee Paquette,” the brothers said they came to realize they had a shared spirit.
Nick Jackson noted that they saw the positive effect Moxley had on the company. “Business is up when Jon Moxley’s the world heavyweight champion. Maybe he has something that he’s right about,” he said.
Matt Jackson added, “It was us sitting at home and going ‘Woah, I think the Death Riders and The Elite have more in common than even we realize. Jon’s a day-one guy, just like us. Jon’s an outlaw and rebel, just like us… I think we have the same spirit.”
