The Young Bucks are no longer the “Broke Bucks.” On the September 10 edition of AEW Dynamite, Matt and Nick Jackson were on the winning side of a massive ten-man tag team match where a $500,000 prize was on the line. The victory is a significant storyline development for the brothers, who have been lamenting their loss of power and financial status ever since they were stripped of their Executive Vice President titles after their loss at the All In: Texas pay-per-view in July. This huge payday could mark a major turning point for their characters as they head into the fall season.
The main event of the evening saw The Young Bucks team with the Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, & Wheeler Yuta) to face the combined forces of The Opps (Samoa Joe, Powerhouse Hobbs, & Katsuyori Shibata) and the new AEW World Tag Team Champions, Brodido (Bandido & Brody King). In the chaotic conclusion of the match, Matt Jackson was able to secure a pinfall on Bandido, using the ropes for leverage to get the win for his team and claim the half-million-dollar prize. The victory also continues a recent hot streak for the former three-time AEW World Tag Team Champions, as it marks their third consecutive win on television, giving them significant momentum after their recent struggles.
