The Young Bucks Welcome Kazuchika Okada to The Elite – The landscape of The Elite underwent a seismic shift on the latest episode of AEW Dynamite, as the Young Bucks, Matthew and Nicholas Jackson, unveiled Kazuchika Okada as their newest ally. Okada’s arrival marked a significant moment in AEW history, with the iconic wrestler joining forces with the renowned faction, “The Elite”.
The announcement came on the heels of the Young Bucks revealing the expulsion of “Hangman” Adam Page from The Elite and the termination of Kenny Omega’s association with the group. With these changes, Okada’s addition added a new dynamic to The Elite’s roster, signaling a bold new direction for the faction.
Following the revelation, the Young Bucks took to social media to amplify the excitement surrounding Okada’s arrival. Describing him as the “biggest signing in AEW history,” the Young Bucks shared a snapshot of themselves alongside Okada, adopting a playful nod to wrestling tradition with their finger-pointing pose.
Additionally, in a digital exclusive, the Young Bucks discussed the eventful night.
Nicholas Jackson: That was a tough decision that we had to make out there live on television.
Matthew Jackson: It’s really hard when you have to make an executive decision like that, but you gotta do what’s best for business. So I hope Hangman and Kenny understand. I mean, hey guys, you’re not here, so sorry, we gotta move on. We gotta get to the next thing. We can’t leave money on the table. Speaking of money, [gestures at Okada]
NJ: Ladies and gentlemen, this might be the biggest signing in AEW history.
MJ: Might? Maybe? No, no, no. He is the biggest.
Matthew and Nicholas then praised Okada and highlighted his star power. The duo noted that Okada had even more money now, as they connected him with Barry Bloom. They then emphasized that he was a good human being, and they wanted people like that in The Elite.
MJ: The guy back here, we’re talking about movie star good looks, rockstar charisma. This guy, look at him. Just so charming and so humble. You would never know that he’s the greatest wrestler of all time just by looking at him. He’s so sweet. He’s a sweetheart. He’s a good kid.
NJ: This guy can’t walk into a 7-Eleven in Japan or in Tokyo or anywhere out there because he’ll be signing autographs for days.
MJ: Guess what? He’s a millionaire now. A multi-millionaire.
NJ: Well, he already was a millionaire. Guess what? He’s even richer.
MJ: We hooked him up with our agent, Barry Bloom.
NJ: For shoot.
MJ: So he’s got even more money. I know he’s happy. He’s having a great time. What a good kid, though. I can’t wait for the future. I’m excited for what’s next.
NJ: Rumor has it he’s gonna buy himself a Ferrari.
MJ: A red one. Because he left the other one in Japan.
NJ: He gave it to his father because he is a good human being. That’s who we want. We want those types in The Elite.
Matthew reiterated that what they did to Page and Omega was difficult, but they had to do what was best for business. He stated that they could not leave money on the table. Nicholas noted that they were trying to make the locker room the safest one in the business. Matthew again said that he was excited about the future.
MJ: What I had to do today was really difficult, it really hurt my feelings and my self-esteem. I hate doing that to friends. Kenny Omega, Hangman Page, you guys are businessmen. I know that you understand what happened out there because you’re businessmen. You can’t leave money on the table. Kenny, I don’t know where the hell you are. But Hangman, you can’t put your hands on the referees. Come on.
NJ: As bosses, as executives, we have to be fair around.
MJ: We can’t be biased. There’s no favoritism in this locker room. We have to look out for the young guys.
NJ: You know what? We’re still trying to make this place, this locker room the safest in the business. I guess [we’re] getting closer and closer.
MJ: How do you change the world? You sign The Rainmaker. This is what we do. I’m excited for the future.
NJ: I’m super excited.
As AEW continues to evolve, Okada’s presence promises to shake up the landscape of professional wrestling, ushering in a new era of competition and camaraderie within The Elite.
