#4 AEW's The Young Bucks mock WWE over reported changes in NXT

AEW Tag Team Champions, The Young Bucks, recently updated their Twitter bio to take shots at WWE. This time it was over the reported changes that Vince McMahon is planning for NXT.

Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter reported that Mr. McMahon doesn't want any "midgets" or older wrestlers in NXT's top ranks. Instead, the black and gold brand will shift its focus towards churning out talent capable of becoming major stars on the main roster.

“The wording is ‘no more midgets, no one starting in their 30s, they want people who can be box office attractions and main characters,” said Dave Meltzer. (h/t WrestlingNews)

The Young Bucks wasted no time in throwing shade at the news, changing their bio to take a dig at WWE.

"Very tall. Not in our 30's," said The Young Bucks in their new Twitter bio.

The AEW Tag Team champions have made it their gimmick to mock everyone they can through their bio. This fits in well with the current persona they are depicting on AEW.
