In the year 2018, the tag team scene in the Professional Wrestling world has certainly been elevated to the very next level and one of the most consisting tag teams throughout these past few years has definitely been the duo of Matt and Nick Jackson, The Young Bucks.
Despite having to face a lot of criticism for their unique and different in-ring style, there is certainly no doubt in the fact that both Matt and Nick Jackson have contributed a lot to tag team wrestling, thanks to their performances for New Japan Pro Wrestling, Ring of Honor Wrestling, and the Independent circuit as well.
Having competed for two of the world’s biggest promotions in NJPW and ROH, The Jackson Brothers have been frequently linked to a potential dream move to the WWE, however, as of right now, both Matt and Nick have apparently pledged their loyalty to ROH and NJPW. But, regardless of that, it is undeniable that The Young Bucks could very well jump ship to the WWE at some point in their careers down the line.
If The Young Bucks do arrive in the WWE in the near future, then there are plenty of dream matches and feuds we would like to see Matt and Nick Jackson engage with and therefore, here are top 10 dream feuds for The Young Bucks in WWE.
#10 The Young Bucks vs The Authors of Pain
In the past, The Young Bucks have definitely faced-off against some absolute monster tag teams throughout their careers, however, both Matt and Nick have seemingly never crossed paths with two walking behemoths in Akem and Rezar.
During their initial stint as NXT Tag Team Champions, The Authors of Pain went on an absolute tear and destroyed every single tag team on their way to the top in the yellow and black brand and despite not being regularly active on Monday Night Raw in recent weeks, the devastating duo of Authors Pain definitely do posses a huge threat to the entire tag team division in the WWE.
A showdown between the monstrous Authors of Pain and the high-flying Young Bucks will certainly be a very interesting collision and will eventually prove to be the perfect example of ‘David vs Goliath’.
#9 The Young Bucks vs The Bar
Ever since their initial formation in 2016, the duo of Sheamus and Cesaro— collectively known as The Bar—have gone on to become four-time WWE Raw Tag Team Champions, which certainly somewhat proves that the two men have instantly clicked with each other in terms of in-ring chemistry.
In the past, The Bar has competed in some absolutely amazing tag team matches in the WWE in recent years against the likes of The Usos, Seth Rollins, and Dean Ambrose, and also against The New Day as well.
Now, coming to a potential feud between The Young Bucks and The Bar, it is almost certain that the two teams are likely to click with each other in terms of in-ring chemistry, right from the get-go and are bound to put up some mouthwatering matches against each other.
Also, not to mention, in the past, Matt Jackson did tease a possible match against The Bar when he teased accepting Sheamus and Cesaro’s open tag team title challenge for WrestleMania 34.
#8 The Young Bucks vs The Mighty
The Mighty, formerly known as TM-61, are no strangers to Japanese tag team wrestling having competed for Pro Wrestling NOAH for almost five years in their decorated Pro Wrestling careers.
And, The Bucks, on the other hand, have recently captured the IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Titles for the very first time in their careers, after having dominated NJPW’s Jr. Tag Title scene for almost five years as well.
The very-talented duo of Nick Miller and Shane Thorne are currently one of the agilest tag teams in WWE’s developmental brand and a potential NXT Tag Team Title match at a particular NXT TakeOver event between The Mighty and The Young Bucks could only produce fireworks.
#7 The Young Bucks vs War Raiders
Despite working together for New Japan Pro Wrestling in the past, War Raiders (then known as War Machine) never had the chance of working alongside The Young Bucks in Japan, who at that point were a part of NJPW’s Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Division.
Both War Raiders and The Young Bucks have somewhat experienced a very similar journey in the Pro Wrestling world and with Rowe and Hanson currently at the top of their game in NXT, there is definitely a solid chance that the current IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Champions could very well join the former IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Champions in WWE’s yellow and black brand in the near future.
A feud between The Young Bucks and The War Raiders will surely provide some very interesting match-ups, considering the difference between the in-ring style between these two tag teams and despite having faced-off against each other in WCPW, PWG and ROH, a match-up in the WWE promises to be something very different.
#6 The Young Bucks vs Moustache Mountain
Having worked under NJPW for all these years, The Young Bucks are pretty much familiar to the term ‘Strong Style Wrestling’ by now and the duo of Tyler Bate and Trent Seven are also no strangers to strong style wrestling as well, given the fact that the two men tend to approach strong style wrestling in a much more British manner which includes various different transitions from the one we are used to seeing in Japan.
Both The Bucks and Moustache Mountain have previously crossed paths on the Independent scene when The Elite and British Strong Style faced-off against each other at Fight Club Pro event and at a Chikara show as well when The Bucks and AJ Styles squared-off against Team Fight Club Pro featuring Bate and Seven.
In my perspective, I certainly feel that a tag team match between The Jacksons and Bate & Seven will be one to watch out for.
#5 The Young Bucks vs The Undisputed Era
The Undisputed Era is arguably the hottest thing in all of NXT right now and considerably could very well be the most popular faction in all of WWE as well.
The four-man stable of Adam Cole, Roderick Strong, Kyle O’Reilly, and Bobby Fish are currently some of the most over and popular superstars in the entirety of WWE, despite still working from the company’s developmental promotion.
On the other hand, The Bucks are also two of the most popular superstars all around the US and always receive a solid reception from every sort of audience, be it in NJPW or ROH.
If Matt and Nick do sign with the WWE in the future, then they are bound to receive some absolutely amazing ovation from the WWE Universe and when you combine two explosive elements such as The Young Bucks and The Undisputed Era, then you’re bound to get the absolute best reaction.
The Undisputed Era currently has four of the most talented men in their ranks and pitting any two of them against Matt and Nick Jackson could do wonders. In the past, we’ve already witnessed reDragon (Kyle O’Reilly and Bobby Fish) go head-to-head against The Bucks, however, there is definitely no harm in reuniting an old rivalry under WWE circumstances yet again.
On the other hand, a few possible matches between The Bucks against Cole & O’Reilly or O’Reilly & Roderick Strong will be absolutely jaw-dropping as well.
#4 The Young Bucks vs The Revival
If The Young Bucks ever sign with the WWE then this is the feud the entire world will be eagerly waiting for. Despite The Revival’s latest drop in momentum on the main roster, a long and lengthy rivalry against The Young Bucks will do wonders for both parties.
There is definitely no doubt on how talented both Dash and Dawson are together as a tag team and pitting them against The Jackson Brothers will eventually provide us with a much-anticipated bout featuring The Revival’s hard-hitting style and The Bucks’ high-flying in-ring approach.
During The Revival’s astonishing run on NXT, we also did witness a very competitive comparison between them and The Young Bucks regarding the team which deserves the label of the best tag team in the world and despite a lot of back-and-forth between these two teams on Twitter, as of right now, it seems like we might just have to wait a few more months/years to finally settle this discussion to bed.
#3 The Young Bucks vs The New Day
Prior to their social media/cross-promotion feud against The Revival, The Young Bucks along with Kenny Omega were engaged in a social media war against The New Day, this time in order to settle the discussion regarding the better trio stable between The Elite and The New Day.
Following Matt and Nick Jackson’s potential arrival to the WWE, a program with The New Day is certainly going to be imminent and the trio of Big E, Kofi Kingston, and Xavier Woods will look forward to defeating The Bucks once again, following their latest battle against The Elite at the E3 Gaming Convention.
However, inside the squared-circle, it's going to be a totally different story and a clash between the former seven-time IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Champions and the five-time WWE Tag Team Champions is truly going to be phenomenal.
#2. The Young Bucks vs Gallows & Anderson
This one certainly comes in as the most interesting match-up of this lot, considering The Young Bucks and Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows have a long history with each other during their stint together with the legendary Bullet Club in Japan and America.
During their time together in The Bullet Club, The Young Bucks went on to dominate the Jr. Heavyweight Title scene, whereas, The Good Brothers dominated the Heavyweight Tag Title scene, winning the IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Titles on 3-different occasions and during their days together and after with The Biz Cliz, the idea of a dream showdown between The Bucks and The Good Brothers has certainly been thrown around for a while.
A match between these two tag teams will be absolutely amazing and interesting to watch as well and if WWE ever plans to pull off a full-grown feud between these two teams, then they can definitely add a couple of Good Brothers in the mix as well and have Gallows and Anderson team-up with AJ Styles as part of The Club.
Whereas, on the other hand, The Young Bucks could possibly reunite with their former leader Finn Balor and reform The Balor Club and finally go head-to-head against The Club in a mouthwatering feud.
#1 The Young Bucks vs The Usos
A change in gimmick and character for The Usos has definitely turned out to be the biggest turning point for Jey and Jimmy in their WWE careers and ever since then, the two Uso Brothers have also gone on to dominate the entire WWE SmackDown Live Tag Team scene as well.
A rejuvenated Usos have also developed a much better in-ring style and have changed their approach inside the squared circle as well and a match against The Young Bucks could very likely produce the first ever five-star tag team match in WWE history.
Both The Bucks and The Usos have a lot of similarities between them and in the past, the latter has also called out The Jackson Brothers on a few occasions as well, suggesting that the two tag teams go head-to-head against each other in what will be an absolute dream match come true for many fans around the world.
