The Young Bucks have issued statements reacting to a negative fan.

When you are Executive Vice Presidents in All Elite Wrestling like The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson) are, you are going to get a lot of credit for things that happen in AEW, but you will also have your share of critics too.

On Instagram, Nick Jackson posted a photo with his brother Matt with the simple caption “brotherly love” as you can see below.

There are many times when pro wrestlers don’t react to hateful comments, but there are also times when they do reply and that’s what Nick did here. A fan named “pipembombgee” with a CM Punk avatar commented that The Young Bucks are the “cancer of wrestling.”

That led to these replies from Nick and Matt Jackson.

Nick: “haha helping get hundreds of wrestlers and production crew jobs and creating an alternative to wrestling is a weird way to think we’re a cancer to wrestling but please keep thinking that silly.”

Matt: “We changed the business. And we’ll be discredited until the day we’re both buried in the ground. But the ones who know, know. Forever grateful that I’ve not been on this journey alone, so that I know it wasn’t all just a dream. Love ya brother.”

Critics of The Young Bucks might say it was Tony Khan who changed the business since he’s the actual owner of AEW, but obviously, The Young Bucks had a major role in launching AEW along with Cody Rhodes, Kenny Omega, and others.
