The Young Bucks had been on a rough streak recently, but they put friendship above cash and reunited the Elite after securing a million-dollar victory at AEW Full Gear 2025. Teaming with Josh Alexander, they defeated Kenny Omega and Jurassic Express in an intense, back-and-forth match.
The battle kicked off with Jack Perry and Nick Jackson trading blows, while Luchasaurus overpowered Matt Jackson early on. Omega joined in, clashing with Alexander, who responded fiercely despite Omega twisting his ankle during a crossbody outside the ring. This injury allowed The Young Bucks and Alexander to regain momentum. Perry tagged in but control shifted when Alexander executed a powerslam on the apron, setting up Matt and Nick to deliver their Risky Business move on Perry.
Perry managed to break free, teaming with Luchasaurus to overpower The Young Bucks and Alexander with a headbutt, chokeslam, and moonsault combo. Perry attempted a double chokeslam, but was met with superkicks from the Bucks. Omega then tagged in, isolating Alexander for a while, but a missed moonsault gave all six wrestlers a chance to take each other down. Omega and Alexander stood first, exchanging strikes until Omega gained the upper hand with a snapdragon suplex and took down the Bucks. Alexander countered with an ankle lock, but while he fought not to submit, Matt and Nick hit the BTE Trigger on Omega.
Despite reaching the ropes and avoiding a TK Driver, Omega was soon aided by Jurassic Express, who leveled the playing field with a Driver. Jurassic Express aimed for the Countdown to Extinction, but Alexander interrupted, allowing Omega to strike back with a V-Trigger just as Perry landed his finisher. Alexander disrupted the pin attempt, leading to a flurry of superkicks from The Bucks. Omega countered outside with a One-Winged Angel on Alexander, but Matt and Nick rolled Perry into the BTE Trigger position, clinching the victory and the million-dollar prize.
Post-match, Don Callis’s group tried to injure Omega, but The Bucks dropped money on the floor and rushed to save him. After shaking hands and hugging Perry and Luchasaurus, the Elite was officially reunited.
Fan Take: This reunion of the Elite at AEW Full Gear shakes up the faction dynamics and revitalizes one of wrestling’s most popular alliances. For AEW fans, it signals exciting new storylines and high-stakes matches ahead, elevating the sport’s drama and entertainment value.
