The Young Bucks are already feeling the repercussions of their recent defeats in Texas.
The founder of AEW will be competing against Swerve Strickland for the executive vice president role and also faced Will Ospreay at last Saturday’s pay-per-view event. Although Ospreay and Strickland had agreed not to challenge for the world title if they lost, it was the Bucks who ended up on the losing side.
The consequences of the brothers’ declining influence in the company became evident on this week’s episode of Dynamite. Their usual entrance fireworks were removed, and the production team updated the graphics shown on the big screen.
Nick and Matt Jackson teamed up with Hechicero and Josh Alexander to go against Bandido, Brody King, and Jetspede during the show. Hechicero managed to pin Bandido, securing a victory for the heels in this match.
Changes weren’t limited to previous EVPs; the new Unified Champion Kazuchika Okada also debuted a fresh entrance theme following his win over Kenny Omega. Okada secured a swift victory against Strickland as well. You can follow the complete details here.
Fan Take: This shakeup signifies a major power shift within AEW, shaking up established hierarchies and creating fresh opportunities for new stars to rise. For fans, these developments promise exciting storylines and a dynamic evolution in the sport’s landscape.
