The Young Bucks recently explained their actions on this week’s AEW Dynamite as they brutally attacked Sting and Darby Allin.
On last night’s edition of AEW Dynamite, Sting and Darby Allin defeated Ricky Starks and Big Bill to capture the AEW World Tag Team Championship. This marks ‘The Icon’s first title run in the promotion.
The show also received an overrun for the match, which saw thrilling spots, including Sting and Allin hitting Big Bill with multiple Stinger Splashes in the corner. Allin also hit a Coffin Drop on Big Bill to the outside.
In the final moments, Sting executed a Scorpion Death Drop on Starks and captured the tag-team titles.
However, their celebration didn’t last long as the Young Bucks (Matthew and Nicholas Jackson) brutally attacked the new champions.
Young Bucks explain their actions
In a digital exclusive, The Young Bucks commented on their decision to attack the new champs. Apparently, Matthew felt guilty. However, Nicholas noted that they did what they had to do.
Matthew Jackson: What a bummer, man, that Sting and Darby forced our hand and made us do that. That was terrible, I feel awful. Sting’s a freaking legend, and Darby’s a sweet dude.
Nicholas Jackson: He’s an icon. But you know what, as EVPs, we have to do the tough things. We have to make the tough decisions. It’s just business, and we had to do it. There’s no one else in this company that would do what we just did.
“MJ: We gotta protect what’s ours, guys. I hope you understand.
NJ: This is our baby.
MJ: Sting, I hope you feel better.
NJ: This isn’t Sting’s baby.
MJ: Darby, I hope you feel better.
NJ: He’s just happy making a payday. We had to deal with business, and business was that. We had to take care of business.
MJ: We messed up our suits, too. What the hell, guys?
NJ: How the hell are we gonna get this blood out of our $5,000 suits?
MJ: Just really disappointed in you, guys. I called you a role model employee, Sting. Maybe I was wrong. This is what it took to get your guys’ attention? I just wanted a conversation. I just wanted to talk like men. Look at us, we’re covered in your freaking DNA now.
NJ: Business is business.
MJ: Not cool, guys. Not cool.”
